Essential Nail Bar works by appointment, and guests can book through its website or its Square booking page. Group bookings are accepted for two or more people.
The menu is grouped into manicures, pedicures, nail services and waxing, with add-ons such as paraffin wax, massage minutes, hot stones and a range of designer polishes. The salon's signature spa-style manicures and pedicures build from a basic hand or foot treatment up to options with bath soaks, scrubs, oil massage and warm stones.
Nail services include Gel-X extensions from Aprés, acrylic full sets and fill-ins, dip powder, gel manicures and a dry e-file Russian manicure. The salon describes itself as one of the few in Michigan offering Gel-X extensions, and a press article reports it has served more than 7,000 clients since opening.
The space is a nail bar of about 2,300 square feet, with Lenox pedicure chairs and complimentary beverages. Technicians stand while they work at the bar, a choice the owner made with technician health in mind.
The salon lists openings for manicurists, estheticians, makeup artists, wax specialists, massage therapists, cosmetic nurse injectors and eyelash extension technicians. Its stated values are to under promise and over deliver, to treat every client like royalty, and to treat communication as central.
