    Exactly what I wanted!

    Started going here a few months ago and I'm really happy I did. At my old salon I'd have a broken nail every week. Now my nails don't break at all. Everyone that works there is laid back and super nice. The waiting area has comfy couches to sit on if you have to wait a bit too. Really glad I made the switch to star nails.

    Had a great experience here , my tech was Lana. She listened to what I wanted and fulfilled my expectation and more. Thank you Lana, I'll be back

    Green nail and not fully painted toes

    First things first I want to start off with zero stars but it wouldn't let me. I walked in there and they were extremely disrespectful, knowing they had paying costumers standing right in front of them. Star nails wasnt my first choice, but all of my other options were booked. My toes aren't even painted all they way. Which they filed after they painted so they are currently all chipped. They didn't let me give me a say on how long my nails should be they just did what they wanted. not to mention my toes aren't even fully painted. I asked for all different shades of blues and they put in one LIME GREEN nail!!

    Short review: the pedicure was pretty good and the manicure was excellent. I knocked one star off because the ambiance could be a little more soothing. More detailed review: I've been looking for a good pedicure in Ottawa because I have a vacation home in the area and spend quite a bit of time here. I called for an appointment and was able to get right in. The exterior is rather generic, but once inside, it's very clean and inviting. Fluorescent lighting takes away from the atmosphere, though. I was greeted right away and offered a beverage. They have an amazing selection of color options in polish or gel. I opted for polish on my toes and gel for my nails. As I said, the pedicure was decent. I will definitely come back. I was a little anxious about the mani. I maintain natural nails, and sometimes a manicurist will be too rough. Not here! She treated my nails with due care and did an outstanding job! I regret that I didn't get her name. Overall, Star Nails is a quality salon and I encourage you to give them a try!

    The inspo pic

    Went in with some friends for homecoming nails. I asked for black nails with a coffin shape and silver details like in the first picture. As you can tell, they were square, kind of matte, and the edges were not the glitter I asked for. Not to mention they lasted only a few days before peeling up, breaking off, and chipping. Lucky I made the appointment just one day before homecoming or I would have had to tear the off and get press on's. $70 later, I wish I did get press on's. The price was determined by an owner (I assume) inspecting my nails for a solid 30 seconds and deciding what she wanted them to be. Not to mention, they charge a significant fee for those using card and have an ATM they recommend you use instead. They never told me this to begin with though. Maybe i've just been to some incredible nail places, but never have I ever gotten a result so homemade looking. Never will I ever spend my money there again.

    I come here all the time for my acrylics and I've never gotten a bad manicure the facility is nice and clean and easy to get to as well.

    See all

    Pedicures are great here. You get massage and you can get paraffin also. Very relaxing and my husband loves it too.

    Overall a good experience with a couple of minor issues…read more One, I got here at 2:15 on a weekday. There was only one person getting a manicure and the salon was quiet. Guy at front grabs the gel color swatches and hands to me then directs me to a pedicure chair in the back. I have never been here before so the process was new. A cute older lady was setting up the chair for me and did most of the pedicure treatment. She didn't seem to speak much English but pointed to the pedicure price menu. She also showed me the volcano pedi menu hoo wee that would be a real treat for a special occasion but too rich for my blood. I had gel that needed to be removed and I get it that it is a bit time consuming. But daaaang the pedicure and mani took FOREVER. I appreciate a nail place taking time to have attention to detail and not rushing but this was a very long mani pedi. When the polish was removed the guy from the front took over. He smelled so strongly of cigarette smoke it was a bit of a turnoff. He did however make sure I was happy with the selection of gel color and explained that the confetti gel was clear. And that I might want a solid color under it so I chose white. It was a good choice and I am very happy with the gel color. He also shaped my fingernails very nicely. The color was applied very carefully and I have had a lot of compliments. What wasn't that great in the visit besides the long a$$ time was he cut me a few times with a very sharp tool. Near the end of the pedi he pressed down on the cut with a towel and said he has cut me and will put medicine on it. He put some white cream on the cut. The lady had also nicked me, which was disappointing. The other not so great thing was at the end when I was paying. I gave the guy a cash tip and paid for the service on a card. I was getting my keys out to leave and the guy asked if I wanted him to split the tip with the lady? What? Is that a passive aggressive way to say I needed to give another tip to the lady as well? It was a bit rude and a turnoff. Overall the gel was very nice but such a long time to get done especially when I was the only customer there most of the time.

    Background for understanding: I get pedicures every month…read moreand have been to various salons. I can say this was by far the WORST experience I have ever had. I have chronic ingrown toenails, and like to get them removed with a pedicure. I go every month as to stay on top of them. This is the first time I have been to this salon, but will not returning. First Impressions: I went in with gel on my toes already from my last service, so the lady had to scrape it off. That's not unusual and have had it done before by other artists. However this lady roughly scraped the gel off as she squeezed the hell out of my toes. It hurt so much I cried twice. She wasn't empathetic in the slightest. Besides that the lady was on her phone the entire time and was generally rough with her movements. For example, she ripped off the toe hugger things at the end and said "We are done now. I'll check you out at the front". It was the tone and just everything else that made it a terrible experience. Service: I got the "CALLUS TREATMENT SUGAR SCRUB PEDICURE". I got this treatment to specifically target my heels. They were by no means super cracked, I just wanted softer feet. Tell me how I ended up still leaving with dry feet and rough heels. I also have excess skin around my cuticles that should have been taken care of. I should of just got the basic pedicure so I could have paid less. PROS: Atmosphere - Nice comfortable chairs, clean salon, tvs Conclusion: Overall the salon was clean and has potential to be a really good spot. I think this lady just sucked at her job. I don't like being a Karen and don't leave bad reviews if I don't like something. However this was so bad I don't want anyone to experience what I did.
