Quick info
About Nancy's Nails Salon
Nancy's Nails Salon is a nail salon on Bonifant St in Silver Spring, run by owner Nancy and her sister as the two nail techs. The service list covers manicures, pedicures, and waxing, with a gel manicure among the options. The space is small, and walk-ins are accommodated without an appointment. It opens Monday to Saturday and stays closed on Sundays. Parking near the salon can be difficult because of the nearby Purple Line construction, so allow time to find a spot before heading in. The compact room keeps the operation to the two family members handling appointments at the counter as they come in.

Customer Review Summary
Gel manicures draw the most mention, with reviewers repeatedly praising the affordable pricing and walk-in availability, several noting they were accommodated without an appointment even late in the evening. Many describe the salon as small and family run, with the owner and her sister remembered by name choices and treated like regulars, some returning for years for mani, pedi, and waxing together. A pedicure upgrade is also flagged as a good value by one reviewer. The recurring caveat is gel longevity: one reviewer found lifting on six of ten fingers within a day, another reported the same lifting issue paired with feeling rushed during after-5pm visits, and a third noted the shop doesn't use UV lamps. Despite this, most describe leaving satisfied and returning repeatedly, with one calling it their only nail salon for ten years running.

“I have been looking for an efficient, affordable AND good mani/pedi. I drove by on this crazy street under construction and had to walk back to confirm the prices. They took me as a walk in. Even with the upgraded pedi, the total w/o tip …”

“I went in for a Gel Manicure. The price of $25 sold me! I’m use to paying $40 In DC. When I arrived I was greeted and seated. I requested a clear gel manicure and she gave it to me. My nails looked good! Not perfect but good. There was a speck of glitter in my nails and also some of my cuticle was painted on. This leads to the reason I gave 3 of 5 stars. Not even 24 hours after my service I noticed the gel lifting on my thumb. A few hours later I notice them on 6 of my 10 fingers. I would definitely go back to give them another chance.”
