This used to be my go to spot for a mani -pedi. Over the past couple of years it has deteriorated in appearance as well as service. Most of the technicians rush through appointments and use old bottles of nail polish. The last time I went, my manicure was so bad I had to remove it when I got home. As for filing and shaping, no care is given. Awful. I will not be returning. read more

Had a nail emergency because I broke two nails at work, and needed my hands to look nice for an early morning meeting. I found DN Nail & Spa on the internet and was able to easily book a same day appointment online. When I arrived, I told the person at the desk I was there for an appointment. I was welcomed and then a staff member walked me to the sink so I could wash my hands. Hand washing before sitting at a station is part of their COVID protocol. This nail salon is following COVID safety guidelines. Tom was the tech who did my nails. I got the pink and white French manicure. Tom is an amazing nail tech! He worked very hard to make sure my nails looked good. Very happy that I chose to get the pink and white French manicure. All the other staff members were working hard too as there were other customers there getting different types of manicure services. read more

The absolute worst customer service ever. Gel nails were poorly done..lumpy, ridges. Just terrible. Add the nasty attitude of Gene, the owner, and you have a disaster for your money. Don't do it. Spend your money elsewhere!!! read more

I got a nail design and let's just say TERRIBLE. I asked for something and the lady said that it was too HARD!? and told me to pick something else. When I gave her something more simple she messed it up and it looks nothing like what I wanted read more

I haven't had my nails done in YEARS. But my sister has consistently came here for months. So with my wedding a few months away I figured I'd give it a whirl. Everyone there is so friendly and efficient! I got dip powder done and I am so impressed!! I'd recommend this place to anyone! read more

DN Nail & Spa - Waxing Near Me - Akron, Ohio

I'm giving this 2 stars because I liked the space. I wouldn't, however, recommend this salon for the lack of quality in the manicure. I got a gel manicure and pedicure 3 days ago and while the toes look great still, the paint on my nails have all cracked and chipped off. Huge waste of money as they are already pricier than many other salons in the vicinity. read more

Worst experience I've ever had.. lines on my nails. These people charge $45 for their $5 work.

I came in with two other people for pedicures and last minute was asked if they could also do manicures and they happily obliged. They were thorough and quick. They got us in maybe five minutes after our reservation that I was able to make online. Two he mani/pedis and one regular mani pedi was 250. I would use this nail salon again! read more

Visited for the first time today for a pedicure and a brow wax. Had a great experience! The salon is one of the more aesthetically pleasing walk-in places I've been to and I was thankful that they didn't blare the TV like at other salons. The salon also didn't have the strong chemical scent that I've noticed at other places. Both of the women who treated me were great, sadly I forgot to ask their names before I left. Will return. read more

New to the area but not new to pedicures and then expect to be tipped that's not how it works. Worst pedicure ever! She was just going through the motions acting like she was trimming my cuticles wow read more

Excellent service! Very nice and professional! Jean worked on me and was patient and explained what art they are able to do and what they can't. My second trip there and both times the people were detailed and professional. read more

They 'ust not want/need any extra clientele. I walked in to see about availability on a Saturday. I stood at the entry by the desk for a few minutes without so much as a "hello" or "be with you in a moment." Nail techs made eye contact but no one said anything. I'll take my money elsewhere. read more

I took my Daughter in law here for her birthday. Nice clean and very friendly place. Did a great job on my nails! read more

Was home from Nashville for the weekend. Didn't have time to have my nails done while at home so figured I'd try a local salon. I was greeted very professionally and waited only about 35-40 min in a Saturday as a walk-in. I got Vicki and so glad I did! She was fantastic! So professional, caring, genuine and pleasant. Another bonus is that there was Lo language barrier with her so it was great to carry on a conversation the whole time. She truly takes pride in her work and cares about people. I wish she was my tech in Nashville. If you go here ask for Vicki! read more

I will not return here again. I got a gel pedicure and within a week half of them peeled off. My heels were also still rough after leaving the salon. The pedicure was incredibly overpriced for what I received. Do not waste your money. read more

Excellent service! Was here on a Tuesday evening, so it was fairly quiet. There was hardly any chatter among the employees. Had a pedicure that lasted a full hour. Love that orange sea scrub on my legs! Will be back. read more

Stopped in after getting my hair done a couple doors down to see if they could fit in a polish change. The lady at the front desk said she could and took me right away. The place was very clean and had two cute panda pedicure chairs for kids. (so cute!) The lady who did my nails (I never did get her name) did an excellent job. My nails were filed perfectly and fixed a cuticle issue even though it was just a polish change. Prices were very good ($12 including tax for a polish change). I will definitely be back next time I'm getting my hair done down the street! read more

Worst gel manicure I have ever had. It started peeling within days. I went back to have it removed and a month later my nails are still grooved and damaged. read more

You know, I'm not a, "Let's go get manicures and gossip," kinda gal...but this place makes me want to be. A friend and I were being spontaneous this afternoon and came to DN Nail & Spa just to get out of the dreary weather that was just bringing us down. We both had gel manicures done. Not gel nails, but gel 'polish' manicures. They are, in theory, supposed to last a minimum of 2 weeks. Now, I had gotten a Shellac manicure from the Spa on Merriman, but it lasted a couple of days before it started peeling. Yikes! And they refused to fix it. I mentioned this to DN Nails and the gentleman there said that if anything happened to my nails within the 2 week period that the polish was supposed to last, they'd fix it for free. WHAT?! You mean you're going to give me GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE?! Excuse me while I place my head between my knees to keep me from passing out from shock. Anyways, the two gals who took care of us were awesome. Super sweet and they did an amazing job. My nails are a nice nude color with a glitter finish (YAY! GLITTER!) and my friends were this gorgeous candy apple red. This is one place I'm definitely going back to. Plus, they're in a very convenient location in Fairlawn. Now I just need to know if I can grab a drink at On Tap and take it back there! read more

Best nail place ever they are very considerate and kind great nail options would love to come here again

Mia did a ok job on my nails she was neat and professional but for the price I paid I would have wished my nails made it to 2 weeks but I had like 4 pop right off not pulling off or biting they just popped off clean so now I'm debating if I should go back probably not. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! Tom and his wife Maria (who run this location) are great! They are some of the nicest, most professional people I've met in the industry. I've gotten my nails done at dozens of other nail salons and they just don't compare. They have a great selection of products which include an array of nails polish, gel polish, waxing and even eyebrow coloring! The salon itself is always clean and you are always greeted at the door with something to drink! Throughout the years I have had my nails done by several of the employees and they have all done a great job, but Tom is my favorite. He is a perfectionist like me, so I leave there without any complaints!! I'd also like to add that we made appointments for nails & toes for my sisters wedding last summer and they really took care of us and made us all feel so special! What a good thing they have going here! read more

I have been here three times. I had an appointment & didn't wait no longer than five minutes or so. The service was quick & professional. Each time I have had a mani& pedi. The French tip lasted for a month. That is very rare. Usually the white polish chips off in days. That certainly is not the case all thre times I've had a French tip pedi. Nice bonus to this nail salon is , they have children's pedicure size chairs! My daughter loved her birthday mani & medi! I had to take her back just because! read more

Today I went to get my nails done here. At first they seemed friendly but eventually they began to speak harshly or not at all. When we asked questions they responded in a hostile tone and unkindly. They would talk about us right in front of us which was very rude. In the end my nails were not in the condition that I expected. I want the best quality for what I paid. Plain and simple. Finally, I would not recommend this salon to anyone. read more

EXTREMELY friendly staff. Took my cousins to get pedicures. Wonderful job as well!! They also have two little kid panda chairs as well!! Recommend 100. They're friendly, talkative, and funny !!! read more

The salon is beautiful and the chairs were very comfortable! They made me feel at home offer me water and a pop . would've loved a glass of wine lol . My pedicure was awesome , I just wish I wasn't so ticklish and had more time to have my feet in the water ! I would've loved a hot lotion pedicure but they didn't have them . Advertised price was $35 and it ended up being $64. read more

I find this place to be hit or miss with who you get. I've personally had worse experiences with the male nail techs. Review is a bit all over the place as I've had 2 bad experiences with a decent amount of time between. The reason I give 2 stars is my last 2 gel manicures I've had have peeled up on the edges very quickly--one of the reasons I prefer gel is because I am a "picker"--these edges are gold for me and I can't stop picking at them once I find them. When they flood the cuticles with polish there is an edge that my hair/clothing starts to catch on and then once I know there's a spot coming up...game over. I got my nails done on Friday and I just picked them all off on Monday--so three whole days of wear. The last time this happened, about 2 years ago, I was scolded for picking them off when I called in to ask if they could be fixed. They made it seem like the polish wasn't the problem, I had tried to peel them up. They repainted the 2 I had picked off after buffing the heck out of my nails, and failed to fix about 3 other nails that were starting to peel up even though I pointed that out. That turned me off of the salon for a while, said I would never go back but thought I would give them one more try since the location was good for me meeting up with my sister this time. Note: I've had gel manicures that have lasted 2.5/3 weeks to the point where the grow out is nauseating. This last time, the nail tech seemed ticked that I asked to sit next to my sister (she started a bit before me) so he had to move over one seat to accommodate--mind you, we asked to be seated together and waited a few extra minutes for spots next to each other to open up. I got glitter polish and he put very thick layers of polish--it was extremely painful to cure. If the glitter was the issue, he should have advised I do a solid color with glitter over it imo. Also, multiple fingers had polish too close to the cuticle so created some nice sharp edges to start to catch on things. Finished with one of the worst hand massages I've ever gotten, I got the feeling he was salty about having to move and irritated with the glitter coverage so didn't care to do a good job. I agree with what some of the other reviews say about short wait times and I have had good manicures there. I would say maybe give it a try, get a female tech, and get her name to schedule with in the future. Another note, I've had mani/pedi's there where they do both at the same time (1 person on the hands, the other on the feet). I find it to be a little too chaotic and not as relaxing personally. read more

I love this place. The staff is amazing, the salon is spotless, and the service is top notch. I highly recommend anyone who needs a manicure or pedicure to give this place a try. I've had pink and white, shellac, and a regular manicure. All perfect. I've also had pedicures and each lasted a really long time. Fabulous place! read more

The man that did my nails moved extremely slow. I got there at 2:00 on a Sunday. Didn't leave here until 615, just for a pedicure and gel manicure. the man had to keep redoing my nails because he kept messing them up. He moved slow and was using profanity. Not to mention the prices are outrageous. Payed 102 dollars for gel manicure and pedicure. Payed 70-80 anywhere else. Never again. read more

DN Nail & Spa - Scratch on my foot after pedicure - Waxing Near Me - Akron, Ohio

Do NOT go to this place. Making an appointment is unbelievably pointless because they are so unorganized and do not take you on time. They don't remember that they take appointments and will take walk ins ahead of you. Very overpriced which is not smart due to the fact that there are at least half a dozen other places within a 0.1-5 mile radius. Take your business elsewhere. This place is a complete waste of an entire day considering you are waiting there for the whole day! read more

I love this place, they always get me in and out quickly. They are clean, friendly, and great at their jobs...I have been to quite a few nail places in my time and this one is on my top 5 list. I'll definitely be a regular customer for a while. read more

Very friendly and clean. Got a regular manicure and it's been holding very well! It was pretty busy and the chemical smell was a little overwhelming. read more

If I could leave negative stars I would. Worst "salon" experience of my life. My wait time was fine, but the lady who did my nails rushed and did not pay attention to what she was doing - she did the worst job! I wanted a pink & white full set, and she didn't seem to know what that meant... She proceeded to glue on the tips but after cutting them, she did not check to make sure my nails were now all the same length, she did not file them to be even, and she did not ensure the tips were not glued to my skin (which they were). She continued on to the acrylic, which got all over my skin and under the nails. It was lumpy, uneven, and looked like crap even after she "filed" and buffed. My nails were still uneven lengths. And at no point was I asked what shape I wanted until the acrylic was already hardened and my nails were filed, into square... When it came to the "pink & white" part, I got "translucent pink" gel polish and shoddily painted white tips. By the way, you could still see the clear tip she had glued on. The white line was crooked and the gel manicure itself was sub-par. After they started growing out, I went to remove them (the proper way by soaking them off) and realized every single tip had been glued to the side of my nails. Beyond overpriced for the terrible service; I will NEVER return nor would I ever recommend this place. What a waste of my time and money. read more

DN Nail & Spa is the best! I have been getting acrylic nails for over 30 years and I was looking for a new place near my house. I was a first time walk in customer and was immediately impressed with how beautiful and clean the salon was. As a former tan salon owner I am extremely particular about cleanliness and customer service. I was first greeted by the sweetest friendliest smile from Naomi who asked how she could help me. That was over a year ago and I have been going there ever since for my nails and pedicures. The salon is always clean and the customer service is fantastic! They also do a great job at waxing! If you look around and listen when you're there you can tell that most of the people are regulars and have become friends with the staff. It is truly a pleasure to go there and be treated well and that is a testament to the management and staff! I love going to a place where they take walk-ins but I do suggest making an appt during busy hours . It is a busy salon because it is so fantastic! Everyone there is great but we all have our favorites. Thank you Naomi, Pam, Eva, Andy and Tom for always taking great care of me!! I love DN NAIL AND SPA! read more

I read reviews and was hoping for a better experience. But, I had an appointment at 1130 on a Sunday for a manicure and pedicure. I arrived in time and still had to wait 20 minutes. Never any apology for the long wait. Despite specifying when I set up the appointment that I wanted a regular pedicure and a French manicure I was still asked multiple times if I was getting shellac. I don't mind being asked once, but it was at least 3 times. They do not have many of the newer spring/summer color unique polishes either. But lots of red and pink. The pedicure was painful and seemed to focus more on my legs than my feet. The pedicure was also uncomfortable as the tech grabbed my feet hard and held them at awkward angles. The manicure was even worse. I am used to manicures that everything is contained at the table. I hate when you have to wash your hands after the massage. It isn't professional. It only takes a little effort to have an additional soaking tray so your customer doesn't lose all the lotion off of their hands. But of course, I had to wash my hands. He then chopped away at my cuticles. I get pedicures and manicures at least every two weeks sometimes manicures weekly so I know my cuticles are not in bad shape.now they are hacked up. And as he started to apply base coat only to my tips, I asked-- aren't you going to put a light color coat on top? He looked at me like I was crazy and said "no, just white tips". Never in my life have I ever had a manicurist not know how to do a French manicure. I just let him finish the white tips (which despite my telling him three times were too thick) and I left. I will try to salvage them when I get home. Now my nails are half done, my hands and feet are sore, and my hands are stripped and dry. And I'm out $58. I'm sure the other manicurists are fine, one tried to tell him what to do and I just stopped her. I have never walked out halfway through a manicure and not left a tip, but this time I just wanted out of there as fast as I could go. read more

Absolutely love this place. Always make an appointment before hand and as soon as you walk in the have a chair tray for you... Naomi does the best mani pedis! read more

BEST NAILS & SPA AROUND!!! I've gone to several other nail salons in the Fairlawn/Akron area, and was never 100% satisfied with the service I received. But at DN, the employees are pleasant, polite, professional and fun! They offer you coffee or water while you're there, and treat you very well. Plus, my manicures always last at least 2 weeks!!! Love this place, please stop in if you are in the Akron area - it's in the same plaza as ACME Foods and JoAnn Fabrics. Way to go DN ... keep it up ... love you guys! read more
