I came in at 12n looking for just a pedicure. I was told it would be 20 minutes. It's now almost 1pm and I've been sittting with my feet in water the whole time. Someone finally just came and started to do my toenails and then got up to help someone else make an appointment. I was then apologized to and told they were very busy.  I'm one of 3 people here with 5 workers. 2 workers are working on 1 person. Dashing diva really needs to start being more customer oriented Read Less

Came with a gf for the first time.  Picked out a color for gel manicure.  As they do, after the first finger was shown, I approved and they proceeded.  Not until after all my nails were done did we notice that the polish didn't quite cover my white nail tips.  It looked terrible.  The owner kept says my it was bc the color was too sheer.  So I wanted to change color.  The owner was pretty rude about it and kept complaining about the additional work they'd have to do to remove and redo.  Too bad bc I'm not paying 35 for a gel mani and not be 100% satisfied.  Of course it wasn't until the end when the owner was being extra nice.  Too late.  Won't go back.  Gave it 2 stars instead of one bc of the second nail tech that redid my nail.  She was super nice and very knowledgeable.  She said that if it were her, knowing that those kinds of polish tend to spread when applied, she would've flashed my fingers under the heat individually so it would set the polish.  And then proceed.  She offered to do my nails in the original color I wanted but I said it's ok and that I don't want to get in trouble AGAIN by the owner.  Wish I got her name so I can recommend to yelpers.  Won't go back.

Very disappointed. I came here on friday to get my nails done. By Saturday I have lost two nails since the acrylics were not out on properly and wouldn't hold on. I go back on Sunday to get them fixed and they did but with attitude. By today (Monday) I again, lost one nail. I believe the material they use is too low to be able to hold onto the nail bed because I have been getting my nails done for years and I never ever had this happen. Awful job and I would never return even they told me I could get my nails done for free next time. It's not worth the trouble an time. Read Less

I was (and still looking) for this particular nail polish/design that looks like you have mirrored nails. Meaning when the polish is applied and dried, your nails look like glass mirror! I've seen in on the internet and was excited to see if any nail salon knew what I was referring to. The usual place I go to in Queens Village didn't offer that service.-Anyhoo, I made some calls and came across Dashing Diva. I specifically asked if they provided what i was looking for and described to the lady on the phone, she told me, yes, we do  that.-Hearing her say that, made me dance and jump for joy! I'm thinking, "Finally, after a lot of searching, a nail salon, not too far away from me, has what I'm looking for.-I go there and told the lady that I called before coming in reference to the glass mirror nails and even showed her a picture on my phone.-She said, "No, sorry we don't do this." I was like, "Wth?" -Disappointed face--She then showed me metallic stickers and thought I was referring to that!-I was like, No, No, that is not what I want.-I figured I was there, why not just get a regular manicure done. I asked the price and it was $15.00 (Not surprising, considering the pricey neighborhood, Great Neck).-So I chose a raspberry color and the nail technician was very quiet.-She cleaned my nails, cut them, and then I got with her to go to this area where you dip your hand into this hot waxy thing! OUCHHHHHHHH! She did not even tell me how or what she is doing, she just took my hand and proceeded to dip it into hell!-My skin wasn't peeling off, It wasn't that hott, but it was hot enough! At least warn me, or give me a heads up as to what you're doing.-I don't recall if I left a tip or not for that lady, but I can tell you one thing for sure, it's so not worth the $15.00.-The salon is tidy and very clean and polished (pun intended).-One star was taken away because whoever I spoke to on the phone, clearly did not understand what service I wanted.-A second star was taken away for that inconsiderate nail technician who did my manicure.-Another star was removed b/c my hand got burned and that was not cool.

I expected much better service for the money they charged. Otherwise staff is nice; even though something you think they don't understand what you want and don't follow your directions. Won't come back for sure. Read Less

I have been a regular client here since they opened. Recently, there has been a decline in service. Today, I had an appointment for a mani/pedi at 1:30. The owner, Connie who knows me, had me wait "five minutes" which turned into a half hour. This was after she served people who walked in after me and had later appointments. The woman who was doing my nails, had a terrible cold. She was coughing, sweaty and had a runny nose. She spent most of my pedicure coughing on me after she told me to roll up my pants. Last I checked, it is not sanitary to be coughed on. My manicure was a disaster, there were bumps and bubbles. When I complained to Connie on my way out, she laughed. She said the woman wasn't sick, she had allergies. I said being coughed on repeatedly is not what I pay $50 for. When I said it wasn't right to make an appointment then have me wait over a half hour compiled with the horrible mani/pedi she continued to giggle. This is not the service I once got here. Given how many nail salons are in Great Neck, you would think Dashing Diva would treat its clients with respect. This will no longer be my go to nail salon. I am truly disgusted by the way I was treated today. Read Less

I usually do my manicure by myself, but was feeling lazy and frivolous. I've always heard about dashing diva, so I gave it a try. I went in, quickly greeted. Originally I wanted just clear, but the manicurist insisted so she helped me pick a natural color. Sit down, she opens a package of supplies, and gets to work. She starts small talk and then tells me I have "nurse hands" which honestly I don't think she meant it in a good way. But I wasn't insulted because I know my hands were not in the best shape hence - the trip to the salon. The manicure was quick, she scrubbed my hand, gave a little massage, and included some aromatherapy scent - opted for lavender. The whole manicure + dying time took 30 minutes. The cost for a basic manicure was $15, which is almost double my usual nail place. Now, this place is quick and most importantly, sanitary. My manicure is still looking good status post 1 shift at work and 2 casual days. I usually bring my own supplies, but this was worth it bc I didn't have my supplies at hand at the moment and didn't want to contract any mysterious diseases lurking. Read Less

This is probably the cleanest, nicest nail place I've ever gone to. I've had numerous different people do my nails and toes, and they all did a great job. Also, they have an LED manicure which lasts about 3 weeks, and doesn't have UV light like usual gel manicures have. The pedicures are great there too, they always last me a long time. Everyone there is very professional, love this place! Read Less

I was recommended to this place by a friend. She warned me it was a little expensive but worth it. She recommended Gina. I had a wedding to attend so I figured I treat myself. Totally excited, I made an appointment to get a full set and a pedicure. When I got there they were extremely friendly. I sat in the pedicure chair right away but no one attended me for 20 min. Which I didn't have a problem with. I gave myself plenty of time.  Finally, a nice lady (idk her name) attended me & the pedicure was amazing. Half way thru the pedicure Gina steps in. She did polish & off we go to do my full set.  I'm now running late. Still, I decided to go thru with the full set. I've had my nails done plenty of times and quickly realized she wasn't that skilled. Giving her the benefit of the doubt I didn't say a word. Until I realized my nails were all different shapes and sizes. I spoke up and told her they look unfinished and she said she would fix it that I shouldnt worry. End results they were still crooked. What made it worse was It took her 2 hours.  Frustrated & late for this event, I told her I needed to go.  I checked out and my bill was $150!!!! Appalled, I said how?? My nails alone was 100$. & pedicure was 45$ ( which I was cool with cuz that was worth ever penny!) You would think I had crazy designs done on my nails. Nope, I just had reg gel polish. I don't know if I got conned but 100$ seemed outrageous. I wouldn't recommend this place for getting fake nails put on but def recommend for pedicure & manicure. Everyone was nice a friendly.

Great salon  since I get my nails done every week, I have been to a lot of nail salons. You pay a little extra. But it's worth it. They don't up charge one dollar for everything. Treat yourself your worth it and so is Dashing Diva. Read Less

One of the best nail salon experiences I've had in a long time.  The place is SO clean, decorated well, and staff was extremely friendly.  And the manicure I got is fantastic.  I definitely feel like I got my money's worth.  I will be back for sure. Read Less

This place is very nice, very clean, and doesn't have those nail polish smell. price is a bit higher than many other nail salons, but for a germ phob person like me....in my personal opinion, it is still worth it. The only down side is that they don't have many colors available for gel nails=( Read Less
