BEAUTIFUL NAILS, REFRESHING LUXURY

Washington D.C.’s luxury eco-friendly nail salon East of the River

We’ve created an inviting and luxurious space where you can indulge in modern conveniences. We use clean and safe products offering unparalleled service. We’ve even taken the guesswork out of choosing a technician. At Nailbed & Bar, you’ll receive the same level of service from all of our trained professionals.

Always serving “Virgin Cocktails”

We enjoy a great thirst quencher. At Nailbed & Bar all of our tools are single-use or medically sterilized and we use high grade organic products including our signature sugar scrub and oil-infused hydrator. We’ve also added a selection of non-toxic, long-wearing “5-free” nail polishes into the mix along with sourcing some of the least harmful gel enhancement products in the market.

In sticking with our wellness mission, we do not offer acrylic nail enhancements or dip powder applications.

Most services are waterless.

BEHIND THE SCENES

Meet Jhavon, also known as Jay, the creator of Nailbed & Bar

She’s usually the quiet one in the corner or amongst the smiling faces that greet you as you enter. After spending years in the beauty industry she was determined to create what was missing. Sure, there are many salons all across the city but none that met the standards of what she believed a luxuriously refreshing destination should be. A salon that takes pride in the community it serves while never forgoing the element of the experience. Nailbed & Bar is a retreat where everyone is a special guest and every service is paired with a glass.
