Dupin Nail Bar

Je recommande pour l’expertise de la prothésiste ongulaire. J’ai réussi à obtenir un rdv le jour même, un mardi soir. J’ai beaucoup apprécié. Son mari envoie toutes les indications par sms, c’est très pratique.
J’y suis allée souhaitant faire une dépose de ma manucure de résine et poser un vernis semi-​permanent. Il m’a plutôt été conseillé de retoucher mon ancienne manucure qui était encore en bon état.
Pour un remodelage de la manucure en résine (juste poncer et raccourcir) et la pose d’un simple vernis (OPI), j’ai quand même dû payer 29 euros (15+14). J’ai trouvé ça un peu cher, mais le cadre (propre) et leur amabilité m’ont rapidement fait oublier la facture. Je désole toutefois le fait de né pas avoir eu accès à une grille de prix standardisé.
Il y a une grande variété de choix de couleurs, tant pour le vernis semi-​permanent que pour le normal, même si le nude pour peau noire m’a manqué.
Je né dirais qu’elle est absolument méticuleuse comme j’ai pu lire dans un des commentaires parce qu’elle m’a quand même laissé un défaut sur un ongle à la dernière minute sans proposer de réajuster.
Mais en gros, c’était une bonne expérience que je renouvellerai très probablement, d’autant plus que c’est près de chez moi.

This review applies to normal manicure.
I know it might seem strange that the bar has consistent 5-​star review, but let me tell you why:
— i have never gotten as detailed and accurate work as this place
— everything is very clean and sanatized
— the atmosphere is very cosy and friendly, the owners even helped me practice my french!
— the result is amazing, and it feels great!
I would def recomend a visit to this place. Its a charming salon and you will end up with good results!

WOW!!! Awesome experience!
there are not many quality places in Paris for a detail oriented, customer service mani pedi, but thats what I got here! Sundays an «appointment only day» for Dupin Nail, so I was surprised that when I called them at 1pm on a Sunday, they were happy to take me at 2:30. Awesome! Not to mention, NOWHERE is open on Sunday… So super plus plus plus to them for being able to take me. The mani and pedi were AWESOME. She took her time, paid attention to detail, and she even tried her hardest to speak English the whole time… Even though I offered to speak French!
Definitely worth every penny! And also has alot of cafés around… Perfect for a girls relax day or brunch/​tea and nails. Convenient location !

Elle était la femme la plus douce, elle me serra dans un rendez-​vous de fartage et était très rapide et très bon. Je suis un étudiant italien étudie actuellement à l’étranger à Paris et je étais très nerveux d’essayer quelqu’un de nouveau, mais elle était parfaite et très utile
(She was the sweetest woman, she squeezed me in for a waxing appointment and was very quick and very good. I am an italian student currently studying abroad in paris and i was very nervous about trying someone new, but she was perfect and very helpful)

tip top super adresse secrete mais bon allez je suis sympa je partage !!
institut ultra chaleureux dans un petite appartement décoré avec gout, personnel sympatique, vous propose même de venir entre copine pour une tea party toute en se faisant les ongles !! petit ++ ouvert le dimanche mais chutttt

I wish I could find a place in Philadelphia as personal and special as Beaute. Her attention to detail and her friendliness is a happy discovery in the midst of the bustling city of Paris. I had a pedicure and an awesome bikini wax. If I could I would come back here weekly. Thank you!

Petit bijou parisien! Superbe accueil, pedicure impeccable, propre et extrêmement complète! Prix raisonnables et grand professionnalisme. On se sent comme à la maison, je reviendrai pour une manucure et une épilation sans aucune hésitation! Un grand merci!
Real Parisian gem! Very welcoming, perfect and very clean pedicure. I’ve never had such a great job for my feet! Not expensive for the result and great professionalism. You will feel like home! I will come back for the other services without any doubt. Thank you so much!

Do not recommend. Our hotel made an appointment for 2 of us at 1pm and there was only one manicurist there. We were able to do one pedicure and one manicure after two hours, and then left. The manicurist took about 5 phone calls while we were there. Not great and expensive.

I don’t know about all these 5 star reviews. This was one of the most unpleasant mani pedis I have had in a long time. I realize the language barrier was a huge problem — but they barely did anything that most nail salons do — and didn’t fill in the nail with color. I had to finish it myself. :(

Je suis venue pour la première fois après avoir consulte les reviews sur Unilocal.J’ai eu une manicure et c’était bien. Et comme Leila, après une semaine la manicure a bien tenue! Quelle bonne surprise, car ce n’est pas toujours comme ca.
J’ai trouve l’accueil très chaleureux et agréable. Meme si c’est petit, l’espace contient tous ce qu’il faut, canapé, chaise comfortable pour le pedicure et la place pour deux manucures!
Je compte y retourner souvent pendant les 4 mois que j’habite a Paris. Le salon est bien situe, le prix (en tout cas pour la manicure) très raisonnable et l’esthéticienne est très sympa.
Bonne adresse a retenir!

Very torn about this place. I went twice and had 2 very different experiences. I made an appointment both times. The first time, I was the only customer in the salon — it was a very relaxing, personal nail appointment. The nail attendant didn’t speak English at all but she was really friendly and spent so much time and energy making my hands and feet soft and clean. The manicure/​pedicure combo took 2 hours and was extremely thorough — she took care of my cuticles like nobody’s business. I went again on Sunday and had a much different experience. There were 3 people getting their nails done and another 2 people waiting. Despite having an appointment, I had to wait 1 hour before they started my nails. They stopped and started about 10 times and the younger nail attendant did a really rushed and crappy job. I asked the older lady (that I assume is the owner and who did my nails the first time I came) to re-​do them because they were so bad. I was there for 3 hours total, but they only spent ~45 minutes of that doing my nails. I’ll give 3 stars because of how awesome my first experience was, but I’d advise the salon to seriously consider turning people away if they don’t have an appointment. It wasn’t fair to those of us who did. Happy to pay a high price for good nail care but not for such a bad mani/​pedi.

What a wonderful experience. Despite the language barrier and no appointment, I had a wonderful connection and a great manicure. I would go again in a heartbeat.

Je suis venue pour la 1ère fois en suivant les conseils sur Unilocal et je n’ai pas été déçue, bien au contraire !
Sensiblement moins cher que ses concurrents dans le quartier, j’ai fait une manicure, pédicure et épilation sourcil: travail très professionnel, minutieux, dans une ambiance agréable, elle prend vraiment le temps de faire les choses bien.
Au final, plus d’une semaine plus tard, le vernis est toujours en place. Bref, je vous recommende vivement Beauté Dupin ! Compliments assurés ;)

Super moment passé au bail bar.
Ambiance conviviale, on est comme a la maison et la dame est aux petits soins avec nous. Vernis Opi, bcq de choix, deco sympa.
Cependant petit bémol sur le prix (36 € pédicure et 25 € Manicure) ça revient un peu cher de faire les deux… Et très déçue car ma Manicure n’a même pas tenue une semaine! :-(

I am an American studying abroad in Paris this semester. I was worried about getting my nails done here, but I don’t need to worry any more! This place is fabulous and the owner is very nice. I got a manicure and pedicure (it was 55 euro for both) and she did an amazing job. Highly recommend this place to anyone in Paris looking for excellent service.

Ma troisième fois au Nail Bar Dupin, et je né suis pas deçue! C’est toujours aussi bon. Ce que j’aime en particulier, c’est que le salon est ouvert le dimanche et on offre aussi des services le soins visage et epilation. Situé entre Montparnasse et St. Germain, le prix est très raisonnable pour une service exceptionelle.
My third time here and i’m not disappointed! The owner lady is very thorough with her work. Love that they are open on sundays and i am realizing how convenient it is that it’s located right between St. Germain and Montparnasse. Perfect for stopping by on your weekend shopping route. I think next time i’ll try a facial!

I went here based on Unilocal reviews and was severely disappointed.
On my last night in Paris, I was searching for a place to get my nails done. I had acrylics applied 4 weeks prior and needed them shortened and refilled (no lifting or chipping in 4 weeks! Done by Nana at Salon Glitter in Honolulu Hawaii THE BEST!!) I showed up at 11am when they were supposed to be open and no one was there. I returned 20 minutes later and someone finally answered the door. She explained she didn’t have an opening until 2pm. I told her I had a train to catch that night and would it be possible to be done no later than 4:30? She said it would only take her one hour so I booked the 2pm slot.
When I returned at 2pm, she was working on another girl. She told me the girl wanted a manicure too so I would have to wait 30 minutes. No problem. She didn’t finish for almost another hour. She finally started on my nails and was so impressed by my prior work she stopped to take a photo (should have known then this was a bad idea) she worked slowly and kept stopping to answer the phone, put another coat of polish on the customer before me, trying to find supplies etc. I was starting to get nervous that I wasn’t going to make my train, so I reminded her how soon I had to leave. When she finally started to fill my nails in, it was lumpy and completely messy. I tried to tell myself give her a chance to fix it. By then it was already 4:30 and I insisted I had to go. I didn’t have time for nail polish, just finish now please. She kept insisting 5 more minutes! Then she accidentally cut me while smoothing my nails. This was the last straw. I insisted she stop and I must leave. This was at 4:50. She did feel bad and only charged me 25 euro instead of 39, then gave me a bottle of clear base coat and said «put it on while on the metro» are you kidding?! I literally ran to make my train and barely got there in time. I hate looking at my nails now. There are huge divets and some of the nails are shorter than the ones on the opposite hand. I suppose if you are getting the most simple manicure she is fine, but do NOT go here for anything else, especially if you are on a schedule!

I am so glad I found this place! Not only does she do amazing manicures, pedicures and waxing, but she’s one of the nicest people I’ve met in Paris and I’ve really enjoyed our chats. The salon is small and cute and very clean. It’s really a gem and I’ve recommended it to all my friends. I originally found her on Unilocal using this name, but the actual name of the place on her business card is «Beauté Dupin.» The address and phone number are the same.
J’étais ravie de trouver ce selon ! C’est un petit endroit super chouette et propre avec des manicures, des pédicures et des épilations de très bon qualité. En plus elle est vraiment très sympa. Je la recommande à toutes mes copines ! Le nom du lieu est actuellement «Beaté Dupin» mais l’adresse et le numéro de téléphone sont correctes.

Amazing manicure. So kind and patient when I buzzed the door unannounced, with very little ability to speak French. Gosh, I never got her name, but we worked through conversation well enough, and she just worked away not phased when i had to take a work call! So sweet. The small salon is super clean and really adorable. The time she spent making sure the entire process was perfect, was such a welcomed treat in comparison to the dime-​a-​dozen and really expensive salons on the upper east side of NYC! Whenever I’m back in Paris, I will make a point of going back! And, the cost was nowhere near what I pay in the US.
Like the review just before mine, I found it on Unilocal,and love love love that neighborhood, so it was a welcomed wander over from where I am (disappointingly) having to stay with clients in what I think is considered Etoile. It has been one week since my superior gel manicure, and it still looks as though it was done yesterday.
Merci beaucoup por moi tres bonne manicure du jour!

Such a cute nail salon! I’m staying at Hôtel Lutetia and was in desperate need of a manicure. A quick search on Unilocal and this salon came up as within walking distance. I’m so glad I dropped by! The salon goes by Nail Bar right now and the owner is a very sweet Asian lady. I wish I lived in Paris because this would totally be my go-​to place! The prices are very very reasonable. When you’re walking, don’t walk too fast as you might miss it, just look through the windows and if you see someone getting their nails done through the window then you’re at the right place. You have to be buzzed in.
Now onto my manicure, she did such a great job. And as I came in, there was another client getting her nails done who was from NYC and she had said that this manicure was one of the best if not the best she has ever received! I agree! Owner is very meticulous and you don’t get a sense that she’s trying to rush through the job to get you go out there.
Definitely worth a visit! Tell her the Asian girl from California sent you! Hahah

A great find — cute neighborhood salon run by very sweet, kind ladies. I chose the nail polish «gel» which should keep 2 – 3 weeks. It looks like they are preparing to add massage & facial services soon.
I will be back!
