Dash Nails Spa

Best nail salon in town ! Go there every two weeks for a great long lasting gel manicure and sometimes gel pedicure. Worth the money great staff and very personable.

One of the best nails solan in town ! Their color gels last for 2 weeks or more very clean and friendly staff especially (Maggie).

This salon is awful. The tools are not sterilized, the nail brushes are frayed, old and dirty and the gel products are thick and gloppy. Lisa did my nails and this is the worst french gel job I’ve ever had. She didn’t cover my nails completely, they are completely uneven… thick in some places and thin in others. There are bubbles in the top gel coat. The area near my cuticles are crusty and powdery. They are already chipping, which has never happened to me in the 10 years I’ve been getting gels. I wouldn’t even go back to have them redone there. I feel lucky I didn’t get an infection. The manicurist at the salon I went to to have them redone said it was one of the most unprofessional jobs she’d ever seen.

love love love. best price around for gel nails, and Jenny is always accommodating!

Yes, I am a fan. Have been coming to see Jenny and her team since they first opened. I get a gel nails and it lasts 3 weeks. Always able to get an appointment. They get you in and out quickly. Friendly.

I was tipped off by someone to try Dash and I am glad I did. Very friendly staff, super clean, never really busy and have had to wait and most importantly, they do a really good job. Can’t beat that.

The lady that owned Reflections Salon in downtown Stamford opened this place up and she is so nice and good at what she does. I would definitely recommend this place. They know you by name and are very nice and polite. The salon is clean and they do a great job with manicures, pedicures, and gel manicures, i’ve tried them all! And my friend gets her eyebrows done here as well and is happy with them.

Dash nails is my favorite nail salon! Jenny and her team of ladies do an amazing job. My uv gel manicure lasts a full two weeks which I have never been able to achieve at other nail salons. Very clean and friendly !

I am shocked by all of the negative reviews here — I love Dash. They have great prices, knew me by name after just two visits and are always very welcoming. Not to mention, my eyebrows have never looked so good… like, ever. Since I started getting my eyebrows done at Dash I frequently get compliments from friends, strangers, even my CEO commented on them. (a little strange — but when you find a good eyebrow shaper you stay loyal to them!) Anyways, this is not a flashy salon, but you will get a good mani pedi at a great price with friendly service.

For $ 35 I got a spa pedicure that included a ten minute leg massage and callus remover. The girls talked to each other in a language other than English the entire time but that is to be expected at many places I suppose. It was a decent pedicure, clean, and no complaints so I would go back but I wouldn’t go out of my way to make this place a destination for a particularly outstanding pedicure.

Dash Nails is the newest nail salon on an already over-​saturated Hope St. of nail salons. That being the competitive landscape, one would think they should be sure to stay competitive with the many other choices people have. But it appears that is not the case.
Last Sat., I thought I would give it a try to have the gel color service I get. As I was walking up to the door, I noticed a big sign in the window that said that gel color nails «$ 25.00 (Mon. — Thurs.)». My first thought was that was a little brazen given most salons in the vicinity charge $ 25.00, BUT they don’t set limitations on getting that price. I walked in, asked about the sign, and they confirmed it was the case. She proceeded to immediately push me to come in. I told her I was going back to the salon I always go to. (Ace Nails in the Bob’s Furniture store retail center. It’s got a little older décor, but they are really friendly and do a very good job. Their clientele is faithful, and they get a lot of walk-​in traffic, but I’ve never had to wait. Interestingly enough, one of her former nail technicians left Ace and started Dash).
Here’s my quandary… I get Fridays, Saturdays and Sunday tend to be busy for nail salons. But, there is no change in the quality of their work that justifies customers pay more on weekends. Will your nails be done in a more quality way than they do during the week… Not likely. That business model isn’t going to hold up against cost conscious, but quality minded patrons, who have many places from which they can choose.
I won’t be giving them my business.

I have been here two times:
The first time, I got a pedicure– which was perfectly fine and only $ 25. Average pedi, nothing special, but neatly done and no complaints.
The second time, I got my first ever gel manicure… and I was stunned when I left. The girl who did my nails (Lisa) clipped so much off of my cuticles that I was left with gashes, chunks of skin missing, and was bleeding on several fingers. What was worse was that she didn’t even notice until I pointed out the blood on one finger. When I did, she grabbed the blue solution, splashed it on a cotton pad, and smashed it onto my finger – which stopped the bleeding, but made the pain worse. Maybe I should have gotten up and left at this point, but I am not the best at speaking up, and just wanted to get the job done and get out. The polish job itself was fine and lasted, but it took over a week for my fingers to heal, the skin to grow back, and the soreness to go away.
I have heard good things from other people about the owner (Jenny) and some other technicians there (Joy), but I would recommend that anyone avoid Lisa at all costs. She was not gentle, and seemed to care less. Usually I don’t make it a point to name drop, but I want to spare someone else the pain in the future. If I ever go back, I will be sure to make an appointment with someone else.

Oh darn. Filled with optimistism upon seeing the Grand Opening sign. Courteous enough greeter/​owner. Unsterilzed clippers. Nail files that look like they’ve been used on 50 people. Frowning manicurist who left a piece of dirt on the edge of a nail and could not file it smooth and straight after the requested dirt removal without involvement by the owner. Even after 30% tip. Then, aha, suddenly seemed to know how to check for straightness and smoothness. But streaky job. Hate to say it, but my nails almost looked better before I entered. They were not streaky.
A friendly woman at the nail dryer bar said this was her third visit. For the same manicure!!!
Been trying lots of nail salons in the area. Some passable, all disappointing so far. Please help, Unilocalers!
Sad to say, but when you see Dash, better make a mad one for any other nail salon nearby.
