About

Element Nail Bar operates two Phoenix salons. The 16th Street location, which the business calls its original, is reached from SR-51 near Uptown Phoenix and Biltmore and has free parking on site. The second salon is Downtown on East McDowell Road. The business describes itself as an artist-led nail salon and says its work is delivered with specialist technique and visible cleanliness.

The menu covers a wide range of gel and extension options. Builder Gel, also called BIAB, is booked under Builder Gel at the 16th Street salon and needs regular visits for fills, repairs or removal over time. Gel-X appointments are generally planned as removal and replacement, and removal of an existing set has to be reserved in advance.

Any existing gel or other product should be disclosed before a booking is confirmed, since removal can change the appointment category and time. Custom nail art is booked as separate time rather than included in a full set. To plan it, guests name the base service, motif, palette, finish and number of detailed nails. Reference images help guide a design but do not reserve time on their own.

Spa pedicures are the longest services on the menu, running from 25 minutes for the Classic to 85 minutes for the Gold Enchantment, each with a timed massage. The Organic Spa Pedicure, for example, includes a mineral soak, botanical exfoliation, callus care, paraffin hydration and a 12-minute massage. The business describes its spa pedicures as restorative, and regular polish is included while optional add-ons are booked separately.

Walk-ins are welcome, though appointments are recommended and can be booked online. The front desk can also help choose a service by phone. The 16th Street salon is open Monday to Saturday 9:30 AM to 7 PM and Sunday 10 AM to 5 PM, and booking times may end before closing. Waxing is listed for the upper lip, chin, eyebrows, sideburns, face and arms. Prices marked with a plus sign are starting prices, and the final cost depends on the service and add-ons chosen.

Each guest is matched with an artist who specializes in the service they choose, and each appointment is given enough time for the work along with a clear service plan.
