Yesterday, SobeSavvy.com along with other invited guests celebrated the Grand Opening of Polished Nail Bar, Raleigh’s newest premier nail and waxing salon located in downtown’s hip Glenwood South District. The VIP Party gave local bloggers, influencers and media a chance to enjoy complimentary beverages, light bites and a free basic manicure while learning all about Polished Nail Bar and its services!
As soon as I walked in the door, I noticed the inviting decor featuring luxury pedicure thrones. I felt that this would be a fun, pampering experience and indeed it was! This is the first location outside of the Charlotte metro area, where they are popular for offering superior customer service, along with speedy service , affordable prices in a top-notch, healthy, clean environment.
“This is our seventh location, our first outside of the Charlotte metro area,” explains co-owner Sonny Kim. “We’re beyond excited to be in a new city and to offer our particular brand of nail bar experience to an entirely new clientele. We will offer our full range of services at this new location—manicures, pedicures, waxing, as well as our Man-E-Cures and Little Diva menu,” says Kim
After picking from a variety of colors from nail polish brands such as OPI and Essie, I settled down at one of the state-of-the art manicure spots around the manicure bar. I was offered a complimentary beverage which I thought was being served to me as a guest of the event but I learned that each Polished location serves complimentary beverages, including wine and beer. I chose a Mimosa to go along with my midday nail treatment.
I got a basic manicure which included having my nails /cuticles soaked, cleaned, trimmed, filed, buffed, polished and whatever other magic she did! This express service was quick yet done carefully. I appreciated the tools being used were opened for the first time on me and given to me at the end..sorta like a swag bag to compliment my services.
I would definitely recommend a girls day out at Polish Nail Bar. They were fast, efficient, and the flowing mimosas made it fun. Go and enjoy a day of pampering fit for a Queen, King or even your little diva. That’s right they offer services for little girls ten years and younger and Man-E-cures for the men in your life!

Looks like a great mid-day getaway, especially for mommies with little extra time during the day. Had to lol watching the video because I saw a pic of the OPI I’m not Really a Waitress… that is one of my favorite, if not THE favorite, colors…a rich color that looks great on almost everyone!
