Patsy Tavenner: Patsy’s Nail Bar

Patsy Tavenner always loved going to the spa, but she had a hard time finding one that provided great service while being comfortable and friendly. So, after retiring from the government last year, Patsy went about creating exactly what she had wanted as a customer.

Last March, Patsy opened Patsy’s Nail Bar at 1926 Eye Street. She hired experienced technicians that are not just licensed to provide excellent services but also trained to give each client personal care. She also created an environment that is tranquil and inviting – even designing an entire floor that caters to her male clients.

Patsy’s Nail Bar offers a range of services from manicures and pedicures to facials to airbrush makeup. The most popular service, which is also Patsy’s favorite, is the new Shellac manicure that keeps nails look great for weeks.

In addition to providing high quality, professional services, the Nail Bar focuses on its clients’ well-being. “The experience is more than just aesthetics,” says Patsy. “It’s also about health and wellness.” Next time you need to update your beauty regimine or just need a little pampering, stop by Patsy’s Nail Bar.
