I'm so sad to have to update my review for this shop. I used to LOVE going there - the husband and wife team that owned the shop were thorough and kind. This was NOT the experience I had last Friday, when I went in for a mani/pedi. There was an entirely new staff working at the shop now. When I asked the technician what happened, she said that they had new owners. They had more employees working, but while this meant we didn't have to wait as long, this did nothing to improve the quality of the services we received. When I sat down to get my pedi, the water was scalding hot. I asked her to adjust the temperature; she ran a tiny bit of cold water, but it was still too hot. I asked her to adjust it again, and nothing was done (not sure if she didn't hear me, or was ignoring me; either way, not good). She then proceeded to scrape my leg more than once with the cheese grater thing they use for the feet. I told her she was hurting me and asked her to be more gentle. She laughed. I'm not sure if she didn't understand me or was just a jerk, but either way, it sucked. To top it off, she took a chunk out of my thumb when she was trimming my nail. She apologized - but quite frankly, it was the worst experience I've had in forever. The only reason I gave them two stars instead of one is because my mani/pedi looks good. I won't be back. read more

I have beautiful nails, staff is very friendly, the shop is clearly. In the weekend i will come back to do pedicure deluxe to relax read more

D&B Nails - Nail Salons Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

Quiet and unassuming it doesn't promise anything it can't deliver. I had a basic pedi for $22 and Tim spent a good amt of time cutting, trimming and pumicing my heels. Large selection of polishes both regular and gel. Has the usual shellac odor but not overwhelming and I have asthma. Instruments are disposable packs opened in front if you as you soak so I'm quite pleased. Will return and definitely recommend. read more

A-ok! Not meant to be a spa/salon experience. This is for the quick and dirty pedicure in between errands. Except that it's quick and not dirty. I repeat, not dirty. The guy I had took the nail trimmer out of one of those sealed packages, and the shop itself, while not fancy or sparkling, was a pretty standard nail place that you would find in a Los Angeles strip mall. Massage chairs, of course, are always nice to have, though it's irksome to be reminded that you are short when the shoulder massage starts on your head. He did a base coat, 2 coats of nail polish, and a top coat in just a few minutes. There was some minimal scrubbing and no use of a vegetable peeler, even though my heels probably could have used a little more. Anyway, it appears you can get a longer experience with hot stones etc. for $25 rather than the $22, and there may even be another option for more pampering, but I didn't ask about it (just saw something on the menu of services). Pretty basic stuff, but reasonably well done and at a decent price compared with other places around here. read more

I wish Yelp could offer a zero star option just for this place. My pedicure/toenail polish lasted all of two hours. I was wearing flip flops, let my toes dry...all the right things. It also took about two hours to complete because my pedicurist kept jumping up every 10 minutes to care for someone else. He was having a loud awkward conversation with a friend of his that came in to visit. I don't like to make snap judgements but she came in the salon with filthy pajama pants and proceeded to eat while sitting at a nail station. Aside from the general unpleasantness, the worst was the practice and cleanliness. My pedicurist was not at all hygienic, I got the most awful gut feeling and honestly I nearly told him to stop working so I could leave about 5 times. I'm so angry at myself for not speaking up at the time. I wasted my time, money and I spent days checking my toes for cuts, scrapes and every itch made me nervous. I would suggest driving/paying/parking anywhere - literally anywhere else - to avoid going to this place. I'm editing to add: I did report this place to the board of cosmetology. read more

I don't splurge on a mani/pedi often, and usually prefer doing them myself. I've honestly gotten about 10 pedicures in my lifetime. D&B is a block from my house, and is my go to place when I have the extra time and cash. The husband and wife that own it are super friendly! My mom insisted on going 10 minutes before close for a pedicure (gah I know) and I tried to get them to tell her 'no' but they still wore smiles throughout and did a great job. The prices are good, the message chairs are fancy and comfy, and the nail tools are new- literally. They take them out of the package pre-mani/pedi and throw them out after. 5 stars to D&B! read more

Stopped here yesterday on a whim. Was advised (by a 12 year old) they take walk-ins, so I waited. The young boy who was helping should have been a huge red flag, but I waited. After about 30ish minutes, a tech asked me what I was having done. Advised her just a manicure and I showed her a picture of what I was looking for. Basically it was a french manicure, but with orange and blue. She looked at my nails and said no problem, it would just be a few more minutes to wait. Then, another nail tech came by, asked me the same questions. I showed him my picture and he said they couldn't do that! What?! Will not be giving them a second chance!! read more

I have been to D&B Nails a few times now. The price is great and the people are very nice but I have noticed that the quality is mediocre. I just went last night to get my acrylic nails filled and they look terrible. They are just clear acrylic with white tips and there is a VERY definite line where the new acrylic meets the old. I am very upset by this and that they would let me walk out looking like that! I have engagement pictures and am just hoping that the line doesn't show up in them! read more

Very rude people who run this place. Do not know what customer service is. That's okay they lost business! They were just close but now I will travel that extra distance. Don't ever get your face waxed here. Oh yeah and if you have an appointment doesn't matter someone who doesn't have an appointment can take yours. And you will sit for 30 min with your feet in water while he finishes her. Thought that was terrible made my appointment at 1:15 because I work..... made an appointment for Wednesday and I think the woman got mad she had to fix my wax three tomes be SHE missed spots... for 55.00 it better be right lol... anyways she says she can't do my nails now for personal reasons. Ok.... squeeze me in at a different. I work in customer service and that right there is awful!! So someone can take my appointment but now you can't rearrange. did not feel right. read more

Loved the experience! Base coat, two coats polish, top coat! Great massage! Really enjoyed the mani/pedi! read more

My friend and I got Shellac here last night and had a nice time! Everyone was friendly and I didn't get the feeling of being an annoyance like some places. While there was a 20 min wait as walk-ins, our technicians (both male) did a great job. They got new management a few months ago so don't let past reviews sway you too much. No complaints, no upsells, overall very positive experience. read more

This is my favorite nail spa I have ever been to and I will never go anywhere else! The whole team is great and Pam always does a fantastic job. Even during covid the quality of service has not dissipated and the team is taking the best precautions necessary - I feel super safe and know I'm in great hands! Thanks! read more

So... I have tried to like this place so hard. I really like the woman who does my nails, however I think I've only been truly satisfied with one manicure. Made an appointment last week and was so excited to have my nails done after Months of no manicures. Asked for a dip manicure which is my usual. Pam, who did my nails, didn't give me a manicure at all. Just took off my old polish, dipped my nails in ONCE in the dip when they usually do it twice, and charged me $50. I wouldn't mind had I actually gotten the full treatment. Not only that, but parts of my nails had missing spots where the powder didn't set and within about 5 days all my nails are chipping off, which has never happened with the dip. So, after numerous visits where I they have cut me to the point where I bleed and just don't offer the best service, I'm finished. Also, I don't think it's professional to refer to all your female customers as "dear." read more

Super disappointed in the service I didn't receive.... I made an appointment for 4:30. I showed up at 4:25 for my appointment, but the nail tech I was scheduled with took another person right before I got there and had just started with her. Right when i got there, i was told it would only be a few minutes until my turn. I sat there and waited until 5:10 (40 minutes) and when I stated that I had to leave, they tried to tell me to wait another 10 minutes. Such a bad first impression. Thanks for wasting my time instead of just telling me that it was going to be an hour wait.... with an appointment. read more

The place is nice and the music is awesome..not a big reg polish selection. but the employees are rude and two people told me two different prices for a polish change (non gel) on hands and feet one said $25 which is what i typically would pay ...But then I was told $40. For a non gel polish change. They didn't clean the polish off my fingers that was left and the didn't fully polish the whole nail... honestly I feel like it was a rip off $40 for polish that will only last 3 days and it wasn't a "perfect" job !!! Don't waste your time. Or money. Thank me later read more

Nice place neat work and very. Nice employees. It's looks like they do facials next time I will explore everything read more

D&B Nails - Very neat. Clean facility and nice employees - Nail Salons Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

I don't know why this place has such awful reviews! They were friendly, the place was clean, and they did a great job on my nails :-)

First time coming to D&B nails today and I can say I'm a huge fan! All the workers are super friendly and all do really great work! I felt very comfortable being here, I got a full set and pedicure I'm a very happy customer and will be back again! Thank you D&B nails read more

Terrible gel set that was overpriced. One nail fell off the next day because they were so thin.

This place is by far the worst nail salon I've ever been to. The prices were not displayed correctly, as I was charged $6 more than what was shown on the display. The wait was super long. My experience was truly not a relaxing one. The lady that did my nails was super aggressive with everything she did; filing my nails, clipping my nails, turning my hands, massaging my hands, etc. I paid for a manicure which includes a hand massage and she spent a total of 30 seconds on both hands combined. This place has all around terrible customer service which really makes a bad client experience. I don't recommend this place to anyone. read more

$50 for a weak ass pedicure and ok shellac manicure. Could have done as good myself. No thrills not very pleasant place.

Went here looking for some place new to try and I was very unimpressed. The girl who did my pedi spoke zero English so she had not idea what I was telling her. I do not like to be cheese grated on my heels it feels weir and thats exactly what she did. I asked her not to numerous time and she continued to do so. The only saving grace here is the chairs. read more

I think my nails looked nice but I was overcharged and the guy gave me things I didn't ask for. I said I just wanted an acrylic set of nails and he did gel and charged me for it. It was almost $50. He asked if I wanted regular polish or not and I said yes I did want regular. Just feel like I got scammed because I did not ask for this. My sister went here before and they called her a dumbass, so I was really hesitant on giving them a try but I gave in, and I wish I didn't. Not only did I pay $50, but the nails on an entire hand fell off. I went back in to have them fixed and they kept falling off. The employees told me I just had oily nail beds and I shouldn't get acrylics. I went to another nail salon when it was time to get the nails redone and not a single nail came off. Weird my oily nail beds disappeared. DO NOT GO HERE. read more

New owners since my last visit over a year ago. Very friendly staff, greeted with a smile. Great service, I will be back soon!

Fast friendly reliable this is my go to nail salon the husband and wife are super nice :)

Today was the only time I visited. And I wouldn't advise this place. I called twice and asked about pricing and got a good deal, but then when it came time to pay, the price went up. And then they made me bleed by digging too deep in the cuticle. And then rubbed more polish over it. Which is unsanitary! So nope. Not going back! read more

I have tried to stop here about 4 times over the last few months and it is always closed even though posted hours say it should be open. They did a fantastic job waxing my eyebrows, the prices were on point, and the pedicure massage was nice. But they did cut my toe and my shellac on my manicure stuck and sealed my nail to my skin. I won't be stopping in anymore since they are sporadically closed but if they had not been I would've continued coming only to get my eyebrows done. read more

Just went yesterday for the first time. Had a pedicure. The massage chair was nice, staff was friendly, however the guy who worked on me filed the skin too much on one part if my foot and I now have a raw, sore wound. Not sure if I will give them another shot. read more

Meh. Walked in on a Saturday.... They were not busy, had only 2 people working. Great massage chair, mediocre pedicure. One coat of colored polish, and didn't get the tips of the nails on a few of my toes. But...... My feet are happy to have had a pedicure, and $22 is a good price... read more

Called in to find out pricing for mani / pedi the gentleman who answered the phone did not understand the question and hung up me.

Fixed my nails for me after being very unsatisfied and the male tech was very understanding and kind about my concerns. Very happy after being quite upset. read more

I went to D & B Nails for the first time yesterday and I had a wonderful experience. Anna did a traditional manicure for me and she was terrific. The salon was clean, everyone was friendly and the work Anna did was great. That was one of the best hand massages I have received. This is a full service salon and the price is amazing, I paid $12 for my manicure. I deluxe pedicure with a manicure is only $35! I am going back. read more

Walked in on a Sunday and got Service right away. The chairs are amazing & they had many colors to choose from. The shop was clean & the employees were kind! I would return. read more

Worst nail salon I've EVER been to! I went in for a full set, and wanted them stiletto shaped. I showed him a picture of the nail shape I wanted multiple times, and every nail looked different. They were not stiletto shaped, completely uneven, and even the girl next to me said they were uneven as well. I didn't even let him start to shape the other hand when I asked him to just stop and to take them off. He then proceeded to tell me that I still need to pay $20, and I told him I was not going to pay him $20 for taking them off. HE messed them up in the first place! That's why I stopped before he could even get to my other hand. After arguing with me he finally decided to cut off all of my nails. However he purposely ripped up each nail to the point where it actually hurt me. He then cleaned up his things and walked away. I got up and left without a word. That was one of the most childish and unprofessional things I've ever seen someone do. I had to clip all of my nails and file them myself, and am now left with acrylic on my nail that will have to be taken off. That kind of behavior is completely unacceptable. This is what my nails looked like when he was finished "taking them off" like I politely asked him to...... read more

Not a fan at all. I called but no one answered so I dropped in. Once seated, I was bombarded with questions about how my manicurist should handle a personal issue. In the middle of my acrylic set, the manicurist spent several minutes with his back turned, on a personal Facebook PM argument, while I was ignored (no, this was not during a drying session). The personal drama questions persisted after. As a therapist, I feel I should send them a bill for the 45 minute therapy session! Needless to say, my service experience was terrible. My fiancé was disappointed with the thick and clunky nails. I've had acrylics done before that were much better. I'll be continuing my search for a more professional and service-forward establishment in the area. read more

Went to get eyebrows waxed. The lady had no idea what she was doing. Ended up geting wax Iin my hair then put baby oil in it to try and get the wax out of my hair. Globbed wax no where near eyebrows then put strip on the wax and just lifted off. Needless to say, my eyebrows were unrtouched. She spoke absolutely no English so I couldn't communicate with her. Had horrible music blaring in another language with a woman just screaming over and over again. Will never go back again. read more

I am never one to write a bad review, but this is absolutely necessary after what I experienced at this nail salon today. I walked in to get a shellac manicure, something I have gotten many times at other salons, but it was my first time coming to this salon. My experience seemed normal enough until it came time to paint on my shellac. I had chosen a deep vampy red that was almost black and when she painted it on it was bright pink and incredibly streaky. Thinking this is fairly normal for a first coat, I waited until the second coat to start worrying. Second coat was no better. Still bright pink, still streaky. My manicurist swore that it would get better with a third coat, it didn't. I told her I was not happy with how things were turning out and she went and searched for a new crappy polish and began to paint it over my existing polish to try and darken it. This, of course, made it worse. I told her just to finish my mani because I was getting upset and I wanted to leave. At this point, the owner of the salon walked outside and my manicurist whispered to me that she knows the shellac polishes they use are bad quality but the owner doesn't care. This is absolutely ludacris to me. She ended up putting 7 coats of shellac on my nails to make them at least presentable. 7 coats. Unreal. I will never ever go back due to the shady business practices. read more

I come here all the time on my lunch break to get a fill or pedicure. They do an awesome job and they get me out in under an hour.

When I first walk in, I notice not alot of people there speak english, But then there was this nice lady who look around her 30 with long hair. She was very nice and ask me what I need to get done. The way she did my feet was amazing. lol not going to lie it been a min but she was very funny and entertainment! Thank you so much for the great service! read more
