A young, new girl did my pedicure about a month and a half ago. She was 100% inexperienced. She cut three of my toes with the edge of the file. She forgot she cut me and the nail polish remover killed! I did not want to tip, but I did anyway. I walked out completely disappointed. The website is misleading. It does not say anywhere that it is located in Walmart. My sister didn’t realize it was the same place I went to when she booked pedicures and we cancelled our appointments. Read Less

Note: Photo is for nails 2 weeks grown out. Fantastic acrylic ombre / french fade / baby-boomer nails. I rarely have my nails done and was traveling in NH 2 weeks ago when I searched for the best in the best. This photo is 2 weeks later and they still look fabulous. Fingers crossed my local spot in Chicago can mimic Da Vi Nails quality and aesthetic as well as they originally executed. Don't expect diamonds and champagne atmosphere from this location; if you are looking for quality craftsmanship this is the place! Read Less

I got them painted (not shellac) and they've lasted me all week!!! I work with computers all day and there are no chips or anything! I'm writing this post on Thursday and I got them done Sat morning!

I came to Da Vi during the snowstorm this afternoon-I usually go to a specific salon in Dover, but was in Somersworth and figured I would try something else. I called a few salons before this one, that probably closed early because of the weather. I went to the first salon that answered because I desperately needed my nails done, but also wanted to get home ASAP. I was skeptical with the salon being in Walmart, but it was decently clean compared to many others I have seen. I believe it was the owner that did my nails, because he said he sent everyone else home. I got a regular gel manicure, and the price was good for the service provided over all. $10 cheaper to be exact compared to the salon in Dover by Shaw's. He held conversation with me and I was impressed with the amount of work he did cutting down my cuticles to perfection. He did seem in a bit of a hurry however to get my gels off, which I'm not sure why because there were no other customers! I would recommend this place-and go back-because the quality vs. price was a good balance. I felt bad that he couldn't break the cash I had on me so I could have tipped him better. Hopefully my new gels hold up! Read Less

Ive been here about two times. I read previous reviews about a woman whose nails became infected after her manicure. I still gave them a try. First visit i had no issues with my pedi the women who did it was great! I did although have issues with my mani. The womens children were there hovering over the table complaining along with her husband. I have my own kids and husband and i come to the nail salon to relax and have me time. That completely ruined it for me. My second visit i had the same women who did my mani last time now do my pedi. I was not thrilled abiut that. I believe it was the owner who did my mani, overall he did a great job, wasnt very gentle and not once did i see him check the length to make sure it matched up with my other hand. Long story short here i am about three weeks since getting them done and one of my fingers has an infection on the side of my nail where the acrylic meets the skin. As well as the same issue with two of my toes. Its extremly painful and i am disgusted. Ive been to many nail salons over the years and have never had this happen. Not once did i see anyone sanitizing or cleaning any of the tools that were used. Save yourself from an infection & dont bother coming here Read Less

After being a customer for more than a decade, and my mother was a customer for even longer than me. I hung in there as a customer, even when I had to wait more than an hour after my appointment time for service. I always tipped well because the service they provided was important to me. Set yet another appointment and again, "sorry, got to wait". Β I'm moving on to a new place because if a business doesn't think their faithful customer is important, I don't want to spend my money there anymore. Read Less

I got the 4 in one pedicure for 36 dollars and it was the best $$ I've ever spent. I chose 'ocean' for the scent. First a soak and scrub, and the cuticles and clipping. Then a sea salt and sugar scrub, hot towels, lotion and heavenly massage. Then hot rocks and polish. Bin did the work and she is adorable. Very nice person who didn't rush or try to skimp on anything. She did a great job. I never would have guessed the best pedicure was inside Walmart - but it is. I hope it doesn't get too crowded in there now. I will be back as a regular customer. Thank you Bin! Read Less

Not too bad of a place and it will do again in a pinch... they DESPERATELY need something that says what each pedicure package contains. I really don't mind when my technician doesn't speak much English, but getting through the process of "what does this one include, and what about this one, and what does this one add to make it more expensive" got old real quick and I definitely settled on a cheaper pedicure and cost them money because I was tired of asking questions a detailed menu could have solved very easily. I checked their counters, signs, website, Facebook... literally nothing of theirs has any kind of description. The staff is nice enough, but don't hold appointment times. I understand I went the Saturday before Easter, but knowing this I made a very timely appointment much earlier in the day. Still, 3 walk ins were seated before me and I had to remind them 10 minutes in of my appointment time they seemed to forget about. The pedicure itself went fine. Not quite the massage and foot scrub I was hoping for, but for the price, it wasn't something too bad. I felt a lot of what was started around my cuticles was left unfinished and very half-done. This isn't a place I would go if I hadn't had a pedicure in a while and wanted serious work done. The polish was done pretty good, but nothing I couldn't do myself (I definitely go for the massage and foot scrub - and since those work only okay, I'll question returning) Read Less

I have been to this place several times, and each time I say it will be my last but always give them another shot. They are VERY busy and VERY understaffed. They give unrealistic wait times and you will also feel rushed and a burden the entire time. I go for a shellac manicure, and each time it has always taken over an hour..oh, and if I already have shellac on my nails, add an extra half an hour to that. I always start with someone who soaks my shellac off...but then leaves me with the foils on my nails for atleast thirty minutes and forgets about me. Someone else then scrapes off my shellac..then usually ANOTHER person actually gets around to doing my manicure. Horrible customer service. And just like the review below...you can't help but notice they give some customers the gold start treatment..but leave me on the back burner for when they get around to me. This place is also filthy with nail clippings all over the tables and chairs that they rarely clean up before the next customer. I gave them multiple chances and they failed to ever attempt to have my loyalty. Read Less

The customer service was lacking at first. I arrived and was told to pick a color and sit at a booth. I was told by multiple people that they would do my nails but they all started with other customers (who may have had appointments). After 20 minutes sitting in the chair I asked what the wait time would be. I was told that someone was almost done and would be right with me. Fast forward 15 more minutes and another woman started me off. Then another woman came and finished off. My nails came out fine in the end. I couldn't help notice that they were much more accommodating and polite to 'certain' demographics that came in. But overall, my nails are done so that is all I can expect. Read Less

I love it here because of the hours. On multiple occasions I have rushed in for a last-minute nail need due to some important event, and there certainly has not been enough time to fit me in but they ALWAYS fit me in and stay late. I'm so grateful for that because working full-time it's hard to plan nails around work. My nails have always come out really great and lasted for a long time.

I'm new to the area, and found this place on yelp so decided to test it out. Overall, they did a nice job on my nails, and the price was reasonable. I will not go back because the place did not appear clean or sanitary. One manicurist had a serious rash all over her arms and kept scratching herself.

I got a regular gel manicure, and the price was good for the service provided over all. $10 cheaper to be exact compared to the salon in Dover by Shaw's. He held conversation with me and I was impressed with the amount of work he did cutting down my cuticles to perfection. He did seem in a bit of a hurry however to get my gels off, which I'm not sure why because there were no other customers! I would recommend this place-and go back-because the quality vs. price was a good balance. I felt bad that he couldn't break the cash I had on me so I could have tipped him better. Hopefully my new gels hold up! Read Less

Ive been here about two times. I read previous reviews about a woman whose nails became infected after her manicure. I still gave them a try. First visit i had no issues with my pedi the women who did it was great! I did although have issues with my mani. The womens children were there hovering over the table complaining along with her husband. I have my own kids and husband and i come to the nail salon to relax and have me time. That completely ruined it for me. My second visit i had the same women who did my mani last time now do my pedi. I was not thrilled abiut that. I believe it was the owner who did my mani, overall he did a great job, wasnt very gentle and not once did i see him check the length to make sure it matched up with my other hand. Long story short here i am about three weeks since getting them done and one of my fingers has an infection on the side of my nail where the acrylic meets the skin. As well as the same issue with two of my toes. Its extremly painful and i am disgusted. Ive been to many nail salons over the years and have never had this happen. Not once did i see anyone sanitizing or cleaning any of the tools that were used. Save yourself from an infection & dont bother coming here Read Less

After being a customer for more than a decade, and my mother was a customer for even longer than me. I hung in there as a customer, even when I had to wait more than an hour after my appointment time for service. I always tipped well because the service they provided was important to me. Set yet another appointment and again, "sorry, got to wait".

I got the 4 in one pedicure for 36 dollars and it was the best $$ I've ever spent. I chose 'ocean' for the scent. First a soak and scrub, and the cuticles and clipping. Then a sea salt and sugar scrub, hot towels, lotion and heavenly massage. Then hot rocks and polish. Bin did the work and she is adorable. Very nice person who didn't rush or try to skimp on anything. She did a great job. I never would have guessed the best pedicure was inside Walmart - but it is. I hope it doesn't get too crowded in there now. I will be back as a regular customer. Thank you Bin! Read Less

Not too bad of a place and it will do again in a pinch... they DESPERATELY need something that says what each pedicure package contains. I really don't mind when my technician doesn't speak much English, but getting through the process of "what does this one include, and what about this one, and what does this one add to make it more expensive" got old real quick and I definitely settled on a cheaper pedicure and cost them money because I was tired of asking questions a detailed menu could have solved very easily. I checked their counters, signs, website, Facebook... literally nothing of theirs has any kind of description. The staff is nice enough, but don't hold appointment times. I understand I went the Saturday before Easter, but knowing this I made a very timely appointment much earlier in the day. Still, 3 walk ins were seated before me and I had to remind them 10 minutes in of my appointment time they seemed to forget about. The pedicure itself went fine. Not quite the massage and foot scrub I was hoping for, but for the price, it wasn't something too bad. I felt a lot of what was started around my cuticles was left unfinished and very half-done. This isn't a place I would go if I hadn't had a pedicure in a while and wanted serious work done. The polish was done pretty good, but nothing I couldn't do myself (I definitely go for the massage and foot scrub - and since those work only okay, I'll question returning) Read Less

I have been to this place several times, and each time I say it will be my last but always give them another shot. They are VERY busy and VERY understaffed. They give unrealistic wait times and you will also feel rushed and a burden the entire time. I go for a shellac manicure, and each time it has always taken over an hour..oh, and if I already have shellac on my nails, add an extra half an hour to that. I always start with someone who soaks my shellac off...but then leaves me with the foils on my nails for atleast thirty minutes and forgets about me. Someone else then scrapes off my shellac..then usually ANOTHER person actually gets around to doing my manicure. Horrible customer service. And just like the review below...you can't help but notice they give some customers the gold start treatment..but leave me on the back burner for when they get around to me. This place is also filthy with nail clippings all over the tables and chairs that they rarely clean up before the next customer. I gave them multiple chances and they failed to ever attempt to have my loyalty. Read Less

The customer service was lacking at first. I arrived and was told to pick a color and sit at a booth. I was told by multiple people that they would do my nails but they all started with other customers (who may have had appointments). After 20 minutes sitting in the chair I asked what the wait time would be. I was told that someone was almost done and would be right with me. Fast forward 15 more minutes and another woman started me off. Then another woman came and finished off. My nails came out fine in the end. I couldn't help notice that they were much more accommodating and polite to 'certain' demographics that came in. But overall, my nails are done so that is all I can expect. Read Less

On multiple occasions I have rushed in for a last-minute nail need due to some important event, and there certainly has not been enough time to fit me in but they ALWAYS fit me in and stay late.
