Andica was a delight! Excellent mani/pedi. Salon is very clean and inviting. All instruments were individually wrapped. Prices were about the same as other salons in the area. read more

No. Doesn't even deserve the 1 star. I went today for my wedding nails so that was a wonderful feeling right before my wedding ... for this woman to be so incredibly rude to me. Over the phone, I was told a gel overlay would be $55.00 (a reference photo was also given) The advertised sign has a Full Set french ombré listed at $60.00 But at the end this lady said my nails would be $85.00 Because she was rude and annoyed that I asked her to please clean up my nails after sending me off with the spray polish all over my fingers. I didn't need some completely unnecessary terrible attitude. No one does. I will never come back here again. Thanks again for being awful and then making up your own price because I asked you to clean up your messy work. read more

I don't usually do reviews but I feel that I must im this situation. The reason I chose this place was because one of my patients recommended it, specifically with Olivia. So when I made the appointment I specifically said I want it with Olivia. They called me the next day stating that she's no longer available that day, so I made it for another with the same person. I get there and im seen right away half way thru it I notice someone else being called Olivia! When my nails were done they looked ok at first but, then I noticed most of them were crooked!! So I made another appointment to fix them and specified that I wanted Olivia. Guess what, next day another call and I can't see Olivia bc she doesn't have a set schedule she comes when she wants. Ok, I ask if there's someone else, they say her husband. Ok made tje appointment with the husband. Then I get a text saying my appointment is canceled and I HAVE to see the tech that initially did my nails! I feel.so dismissed and upset that this happened. I didn't deserve that treatment. This was my first experience and it was terrible. ​ read more

If your looking for a quick place that doesn't really put any effort into your services and rushes you the entire time while being rude this is definitely the place for you. From the moment I entered I felt very uncomfortable and had a bad feeling but I put my feelings aside and decided to give them a try... BIG MISTAKE. The lady who started my nails was a pedicure lady and she didn't even wipe down the area where another lady was sitting right before she did me. You could tell she didn't have the first clue about nails. She actually cut me really deep while trying to "shave down" my nails. She didn't apologize or anything. Just continued and rolled her eyes when I flinched and said ouch. Then if that wasn't enough she was coughing the entire time and kept bringing down her mask and cough. I was NOT the only customer who witnessed this and we both felt extremely uncomfortable. Finally the manager came over to do my nails. She was not friendly or talkative at all. She just rushed the entire time. I even had to remind her multiple times to fix this or that she forgot a nail or two. I can easily tell she was overwhelmed and understaffed but that's no reason to rush clients or be rude. We are all paying customers and deserve to be treated with respect and kindness. She didn't even finish my service before jumping onto another client and doing us both at the same time. Honestly it was not a good experience at all and I would not waste my time or money. Not to mention the outcome was horrible.. my nails are super dull, bumpy and not well done at all. I can see every crease in my nails and that wouldn't normally happen if they were done correctly. *THEY DID NOT SANITIZE ANY PRODUCTS WHILE I WAS THERE AND I DID NOT WITNESS THEM USE STERILE ITEMS BE CAREFUL** read more

I went to this place for years before new owners took over few years ago. It was SO much better before. Now it's run by manager Olivia who is so unwelcoming and rude. First time I walked in to make an appointment she barely acknowledged me and acted like scheduling me was the Biggest inconvenience! I should have gone elsewhere back then. First impressions usually correct! She needs a master class on how to smile, greet new customers and repeat customers by name, chit chat a bit. Basic customer service 101 that she lacks. And no one else seems to speak English there so you are stuck dealing with her as gatekeeper. She rushed me so much my first appt I decided to go to Phu her brother. Who does excellent work but won't really talk - which is fine. I went 2/3 times the last two summers (grew up in Brick, but now live out of state and only spend summers here) and because it's close to my house so wanted to make it work and not drive too far. But alas the emotional energy needed to try to relax and enjoy a Mani/Pedi at this place is just too much. One time I had to ask them to please change the TV (blaring) channel of a violent movie playing (with guns) - a kid was also in salon - and they did, but Olivia seemed to glare at me afterwards. All she did was glare - and not sure what I ever did to get on her bad side. (Also, why play a TV AND music on speakers at the same time? It's totally chaotic feeling in there and Not relaxing most of time. They also allow people to talk loudly on their phones. I was once late for an appointment - I forgot about it cos family member was in hospital and Olivia called me. Anyway, I rushed over and they accommodated me 45 min later - but again Olivia glared and I think I became a "problem customer" in her eyes. Basically, I would avoid this place unless you can tow the line and stay in Olivia's good graces and abide by her rules of order. I've recently found another nail place in Brick and one in Point Pl and they both had front people who actually smiled, acted happy I came in, and both were incredibly welcoming. It restored my faith in Jersey Shore nail salons! ;). Im so excited to be rid of this "Sea Stuck" very bad vibe, unhappy place. Do yourself a favor and Avoid! There's so many better salons out there a few miles away! read more

This place is awful. An extremely unprofessional and rude manager. When you ask her her name she replies very rudely"why you need to know". It's dirty as well. I have never had a nail fungus until I went here. I would NEVER go back nor would I ever recommend this dump. I rarely Post, but this place deserves the words. read more

Spending 45 minutes with bad paint. Also they running customers, not doing foot massage.

awful service and rude manager. Made me feel so uncomfortable and embarrassed and wouldn't do the shape I was asking for. seems every nail place around here is just so unwelcoming and unprofessional. such a shame because I live so close by and was really hoping for a better experience. read more

Based on visible photos and reviews this account must not have been updated and is under new ownership. I absolutely love this place! I see Nail Tech Phu religiously. His attention to detail is impeccable. He pays attention to his client's likes and his mani/pedi massages will put you to sleep. The staff is incredibly professional, friendly and takes care of their guests. Based on my observation, each nail tech/esthetician is busy - walks-ins are welcome but I recommend scheduling an appointment. The location is renovated, has the best nail equipment and incredibly clean. I highly recommend, 10/10. read more

I've been going to this salon since it opened and I absolutely love it. It's very conveniently located, very clean, and has a calm beachy vibe. John and Julie have always done a great job on both my manicures and pedicures. I think the price is also pretty reasonable for the service you get. I usually make appointments, but have walked in with no appointment before and was accommodated pretty quickly. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. read more

This place is really nice and professional staff, they try hard to make sure you are happy with the service and leave satisfied. I am not sure why there are so many negative reviews, I really like it here... spa like and they have good movies playing all the time. read more

Sea Star Nails & Spa - Polish streaky and thick - Nail Salons Near Me - Brick, New Jersey

Best nail salon in Brick!!! Everyone is so friendly and I always leave happy with the service. Fair prices and overall a great experience.

The guy was on the phone with apple the whole time while doing my pedicure and was very rude.

Pedicure was done by a male; didn't catch his name. He was a little rough. I asked for my toenails to be cut short, they were not. I had not gone for a pedi in some time and my feet were dry, they still are. Pretty lazy with the pumice stone, I had to take care of it when I got home. Probably won't go back here. Giving 3 stars bc they were nice. No plexiglass on stations or curtains between pedi stations during covid. read more

I've been going to Sea Star for about 2 years and I just keep going back. Julie is amazing, highly recommend.

This is a very pleasant atmosphere in which to have your nails and toes pampered. I have been going there since it opened and love it. Julie is very pleasant and does an excellent job on both mani and pedicures!! read more

Just visiting for the holidays and needed a great pedicure in a atmosphere that would put my mind in the clouds, and ran across this cozy lil nail salon with a beach spa atmosphere, the place is very clean staff well trained and very professional setting overall the music that was playing was like music to my soul I feel like the technicians hands were moving to the sounds which literally puts u in a trans, this is my 1st but will be my go to when I'm in town for now on, if u enjoy being treated with care go here give it a try I guarantee you'll agree.DON'T CHEAT YOURSELF TREAT YOURSELF..............ENJOY read more

Do not go! I went and asked a gel manicure. I should have left in the beginning. I sat and waited over a half an hour with a "helper" who sat in front of me and watched a technician work on another customer. Halfway through she got me water to soak my nails, that was frigid by the time I was invited to use it. Then I had one of the worst manicures of my life. I had one person start and another finish. The second was so harsh and heavy handed it was not pleasant. Then because my regular place was closed I got an underarm was after I was told it was $15 I was charged $25. On top of this the technician used the same one strip for both sides and did a horrible job. This place is so not clean and the people obviously don't know what they are doing! Do not go! read more

Bad experience & will never go to this nail salon again! $50 for a regular pedicure & gel fingers - way overpriced! Pedicure was worst ever - crooked with unwanted streak down the middle of the big toe. Stay away read more

My gel manicure lasted LESS than a week! Very upset for the money I spent. Got a manicure, pedicure & brow wax, spent just shy of $100 with tip. NOT going back. read more

I am not giving this salon any stars! This was the absolute worst salon experience I have ever had! Both my daughter and myself went for pedicures and gel manicures, we had an appointment but they made us wait for 15minutes. The man that worked on my nails was a rude and angry person he went so far as to throw the towel on the floor after I told him that my gel manicure did not look good. My gel manicure was horrible he had no idea what he was doing, he didn't apply the polish correctly so it did not reach the base of my nails and looked terrible. My daughter had the same experience her gel manicure was completely streaky. As for the pedicures they were terrible as well, absolutely no massage was performed and they did not even clean the nails DO NOT GO TO THIS SALON IT IS AWFUL THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND DO NOT CARRY QUALITY POLISHES OR GELS THEY USE CHEAP KNOCK OFF BRANDS TERRIBLE! TERRIBLE! TERRIBLE! read more

Had an appointment to have my nails done for my prom. Waited an extended time even thou I made appointment and made sure they had enough time to take care of me when i made this because previously was sent out without polish cause didn't have enough time to finish?!! Several nails were clearly crooked when done and needed to be fixed. Was told they can't be perfect and I was a "pain in the ass" and to get out of the salon. Will never go back and everyone should avoid this nightmare. read more

This is a great nail salon! After getting my nails done elsewhere in Brick and having an awful manicure done, I tried Sea Star nails a couple months later and they did an amazing job!! They are open on Sundays and took me right away. The owner was super nice and very knowledgeable on nails and different products and manicures. She told me how to shape my nails so that they don't break so easily and told me about different manicure options. I had a gel manicure and it looks beautiful! Everyone in the salon was very nice. Great experience overall and would definitely recommend! read more

I'm new to the area and gave this place a try. It's clean and the people are very nice. They did a great job and I'll definitely be coming back! read more

As soon as you walk in the salon you feel relaxed and welcomed, they have a tv where you can watch anything as you're getting you nails done. I went to get a pedicure and let me tell you I had the best experience! They left my toes very clean, they actually give you a leg massage and apply a very refreshing minty scrub to your legs. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

John was great. My first time here and I will definitely be back! He was really meticulous. That's saying a lot coming from a Virgo. Really clean as well. read more

Frequent customer, but will not be back. Was getting a manicure & one other customer walked in. Rushed me & didn't get usual hand lotion with massage or warm towel. Asked Julie why she left that out & said I didn't get it because I didn't get a gel manicure!! I never get a gel manicure! She knows they lost a frequent customer. There are too many other nail salons in the area to get sub par service! read more

Tried this place out for the first time yesterday. I had an appt at 5:30 but had to wait a little. But it was worth it. Julie is awesome! She did my pedicure, manicure and wax. Definitely my new place! read more

This place is very close to where I live, so I gave it a try. Walked in with no appt and was taken right away for a gel polish change. I was in a hurry so I didn't opt for a full manicure, but likely will next time. They did a neat and clean job, calm atmosphere, and pleasant people. The only downside was that I couldn't tip on my card- I have to remember to bring cash next time. read more

Worst experience! Should have walked out when the girl who was doing my nails said she was in high school and not professionally trained to do nails. Illegal. I got a pedicure and gel manicure- my polish was off in 3 days. My daughter got gel fills and 1 person started her and had no idea what to do, someone else finished her and took so long she didn't have time to stay and have them polished. Her nails were lifting in less than a week and we had to go get them redone. Terrible experience I wouldn't waste my money there again! read more

This local place is usually pretty accommodating however the products don't seem to last very long. Also they are not very professional. I was getting my nails done and the owner and the girl who was doing my nails got into a fight,..I think it was over the tip from the previous customer (they were screaming in another language) I had to leave in the middle of getting my nails done. I was so uncomfortable I will never go back read more
