Matching Cat Eye Mani's with my Baby Sis!

My baby sister and I had an amazing experience at this salon. I'm very picky about where I go because a lot of salons do not follow sanitation guidelines. But the minute I walked into C Star, I felt at ease. The salon is beautifully decorated, they had the most lovely incense burning, and they brought out snacks when we got there. They had their sterilization unit at the front where guests could see. They had every color under the son to choose from also! The gal who did my nails was Irene and I can't say enough good things about her. She was an absolute sweet pea to talk to and her skill and knowledge about nails unmatched. I'm sad I do not live in LA because this would be my place if I did. Please do not miss the opportunity to go here!

Snacks and water

Had my deluxe foot care pedicure done and it was wonderful! My service was completed by Olivia and she took her time and was meticulous with my feet and nails. I felt pampered and comfortable. They even gave sweet little snacks and water. My toenails look great and my feet feel relaxed. Will be coming back!

I was looking for a new nail salon/tech that could mimic a nail design I found on xiaohongshu (aka Rednote in the US) and stumbled across this business here on Yelp. My nails were done by Ling (the owner) and her attention to detail is amazing! She accurately executed the design from the photo I sent her. She also brought to my attention the alignment and direction of 2 of my nails (which no other nail salon/tech has ever done before) and made sure my gel extensions were uniform. This is the first nail salon that I genuinely feel like making my go-to because of the designs offered, the execution of desired designs, and customer service. Overall loved my experience at C Star Nails and highly recommend getting your nails done here!

I had a pleasant experience. Nikki was my nail tech. She was very efficient and gentle. She kept asking if I was okay when she was filing and buffing my nails to make sure I'm not hurt or cut. That's very considerate because I have been to other nail salons and they would buff so fast they cut me- then I feel the burn for a couple of days. That's annoying that's why I never go back. Also Im prone to get eczema flare up after exposure to UV light so I asked for gloves- she kindly cut the fingertips of the gloves. A huge plus for doing this for me. This place just opened a month ago. The ladies working are all helpful. I was greeted with a bottle of water & some snacks. The salon is very clean with comfortable chairs & a cute plushie as a back pillow. This is important if I'm sitting for 1-2 hrs to get my nails done. I felt comfortable. My total was $81 & I spent 2 hrs here. The vibe is cute. Plenty of parking. Def would come back or better yet become my usual spot.

Last week before removal, and all nails were still intact. Great retention!

second pic Last week before removal, and all nails were still intact. Great retention! Had them on for 4 WEEKS ! very pricey place tho !

I got this set for $135 just for the rhinestone to fall off 4 days after getting it. I've been here 3 times, this place does give good service, however, the quality just doesn't match up the pricing. Every time I would have some problems with the nails like chipping, etc. The owner did reach out and solve the problem out at the end, which I appreciate. It proves once again this place takes care of customer service really well.

Ling did a great job on my gel mani pedi, she was meticulous and did everything perfectly. She was also gentle with my ingrown toenails. It did take me about 2.5hours to be done even though I only had a solid color type of work done. They are on the pricey side but very much worth it. The place was clean, every detail seemed to be carefully thought well of and her tools are disinfected after every use. She even provides snacks and bottled water. I highly recommend coming here and appointments are a must!

This is a new grand opening, and I'm so glad I came! Nikki did my manicure and she was amazing -- I showed her a nail design I wanted, and she copied it about 90% perfectly! I was so impressed with her attention to detail and how carefully she worked. Ling did my pedicure and she was wonderful too -- very gentle, thorough, and gave such a relaxing massage. The salon is clean, friendly, and comfortable. I left feeling super happy with how everything turned out. Highly recommend Nikki and Ling! I will be coming back!

"If you're looking for a high-quality nail experience, ask for Ling at C Star Nails. She is an excellent professional who is very attentive to detail. I never felt rushed; she took her time to listen to my requests and ensured I was happy with every step. Plus, the hospitality is 10/10--they even greet you with snacks! I'm beyond happy with the service and the overall vibe of the salon."

I was looking for a new nail salon and I think I found a little hidden gem! The interior is very cute and cozy, and everything is so clean and well organized! Irene was the nail tech did my pedicure for me and she was so gentle and careful. I appreciate that she took her time and didn't make me feel they were rushing to get me in and out. I wasn't sure how flexible their schedule was, so I called before coming in to see if they were ok with walk-ins, and they were able to take me in within the hour! I do recommend calling and checking with them for walk-ins though just in case if they're busy. That way they can focus on giving you the best experience without feeling rushed!

Natural nails with hard gel

So happy I found this nail salon! Such a gem and everyone was so nice. Two of my natural nails were torn and they did such a good job repairing them. Kept as much natural length as possible, and the pedicure was lovely as well! Did hard gel over natural nails, and the shape is exactly like the reference I brought. So happy

So happy to have found such a gem of a nail salon in the SGV. It's my second time here for builder gel manicure so I can speak for the consistent attention to detail and quality of nail care I receive here! Will definitely be returning!!

Another artist got started on taking off my old gel set until my artist came. My design was fairly simple and i understood that now she was on a time crunch due to her having another client at 12 but was postponed since the client was also getting her hair done.. the only design i wanted was a silver cross on both of my ring fingers and i thought we were able to do both. She ended up asking me if i wanted to do the design on both ring fingers and i said yes but if you dont have time its fine since at that point i knew she ran out of time.. Im an understanding person and wasnt expecting much compensation but I felt disappointed at the service and my time not being valued. waited almost an hour for not even a complete design on both of my hands and paying the full price...

Since Nail 20 Club was fully booked, they were able to fit me in last minute at InTrend for a 5 PM appointment, which I really appreciated. I had a great experience at this salon. I've been to a few nail salons before, but my nail artist, Jo, really stood out. She took her time shaping my nails and paid close attention to detail. I requested gel extensions with multiple designs, and the total came out to $118. Considering the level of detail and the time she spent, almost 2.5 hours, I definitely think it was worth it. The process was a bit long (my back was definitely feeling it by the end), but I'm so happy with how my nails turned out, perfect for graduation! The salon itself has a really nice ambiance, and you can tell the artists here are skilled, especially when it comes to intricate nail designs. Thank you again for accommodating me last minute. I'd love to come back and book with Jo again!

She's incredibly skilled, detail-oriented, and really takes her time to make sure everything looks perfect. I usually get a hard gel overlay, and it lasts over a month every time, which says a lot about her work. Sunny is also super sweet and professional, which makes the whole experience relaxing and enjoyable. The salon itself is clean and welcoming, but Sunny is truly the reason I keep coming back. If you're looking for a nail tech you can trust, ask for Sunny :)

Everyone was incredibly nice, and I'm super picky about my nails, but my Gel-X came out amazing. She took her time and made sure every nail was perfect, and you could tell she really cared about her work. She even gave me a triple antibiotic ointment to go when I got a small nick--which wasn't her fault at all; my cuticles were extremely dry and already in bad shape. I really appreciated how attentive and caring she was. I'll definitely be returning. I've been to high-end nail salons and paid well over $100 for Gel-X and still haven't had my nails come out this perfect. So happy I found this place!

They last the longest, and I only had one time where it didn't turn out the best after time but they used builder gel after. I don't think it's necessary, because all the other times the regular gel is great. The pedicure is fine too. I'm a simple girl I don't do anything crazy with designs lately but they do good work. Texting is very responsive as well. Because the nails last so long despite me being very rough (I lift weights, do ceramics, went to travel where I was in the sand and sun) I recommend this place every time!

Friendly nails is honestly one of the best nail salons ever! This was a walk-in experience for me…read more Glad to know that they take walk-ins on a Saturday, but definitely call ahead if they're available. As in the name, the staff is very friendly.The space is very cutesy, very demure. Ella was the tech who worked on my nails. She's the best and I would definitely come back to book another appointment with her. I gave her my inspo and she delivered. She helped choose the color, the chrome, and checked if the dots were perfectly sized to my liking which she hit spot on. My nails coming in was a hot mess. Each and every nail was at different lengths. She made suggestions on the length and shape of the nails that would similar to the inspo and suit my hands best.

I forgot who my manicurist was. I do like that my polish never lifted in 3wks! So her prep was well…read moredone! I was able to snag an appt same day, so if you need something done right away with pretty darn good results, this is the place. No advance appts required. The only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars was because my overall salon experience was lacking the "treat yourself" vibe. I didn't get much in way of massages and my gel polish application was slightly uneven as in excess gel in some areas and less in others. In addition to that, I felt like the price was a bit steep for what you are getting. I got a cat eye gel manicure and regular pedicure. My total came out to $100, no designs. I do have naturally very short nails. the entire time my nails were being filed felt like flames to my finger tips because she kept the nail filer on my skin and the constant rubbing did heat up quite a bit. Had I written a review right away, I think I would've rated them lower for the overall experience. But given that both polish on my fingers and toes are still fully in tack, I can at least say they now how to properly prep the nails. I just removed the polish and I'm really glad the nail tech used gel builder on my nails prior to the polish. My nails were so thin and tiny. I don't see any ring of fire so YAY! would I go back? Probably, if I needed a last min job, I would definitely come back for the convenience.

I've been getting my nails done for over 10 years, and I've never felt this uncomfortable with a technician before. My pedicure was great--the technician was very kind and pleasant. Unfortunately, my manicure was the complete opposite. I had already cut my nails short beforehand and purposely didn't file them because I expected the manicurist to shape them nicely and evenly. Since I wasn't getting color, I expected her to at least pay attention to the shape of my nails, but I felt there was very little attention to detail. I politely asked twice if she could shape them more evenly, and both times she responded with noticeable attitude. By the second time, she seemed visibly annoyed, so I decided to let it go rather than make the interaction more uncomfortable. I left unhappy with my manicure. She also left my hands oily from the cuticle product, which made the service feel unfinished. The pedicure technician was lovely, but the manicurist's attitude and behavior made the experience uncomfortable enough that I won't be returning.
