    I don't live in Bemidji and chose this place because it had the highest rating over the other places in town. Good god - how bad are the other places in town when this is the "best"?!? My appointment (fill & gel polish) was done at 3pm and by 7pm the polish was peeling off both thumb nails- see photos. Not pictured are 2 other nails that started peeling the next day! I was only in Bemidji overnight & didn't have time to have them redone, although I did stop by the next morning on my way out of town to see about getting a partial refund. Of course the place wasn't open at 9am per their posted hours on Google. I phoned from the road and was told no refund, just come in and get them redone - despite me repeatedly telling the phone guy (who could barely speak English) that I DON'T LIVE THERE! When I asked to speak to the owner or manager, I was then told that person was (conveniently) out of the country for a month! The worst part - I paid CASH instead of using a credit card so I can't even cancel the charge with my credit card company. Avoid this place & I guess try one of the other places in town - although it might be best to just avoid all of them! If I don't get any response to this review from the mystery owner, I'm going to call the Attorney General's office and INS, so as to protect future unsuspecting patrons.

    Skid mark across nail. Spa Manicure

    I chose a pink glitter nail polish and when he put the polish on he put the first coat a bright red. I questioned him and the head lady there. She said that's how they do the polish. Then he put the pink one on top of the red. Well my nails are red not pink. I complained to the lady about the color and she didn't answer me. I was not happy. Then today the polish is peeling off. I used super glue on the one nail but the other one has a skid on it so can't repair. I live 120 miles away and leaving in two days for a family reunion in Canada. I don't have time today travel 5 hours for a redo. Another nail the polish chipped off. I wouldn't recommend this mail place. A waste of money. Cost me $100 which included a $9.00 tip. Which I regret gi

    My cut cuticle

    This is by far my worst nail experience. I came in as a walk-in for a French tip full set and was extremely displeased. The nail tech I had was a male, I don't know his name but he was extremely rough with my nails. The drill burned my nails and nicked my cuticles and made them bleed. The nail glue was adhered to my skin underneath the white tips. A few of my nails are crooked and misshaped. The acrylic itself is so thick and he didn't bother to clean the excess from underneath. My nails are so sore to touch and I have never had this happen before. Also on their price list it is stated "full set $35" but when I got up to pay I was charged $45 excluding tip. I would give this place 0 stars if I could. I do not recommend this place.

    So, I usually go here once in a while. Because there isn't many other places to go to. Today, I went and had an appointment for a fill. I wanted French tips and got them. But when he was filing my nails down, it burned so bad and he kept going! He also had many of my nails left uneven and also forgot to even put a top coat on my left hand! I personally don't recommend, depending on who does your nails you may or may not be happy at the results.

    So where do I start with Star Nails in Bemidji?! Lets start positively; I had my nails done and…read morethey looked nice when I left the store. Thats about all the positiveness I have for this place. I accidentally booked at Star Nails as I'm not from the area. I walk into the store and the vibe is not good, faded ugly paint on the walls (new paint and vibrant colors would go a long way here), no decor except for some really old 1990ish vibe faded pictures of women and their nails. I wasn't impressed with my first step into the door. I asked for DIP nails and they don't have dip??? Like whaa?? What kind of nail salon doesn't have dip powder? I also was SUPER thirsty and needed a water (I'd even pay for it) and she said she has nothing like that. Most average salons have small bottles of water or a can of soda if you ask them (again, I was gonna pay for it!) So, no vibe, no dip, no water. Okay, whatever. I said gel nail polish will be fine. This salon had only 1 tv and it was located on a wall at the back of the store so when you sit at the nail counters, you can't really see the tv - horrible placement. They need more tvs, turn on caption, and place in a spot where people can physically see the tv. You can't play on your phone while getting your nails done so you just stare at the job at hand, right? Lets start with the guy, because he's kind of a piece of work. He comes out and he literally "criticized" EVERYTHING I DID! I could do nothing right in this guys mind. First, this guy shook my fingers and hands and told me to relax throughout the entire manicure. He told me not to look at what he was doing because he said that makes me more tense! Umm, no, this guy made me super tense for some reason because he started criticizing me from the very beginning. Secondly, he put my nails in an acetone bath and I was fidgety, and he told me to "stop, don't fidget, keep nails in the solution" - and I did, I was just bouncing and fidgety with nothing interesting to look at in the store. He seemed very annoyed by me generally and I was extra nice because I didn't want this guy to be an ass to me. He kept bending my fingers and pushing down fingers aggressively because he says I wouldn't relax. "Dude, if you tell me to relax and get aggressive with me, it makes me more nervous so I def won't relax." Third, I didn't get the color I wanted! I picked out a beige that glittered. And I didn't understand why I couldn't pick that specific color. He said something about an under color? The under color was beige. He ended up only putting on the beige color but no glitter?! I was dumbfounded! No explanation, he couldn't talk English very well so I couldn't understand him. I was so disappointed. Fourth, when my nails were curing in the dryer UV light, I always looked to see how deep it went and how far I could put my hands into this. He told me not to look! I didn't want my nails scratching the back of this curing machine and smashing the color all over and making a mess. Don't tell me what to do, dude! There's a method behind my madness; just deal with it. Fifth, this was supposed to be a manicure with gel polish. I didn't even get my manicure. He didn't clip my cuticles or push them back, or get underneath the nails or anything that had to with a manicure. He basically changed the color of my gel polish and I didn't get a massage or anything remotely close to a manicure. Overall, this guy was rude and truly doesn't care about the people walking into the salon. He looked like he HATED being there and he didn't want to work. I will NEVER go back to this establishment to get my nails done...ever. Between the awful aesthetic of the salon and the rudeness of the couple managing this store, it was just a bad experience. Please book your appointments with caution!

    Do not come to this place. They use old files and foot scrubbers. I'm almost positive they don't…read moresanitize the utensils. The containers they use to hold all of their utensils were so dirty with build up of scum. The lady was zoning in and out while rubbing my legs. She didn't file my nails or clean underneath them. I don't know if she was high on pills or not but it really looked like it. The owner is just as rude as all of its employees, if not worse. A very incompetent business. I hope no one has the experience I did. I've never felt so disrespected and humiliated in my life. I'll never come here again when I come to visit my family in Bemidji.
