This place is a diamond in the rough. When I moved from Uptown to Oak Cliff, I pegged Fantasy Nails as 1 of the 2 or 3 salons I wanted to check out. Some of the Yelp photos & comments were old (the photos with the purple walls). I wasn't completely sure if it would be the right fit, so I didn't check it out right away. Meanwhile, my girlfriend Julie kept posting photos & stories about her nail tech Mary. She mentioned it was worth the drive from Irving to Camp Wisdom Rd. I made the connection, confirmed it was the same place and off I went in search of Mary at Fantasy Nails. If you want a boushie, quiet, spa-like atmosphere....keep moving. If you want on-point, unique, P I M P nails that last...this is your spot. And they still do acrylics! Yaaasssss As a matter of fact, I haven't seen a dip being done at all. Check out Mary's nail art at https://instagram.com/nails_by_maryberry?utm_source=ig_profile_share&igshid=1l571i6wef175 Everyone there is great at nails. They only take walk-Ins. Mary is usually full by 2:00 pm. Don't be afraid to see anyone else there. Pedicures are standard. Nothing OMG remarkable there, but they do the trick. Facial waxing available as well. Prices are reasonable. If you go full-on-pornograph bling, be prepared to dish out the dollas! read more

1st time going because it was recommended to me by my sister and didn't regret going. The price and service were great! Definitely going again for a refill! Image is the manicure I got done and the red one that my sister got done the same the day. I've heard they recommend to do appointments but they also do walk ins. It was great since we didn't call for an appointment. read more

I just love my nail Tech. Mary's nails never disappoint me. She executes every time!! There is no design she can not pull off.

There are no words to express the awesomeness of this place.Friendly, relaxing, and exceptional service. Mary goes far and beyond any salon I have ever entered. And her art work in amazing! I have never seen anyone pay so much attention to detail in their designs and the hard work of her entire staff truly shows. I have recommended this salon to my friends and family and they all love it as well. Thank you so much! read more

I love this place . I've only ever gotten my nails done with Cindy before but her attention to detail and her shaping is perfect I get my pedicures by a man who I believe is Cindy's husband and he is always asking if everything is to my liking :) I get my eyebrows by Mary and she does then just the way I like them. I am so glad they have the option to set up an appointment too read more

My first time coming here I looked at all the good reviews and decided to try it. And I'm glad I did. I'm a very satisfied customer and very satisfied with the results of my nails and pedicure. I will be coming again soon! read more

I can't begin to explain how much I love this place. Born and raised in Dallas in Oak Cliff where waxing, manicures and pedicures are ALWAYS affordable, I'm so glad to have tried this place out! The wait was BONKERS! But what you get in return is a fun and chatty salon experience, a lovely manicure at an affordable rate, gentle hands, and a pretty inexpensive pedicure I'd definitely come back for! Mary is dope and a wonderful nail artist and so is the rest of her staff. Justin worked on my nails and I couldn't stop doing jazz hands everywhere and posting all over social media. Lol! Please go! You won't be disappointed--outside of the wait. HIGHLY RECOMMEND SETTING AN APPOINTMENT!!! read more

Came in to Dallas for a friend's wedding and knew about Mary through Instagram. Appointment process was super easy. I already knew her stuff was amazing through her pics. but I didn't know just how amazing and fun Mary herself is. She's a mega sweetheart with a crazy amount of talent. Amazing, amazing job. Wish she was based in LA! read more

Every time I come back to visit family, this place is a MUST stop for me. It's so hard for me to find a place or nail tech as friendly, considerate, amazing and as talented as Mary. She kills it every single time I see her and I wish I could bring her home with me. She's so precise and always knows exactly what I'm looking for and makes it even better. Definitely one of the most exceptional and memorable nail salons I have ever been to. read more

Fantasy Nails is the Bomb!!! I'm a certified nail tech of over18 years from the East Coast. Since I relocated 10 years ago from VA I've been for the creative freelance artwork. I haven't seen this type of talent in YEARS from Coast to Coast!! Mary, Justin, Holly & the crew are the best!! They have more rude customers than being rude themselves. I don't know how the hold their composure. Heck, what else do you expect in the hood. There Hood, but there GOOD!!! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would the owner was very disrespectful and rude!! My nails didn't last 4 days 40 dollars down the drain that could have filled my gas tank. i wasn't rude or loud until she refused to fix my nails. She wanted to charge me more money for something that obviously was her fault! There was no policy stating anything it was all word of mouth....I can't stand it when people try to get over on you. Im asking God to fix this and i know he will so i will be reporting to the BBB..... The designs are ok but if i have to worry about my whole nail coming off what would be the point of coming here. The manger has a lot of growing up to do... read more

So I recently tried this nail place and it was so cool. Everyone is so nice and professional. Mary was really nice and her designs are super pretty and cool. I would definitely come here again. read more

This was the worst experience I've ever had at a nail salon, not professional at all. Even the owner doesn't respect the customers. Very tacky & rude. Please be cautious of your time because they keep you awaiting as well. read more

I personally don't like this place. The first time I went the technicians were very rude, the second time I went I was robbed of my cell phone RIGHT infront of the place. A guy just snatched it out of my hand and took off like he was in 400 track meet. They do very good (ghetto FABULOUS) designs though, best in the city. I just don't have great luck here. read more

People here are friendly, and the salon is bright and clean. There are many offers everyday.

I found about this location from instagram. Mary was displaying her work & I fell in Love with all of her designs. She has some serious talent and is very friendly. We had some great conversation on Thai food & food in general.... I will be back for nail styles & designs that will stand out. It is in the Hood but worth the drive. read more

Visited Dallas this past weekend and it is my hometown. I honestly forgot how affordable it is to get quality service. It was a fun experience all in all. The customers who were there, were great and seemed to really know the staff. They convinced me and my friend to stay the wait. I got solar nails in an almond shape and I absolutely love it!!! Yes, you are going to wait but the quality is amazing! I decided to get my eyebrows done and was quite hesitant because no one even where I reside (Austin) has been able to give me results that make me say YAASSS! Justin proceeded to tell me to sit down and I looked at him sideways, like what are you doing. I've never had a guy give me an eyebrow wax. Another customer assured me that he was great at what he does so I became at ease! During the process, I could feel the shape of how he put the wax on my eyebrow and it gave me joy because it felt like it was going to look good! Let me just say, YAASSS! He did an excellent job! Whenever I am back in Dallas, I will be sure to come again! Thanks to Mary, Justin and the rest of the staff! read more

Honestly the worst nail shop I have ever visited. I don't mind dropping $$$ on my nails but they had such terrible service. The way the man was handling me nails was EXTREMELY rough. I was bleeding and everything. My nails weren't even all the same length. My pinky nail was short af compared to the rest of my nails. He was being very disrespectful with the way he spoke to us. I was genuinely trying to give him the benefit of the doubt in the beginning but he was being straight up rude. He some of my diamonds crooked and my nails also had air bubbles. There is so much more that went into making my experience here horrible but those are just a few. Oh my nails were also $90 which I don't mind spending if my nails were actually good... read more

To say that the work Mary does is beautiful would be an understatement. HER WORK IS AMAZING! Mary has always welcomed me with open arms, sticks strictly to the schedule she sets and I can ALWAYS count on her when I'm in need of some nail therapy! I've been to a few nail techs in the past but my Nail Specialist Mary can never be duplicated as she is ONE OF A KIND! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mary for a your nail care needs, nail treatment tips and ALL EXOTIC DESIGNS read more

This is one of the best nail salons in the Dallas area, and I have frequented many. Everyone here is friendly and professional. They don't seem to belittle or look down upon their clients as in other shops. The salon's focus on design/nail art is above par. They have a collage that showcases all of the previous design work that they have done. I cannot say anything bad about this establishment. Keep up the good work, Mary, et al. read more

I am seriously jaded with the nail salon 'industry'! I came to Fantasy Nails today after receiving a good review of the services provided. Unfortunately, I will not return. My pedicure was rushed and a bit painful, the nail tech providing the service never spoke to me while completing the procedure and upon completion, my cuticles had as much polish on.them as my nail beds. During the entire process, I had to listen to a language foreign to me not knowing if I am the topic or conversation or the weather and that bothers me. There are dozens of pictures of designs on the wall, that are quite beautiful, but I'll never get the chance to experience their beauty, because once I sat down after telling the tech which design I liked, he went on to tell me how much it was in a tone as if to discourage me from choosing that particular design. He went so far as to let me know the desired design would not remain on my toes for long. It's really sad that customer service is so lacking in some neighborhoods and that some businesses feel like the sub-par attention and care shown to customers in some areas is ok. I sure hate todays experience went the way it did, I was looking forward to FINALLY finding a nail shop that didn't prejudge me to be some hoodrat with an attitude and as a result treat me as such. I just wish more women would take a page from my book and not support businesses like these. read more

Friendly?!? Yeah rite!!! Holly is really sweet but Mary is rude and think she is another race.. I like their work but after dealing with Mary I wont never be back again! read more

This shop is DIRTY. Nail dust clippings all over and don't expect them to clean it up. They use the same file on me as the person before me. Every inch of the place is covered in nail dust. Prices go up magically and nail techs are lazy will charge you ridiculous amounts if they don't feel like doing something, so you'll say no. And you would think their work would at least look good. I have dip powder all around my skin and thick underneath my nail. Shitty job to say the least. Mary should be ashamed. GET IT TOGETHER!!!! read more

luv luv luv this salon!! i have used 3 different techs all were nice. the designs are on point!! you can bring in a picture and they can do it!!! mary is the shit!! they also have a fb page with their work on it!!! luv luv luv!! there is a wait on fridays, but it is worth it!! trust - you will not go wrong with fantasy nails!!! read more

Let me just cut to the chase...they should just name this place NIGHTMARE Nails. The wait was horrific, 2 unnecessary hours and very poor communication and POOR customer service. Long wait not because they are popular but because they are short staffed and very unprofessional and took their time gossiping out loud about other customers and about their personal inappropriate business In front of not only customers but also in front of under age children!!! The business is ran poorly and RUN DOWN!!!! place is unsanitary - very dirty and the only reason I waited that long is because I was in shock - like is this really happening?! None of them are worth 2 hour wait. The hype behind Mary Berry or whatever her name is... should be Mary Berry Unprofessional loud mouth and over priced and dirty. They seriously are not the only talent in Dallas. I will NEVER ever spend another minute or dime in that junky unprofessional unsanitary establishment. They never once checked on their customers or apologized about the wait, at that, even inform of the approximate wait. I called prior to arriving and they told me what time to come, so there wouldn't be a wait... I did as they instructed over the phone but once I arrived, I sat there and waited and waited and WAITED while listening to the "owner" Mary Berry bash other customers that weren't there and poke fun of the people that were arriving at 3:30 or after because they close at 3:30 yet their door was still unlocked & open and their open sign was on..! Horrible horrible place ran by horrible people! I rather spend my time waiting on good humble service !!! Never again! Yuck! Disgusted! read more

I came here quite a few times with my bestie, then I started getting my nails and toes done there since they do a really good job. They do the best jobs on pedicures!!! Justin does an awesome job on nails eventhough he works kind of slow...but it's worth the wait! read more

nails came off next day crappy job only the designs r ok but everything else is cheap work and wont last!!!
