This is before and after ... 0/10 don't recommend!!! The worst set of nails I've ever had! I went in for a gel pedicure and fill in. First- $110 for what I received is crazy. All my nails are uneven/ crooked and bulky. I had one nail missing and he put a nail that is bigger than every other nail. I'm so mad I have to go on vacation with this set. My last set was so perfect i don't know how you have the perfect base for a decent set and mess it all the way up. The owner knows he's messed up for putting me with what seems like the most inexperienced person in there... read more

I used to frequent this nail spa from 2010-2012 or so. It was your typical spa with nothing spectacular, although the work was always great enough to return. I eventually started frequenting other popular Waldorf salons that opened up... Fast forward to 2019, I visit Davis for the first time in a while. Their new facelift brings a peaceful ambiance while you're getting pampered. It is very clean and all technicians that assisted me gave 5 star quality. David himself was there and was also friendly. I think I've found my forever home back with this salon! ATM is available for tips- they deserve it. Services rendered: gel pedicure & 2 broken nail repairs and new dip powder application (Annie). Annie was gentle with my severely broken nails. Her execution was perfect. Neither she nor the male technician doing my pedicure gave me the impression that they were rushing me to leave. Only suggestion is to offer refreshments read more

Went in on Friday night for a gel pedicure and dip manicure. By Saturday morning, my dip manicure was lifting and while washing my hair; the hair was getting caught in the nails. This is normal if it would've been 2 weeks or sometimes even 4 weeks. One of my nails, the dip had also cracked off. The gel on a big toe had also smeared. I went in to get this fixed and showed owner the issue. I was able to easily lift off and crack another nail. I told him that I think the gentlemen who helped me forgot to put on base coat. I just told him to please remove the dip powder so I went home with no polish on. I got no money back and the total paid with tip was $145. I only went here because my friend had a gift certificate. Today Monday she sent me a pic of her gel polish and it's also smeared on her nails. So it could be the tech or I believe is the quality of their products. read more

I went here because I just found out the guy I've been going to for months had left. Of course they're closed the day I absolutely had to get them done. Anyhow, I went on Yelp as I usually do to check out reviews of nail places in the area and came across Davis Nails. Someone raved about a nail tech here in which I went in and requested. I was very confident and excited being this is a new place, for me, and it was beautiful inside. I will leave the photos down below and let you decide if this was decent or not. For me, I was utterly disappointed and I will never return! For those who might not be able to see clearly from the photos, my whole left hand nails are longer than those on my right hand, polish is very sloppy, and to top it off, one of the fingers he "fixed" is lifting in the same spot. I will be going back to Diamond Nails for sure come this weekend! Side note....I called before I went and asked how much a gel fill was and was told $25- ended up paying $40 for God knows what oh yeah.... they only accept cash tip. read more

the wait time for people who are walk ins and people who have appointments is the same time, which does not make sense. not to mention how they will allow other people who did not have an appointment come in and be seated before you. normally i would not make this a race issue; but since my sister and i are POC (african American) and the woman that was taken before us was a white woman, who was getting the same thing we were getting with no prior appointment, it's safe to assume that this was motivated in another way. i will not be coming back here until they can fix their scheduling, how many people they will have working even on a normal day of the week, and for their blatant favoritism. oh, and btw. their nails are also very chunky as they use too much gel on the nail. so it's safe to say i won't be coming back for the nails either. there are plenty of other nail salons you can go to in this area that are better, cheaper, and more respectful than this one. read more

I'm new to the area came to get my eyebrows waxed. Usually, I would go to the an actual nail spa. However, I figure I'd give a smaller business a chance. This location is tucked on the side by Wawa. As soon as I entered the the establishment I noticed all the nail tech were busy. I asked the gentleman in the front how long was the wait time, he said a few mins. Well a few minutes turned to 30 mins. I'm only leaving a review because when I asked the man at the front desk, can I make appointment he said they don't do appointments and proceeded to put his ear piece back in his ear. Then, he asked was I in a rush I said no just wanted to see how much longer would the wait be. He told me whenever someone is free. Again, I'm leaving a review for bad service. He acted as if I was bothering him and was very much irritable. Not to mention when other customers came in and asked the same question he seemed bothered. Well, I take it business is great and they don't need any new customers. I'll take my business somewhere else. There are plenty of nail shops in this area. read more

This has always been my go to, to get my nails done. No other place can replace them. It's not too expensive, and it's just right. My old nail tech was Rose but she ended up moving... although she left, I continued to go to that place and ended up with Kenny one day, he's all I ask for! He does a great job with my nails and he knows what shape I like lol read more

Rude, unwelcoming, disrespectful. The nail tech aggressively threw her trash in the pedicure bowl while I was sitting there then pulled the pedicure toe separators off my feet in a hostile manner. I paid, left and questioned my safety (As a Black Woman) in such a hostile environment. read more

I loved getting my nails done here! First off let me just say how amazing they were with my children. My two little ones had a melt down and my nail tech , he was just amazing and patient and kind with me and them. He was very fast and efficient and my nails look great. It was clean and very nice innocent. Great much and atmosphere. Absolutely loved it here! read more

Davis Nails - Fill in after 3 weeks with gel polish. - Nail Salons Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

on 12/23/22: I visited Davis Nails for the usual gel mani/pedi. Walked in and noticed an immediate draft and saw the customers with hats and coats on, noticed the staffed was heavily dressed with scarfs and layered clothing. Why? NO HEAT in the establishment! I asked, where's the heat? I just got a smile in return. read more

Really wish I'd have started going to this place a long time ago. I've gone to the mall and Escape, but Davis stacks up to the best with leas $$. I like to wear sandals so I get pedicures. Plain and simple. I went to Davis and there was a line. That's a great sign. Waited in a comfortable waiting area with cable TV until I was called. Easily the best massage seats in Waldorf. Service was great and my feet felt great without a huge hit to my wallet. I'll def go back. read more

I got the basic pedicure and it was just that, basic. I should've just gotten a polish change because that would've been worth my money. Don't expect your feet to feel any different from when you come in if you purchase the basic pedicure. No dead skin was buffed or anything. I will give it a three because the guy who did my toes was nice. read more

Just walked out of nail salon... gel fill and this what they look like! It's like the machine didn't dry them good enough or something... very disappointed read more

I was a faithful client of Davis Nails for two years. Every two weeks with manis, pedis, and wax..but then they fell off. 1. I was a client of Lisa. Very nice woman. She works hard, but one day I go in to get my eyebrows done and she half did them. I asked her to fix it and she said I can wait 45 min and she can do it again but she was too busy, mind you I had an appointment. Needless to say they were fixed immediately. 2. I go for my gel mani. She shaoes my nails, but this day she shaped some box and some curved. All 10 naiks were different lengths. She got an attitude when I asked for them to be fixed. 3. I came another time for a pedi. She skipped 2 steps in the pedi. I asked her to do them and she told me she wasn't going to because she had another client coming in, once again I had an appointment. 4. The guy who sits next to her is mean. He talks negative about clients and pokes fun at people that are there (not to their face). 5. Davis is an ass and very rude! Don't give them your money read more

My experience at Davis always varies based on my technician. There are times when I have excellent service and leave refreshed and renewed, and times when I leave a little disgusted with painted nails (and that's pretty much it). I track the technician I had through the tips I post here, at Yelp. That way, I know my favorites (and least favorites). The services I get - Mani/Pedi. Some technicians try to upsell, asking if you want this/that (waxing, callous treatment, a more expensive pedi, manicure, etc.). That irritates me. My favorite technicians are: Linda, Lisa, Connie, Vi (not sure if she's still there), and sometimes Jackie (when she's in a good mood). read more

Okay I normally don't write a bad review, I normally visit this shop when I'm in the area or try to go often. Haven't been in awhile. Didn't know there was a price change. No problem with that, however I went on a Saturday I noticed Monday my polish chip and today I noticed another finger chip. I don't work a crazy job.. oh no tips mani/pedi for $90 bucks..this is supposed to be gel.. read more

Davis Nails - My disappointment - Nail Salons Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

See all

I was pleased with how quickly service was rendered to me and the quality of work. However, this was the most expensive gel fill that I've ever received. I currently live in WA state where the cost of living is comparable but the tax rate is definitely higher. I pay $25 for a gel fill and was totally shocked that at Davis Nails it was $40 for the same service. I didn't request anything special, no design or anything. If you're okay with over paying for something so basic then this is the go-to place. But it's way over priced for me! Unfortunately, it was my first and last visit. read more

I don't have time for a full review but here's the lowdown: I got a lavender pedicure. It's a very nice place, great massage chairs. Ask for Kenny- he is AMAZING! I am very, very particular about my nails and usually do them myself but he was recommended to me by someone whose nails are always perfect, and he was great. He does such a wonderful job and the massage was awesome! I will be returning! They do- manicures, pedicures, ("spa" versions available) waxing, gel lacquer polish, and all the tips and fake nails too. read more

I had Anny, for a Mani-Pedi, and this was about the best I've had. I was quoted $40 for basic Mani-Pedi, which is less than the other top rated places charged by at least $10. The interior decor is much above the average salon. Anny gave me a price list for all their services, which is nice, because in some salons, you never know what the price is going to be until it's too late. Anny offered to do my Mani while I sat in the Pedi chair, which I've never been offered before in Waldorf. I stayed in the chair, and read the newspaper, and when she finished she told me there was no rush and I could stay in the chair, which was very comfortable. I finished the article I was reading, and left. I made a point of asking her name, because I will be back. Try Davis II and I doubt they'll disappoint. read more

I'm giving Davis Nails 4 stars because my first experience rated at about a 3, but after my second time deserving a 5, I think it deserves a 4. I think this place definitely depends on your technician. I had a very nice older woman who took her time and did a very nice job on my French manicure and toes. The last time I came I had a gentleman and my gel manicure was not done very well to the point where I could see some of my natural nail where polish should have been. After this second experience I will definitely be back. $40 for a mani/pedi seems pretty decent for the Waldorf area and the music and environment was nice, too! read more

Davis Nails - French manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

I had HORRIBLE and DISAPPOINTING experience at this place today, July 3rd 2021. Definitely surprised me, especially since I am a repeat customer. Anyway 15 minutes after the nail tech had started doing my nails, I was told to get up from the chair because I didn't have an appointment. Mind you, I had been there the day before, and had the conversation about coming back on Saturday morning at 10am, which is when the location opens. I was never told that I needed to make an appointment the day before, or I would have done just that. The fact that the owner or manager of this establishment spoke to me the way he did is totally unacceptable. They will never get another penny from me or my daughter. Poor Customer Service does not sit well with me. The situation could have been handled differently. read more

The customer service was the worst. Went in to get a manicure. No one was waiting but each person had one client they were attending to. I was told, in an abrubt manner "no we can't do you we too busy. I said do you mean not right now or later today. He says tomorrow. I say, I can come on Thursday, while waiting to be added to the calendar, a woman walked in and said I need my nails fixed... one of the technicians say ok you wait and we'll get to you, won't be long. Yet I was told it would be too long for me to wait. I had only been there one other time and the technician spoke great English especially when I gave him a tip... was very pleasant at that time, but today he decided he could speak English well or understand. I remained pleasant and kindly said, thats ok, and left. I will not be returning... and giving my hard earned money to support your family. Its about being likeable, friendly and treating people well. read more

So this is only my second time at this salon but I feel confident enough to give them 5 stars. The service is above average, quick and the prices are standard. They don't force things on you, which I absolutely love. They give you what you ask for as efficiently as possible. Both times I've come to the salon I've gotten a pedi mani combo. My suggestion is to ask for Trish and get the deluxe. The environment is relaxing and the music is AMAZING, 90s R&B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and my first visit I got my brows waxed by Trish and they turned out perfect. read more

I like the salon and the location. It's very modern and kept but at times I feel rushed when receiving services. Although their prices are not competitive my nails always look descent. I have since visited another nail salon and don't feel the need to go here anymore but if I find myself in a situation where I can't go elsewhere, I'll keep them in mind. read more

I have been to this shop a couple of times and find the atmosphere to be tense and unwelcoming if you are a woman who is African American. Davis can be extremely rude and certainly caters to those who he perceives to be worthy. If it was not for the tech who is really good at her job I would not have gone the 3 times I did. I will continue the search for a nail shop in Waldorf. read more

Stepped in at 6:10 pm on Wednesday, April 4, 2012. I asked for a mani & pedi. I was told to pick a color. Minutes later I was sat in the massage chair w/ warm H20 to receive a pedi. I walked out at 6:55pm b/c no one provided me service. No one even stopped me as I exited. I went based on a referral of an associate who had her nails done there just the day before. I do hope they read this. I will not be back based on the LACK of customer service. I will definitely spread the word to other associates not to patronize this business. read more
