I go here every two weeks for dip nails and they never disappoint! All of the techs are very nice and accommodating to what you want done. Today in particular I had them switch the powder color halfway through because I ended up not liking it, and they were so nice and professional about it. They know what they are doing and I never have to wait long to be helped. The prices are also very reasonable. Read Less

Wish I could give 0 stars to this place. Today I received the most painful manicure of my life. Amber the manicurist started by drilling my nails so much that they still ache. She cut my cuticles in 5 different places resulting in heavy bleeding. This opens not only me but others up to infections such as MRSA and hepatitis. The people working at this salon do not care about your comfort or your safety. Will never come here again and if you’re thinking of getting services here don’t!! I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and I’m regretting it! Read Less

I used to make fun of the name of this nail place. I don't anymore. I don't know that it's "D'Best" but they get the job done. Most of the nail techs are friendly. The basic pedicure service gets you a nice calf massage, exfoliating treatments, hot rags, a massage chair and your toes painted for $27. They do a great job of dealing with my problematic ingrown toenails and make my feet look pretty for about the same as the copay I'd have to pay my doctor just to deal with the ingrown nail issue. I'd say that's a big win for me. Read Less

I got a full set of acrylics, and they were very well done and relatively inexpensive. Also the color selection is great. The staff is super fun and the overall atmosphere is very comfortable and inviting. I would highly recommend this salon, especially for college students like myself. Read Less

Love this nail salon I have been coming here for over a year and have never been disappointed with my nails. They take their time and make your nails look fabulous! They are also super kind and always strike up a conversation. I recommend this salon to anyone Read Less

I recently moved to the area and was really looking for a place to start getting my nails done. I did a lot of research on reviews/recommendations and settled on D'Best. Let me start by saying my nails looked great in the end. I got almond shaped acrylics - loved them. They do a great job, if only their attitude was a little different. The woman who did them was completely rushed - to the point where she missed a lot of things (cutting cuticles, filing excess clippings, etc). I would have looked past that. HOWEVER, she was so completely rude to me I was near walking out. I asked a question about an accent nail and she told me "its expensive" -- oh okay, thanks for assuming my bank account balance. I think she was just too busy to do it. Then I asked another question about the accent nail and she said in a stern rude voice "I already told you". I asked her to cut my nails a little bit shorter and she  told me it would look bad so she wouldn't do it. Her overall tone and rudeness completely turned me off. I will say, the men who worked there were super friendly and nice.I needed to get my nails filled in and went to Bardstown Rd Nails and they did a great job. As she was doing my nails she kept asking me where I got my nails done before because they did an extremely rushed job. Side note - Bardstown Nails was super busy and the woman had to leave me a couple of times. I didn't care as she gave such great attention to my nails. I tried giving a $10 tip and she crossed it out and said she wouldn't  accept my tip because I had to wait. I'll continue to give me business to Bardstown Road Nails from here on out. Read Less

I have visited this salon on a regular basis, but today I'm moving my business elsewhere.The nail tech (Leann) on the other hand.....extremely rude! Not only was she talking to everyone except me and was on her phone (seems very common at this location) but then argued with me about my desired nail length. There are many nail techs and salons in the city, so I'll highly recommend trying one except this one. Read Less

I like this place sometimes. Today I went to get an eyebrow and facial wax. Why did it cost me $35!? I can get my nails done for cheaper and it's less labor intensive and takes like 5 minutes. The prices are always wishy washy. All and all I would suggest going somewhere, anywhere else but here for any waxing needs! Read Less

My bff and I have tried a lot of salons around town for our mani-pedi lady dates. We went here earlier today to give this place a try and it has by far been D'Best for us ;-)Our technicians, Bebe and Ki were very nice and friendly and we enjoyed our time there while getting pampered. We are also both very happy with our nails (especially with the awesome prices). I will definitely be returning. Bff says the same thing. That's a first for us a both and I think says it all.

I went during my lunch time because usually after work they are pretty busy. I was going in for gel nails with a little design. I was sat down at a table immediately. They started to soak the gel from my previous mani off. I had asked before I got started if it would take more than an hour because this is my lunch break. He said it wouldn't but I was there for about an hour and 30 mins. Now usually I am in and out of there so this was unusually. I wish he took more consideration to the fact that I needed to leave but so many customers were coming in that they were spread thin. Plus, they were trying to get breaks and eat their lunch while they could. My nails turned out well but I hated that he made me late. I wish he would have focused on me only and not try to juggle so many people at the same time. Read Less

I'm here for work and was in need of a refill. Read reviews and thought it was a good place... the employees were nice but I felt like the lady was in a rush after people walked in. She took a look at my nails prior to starting anything and she clearly saw that the previous acrylic was thin, my nails are long and they looked natural and pretty. When she finished I swear my nails looked like toe nails and fake. I'm so mad! Horrible job and in a rush. Will not be coming back. Paid $32 for a refill/shellac. Read Less

I came in at around 1:45 and I immediately signed in, picked my color and sat down. The staff are friendly and quick. I got my nails done with the coffin/ballerina shape at another salon about 3 weeks ago and I thought they were okay. I live in the neighborhood and chose this salon because of the decent reviews and how close it was to my home. Starting out the woman who did my nails immediately reshaped my coffins to a more precise and sharp cut. Something that the previous salon didn't do! I had to get a fill in, and two replacement nails done and she did excellent, except for one thing.. two of my nails are bulkier than I would like, even after sanding down. All together you wouldn't notice, but of course I do. I will return for sure! I was sat down to begin drying my nails at 2:40. I left at 3! Read Less

I went to D'Best to get a mani/pedi before an event over the weekend and it was D'Worst. I will never go back after my experience. The salon has dirty looking towels. They looked really gross. The mani/pedi itself is not too bad. They did not do a good job of filing my nails smoothly and I've had a couple of snags. they also did not get all the nail polish stains off my fingers when they removed the polish from my last manicure.The main reason for my complaint is the extremely unprofessional employees who were working the day I was there. There were three males working and two of them had very strong opinions on everything. One of them was friendly and he did my pedicure. He asked me a few questions and we made small chat. The other chatty guy was working on two women across the aisle and he was so loud. He was trying to make joke after joke, but neither myself nor those women were amused. When it was time for my manicure the loud guy was my technician. He insisted on commenting on the other conversations going on around us and was so loud. When the topic of Bill Cosby came up both the talkative nail technicians voiced their opinion that the women "were asking for it" because they went to a hotel room with him. I said if the women did not consent then it was rape. They did not like that at all. They kept trying to get me to change my mind. I told them I did not agree with them and I never would. Then my nail tech told me that's why America is so great, because we can disagree about things but  still speak our minds and then kept talking about it. Other very unprofessional conversations spoken at a high volume included: 1. How they weren't sure if Kris Jenner hooked up with OJ and Khloe was his daughter. 2. Jeffersonville and Clarksville were originally part of Kentucky and not many people know that. 3. Martha Stewart is an actress they bet she can't even cook in real life. 4. Gordon Ramsey is also an actor, because they've been to fancy restaurants a lot in their life and they've never seen anyone act like that. 5. The guy who started the Bunny Ranch is a genius because men will pay for it and it's legal there (they talked a lot about that one, that's what segued into the Khloe convo). 6. How he got thrown off a Carnival cruise ship and banned for life for throwing lounge chairs off the boat into the ocean while he was drunk (he swore a few times during that story). In addition to the inappropriate conversation, my nail tech had a coffee drink from McDonald's on the table that he was drinking from while he was doing my nails.I live nearby and I'd been here before because it is convenient for me, but I will drive the extra mile from now one because they were so awful!

This is my first review of this nail salon based on my first visit. I have been to several shops in Louisville, but have not been impressed with any of them whether or not it's the painting skills, lack of cuticle trimming or harsh trimming, and a total lack of removing all dead skin during pedicures.I was lucky enough to see LeAnn and as you can see by the pictures she is very good with designs. So good, that I decided to get a design on my toes which is not like me in November! What I was most impressed with was LeAnn's attention to detail. My regular express mani, $12 bucks looks like gel polish and the shape and cuticle trimming were wonderful. My hands look new! However, the best part of the experience was the pedicure which lasted at least an hour and included three scrubs, paraffin wax, hot towels, etc. Again, LeAnn was thorough with the massaging, but most importantly she got all the dead skin off my feet which were terrible! They are so so smooth and soft! I will definitely be back! Read Less
