Have tried every nail salon in the foothills and Star Nails executed the BEST BY FAR. Friendly and meticulous. Only problem is this: when I called for an appointment today was told it's under new management and Larry and Linda are GONE. Was a steady client at Star since 2018. Am mighty bummed. So now what?????? read more

Their phone goes out intermittently so make sure you just go in. Got me in quick, very friendly, meticulous and reasonably priced! read more

Larry ( owner) extremely meticulous ( had nail dip powder & pedi) , salon is the cleanest one Ive ever been in, nice music, Easy parking. They often dont answer phone, keep trying. read more

Nice quality acrylics by Larry at a last minute end of the day appt. He was friendly and professional!

I paid $15 for a manicure and my overall experience was average. I loved the music playlist, the prices are good, and the space is clean. The space isn't too well lit, but each station has lamps. The staff weren't very engaging or friendly. My manicurist hardly spoke to me, but instead kept speaking to her coworker. I would possibly return because of the location and good prices. They only accept cash tips. read more

See all

This is my new favorite nail spot. They have taken such great COVID precautions and are currently doing by appointment only which I LOVE because I was the only one in there for a majority of the time. They were able to make my appointment day-of when I called. It was super clean and organized. The nice two workers were professional and the pricing is very reasonable. I finally feel comfortable going somewhere to get my nails done! Love my nails and the nice massage I got. Highly recommend. read more

Well.. would I go here again? No. I didn't even get the type of nails I asked for multiple times during the appointment. When it came time to pay they didn't take my credit card brand and the lady looked at me super rude as if I was the problem. They made me walk all around looking for an ATM until I came back and they found out they actually took my type of credit card. Don't waste your time here. Going to get these nails I just paid $42 on- taken off.. read more

Clean, and modern. I loved all the green spa chairs. My daughter had a dip manicure and I had a pedi. I really need to emphasize to the staff and owners that the reason I can't do 5 stars is because no one greeted us, no one smiled at us, not once, no chatting or "welcome in" or "thank you for coming." I decided not to get the upgraded pedi and to cancel my daughter's pedi because the atmosphere was not friendly. No one was rude at all. Very businesslike but if you like a more cheery upbeat experience, this probably won't work for you. If you like a nice, clean mani/pedi and zero chit chat, you've found your home! read more

I should have known this wasn't going to be a good place when they messed up the appointment. My boyfriend's mother, who made the appointment, made it earlier in the morning clearly stating that two people wanted to get manicures and pedicures at the same time. Sadly, when we got there, they were incredibly confused and said one person could get a pedi as one could get a mani. We weren't about that and asked if there was a better time to come, frustrated on how this inconvenienced us. We came in 2 hours later and had our pedicures done next to each other, but for some reason our manicures were not side-by-side as requested. To make matters worse, I decided to do a gel manicure, which I don't do since I had bad experiences in the past. My boyfriend's mother assured me that they do a great job...so I listened and decided it couldn't hurt. It's been years since I've tried gel and her nails looked great! I was happy with the way they did my nails and my color, but 5 days after I got the gel manicure (I came on Saturday and around Wednesday I found it slightly chipped)...it peeled off! I was leaving town early Friday and had too many errands to run to stop by and explain my frustration. read more

Star Nails Spa - Gel manicure chipped 5 days after getting it done! Absurd! - Nail Salons Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I had a blast yesterday getting my nails done, I noticed star nails was open while making a trip to whole foods and I made sure to go back and that was a good idea. I decided it was time to get acrylics and Linda did my nails and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. She is so nice and friendly and her husband as well I will definitely be going back. The salon itself is huge! And very *very* clean. They have a large selection of nail polish and gel polish leaving everyone struggling to pick just one. The pedicure chairs are also very nice, I did not get a pedicure yesterday but the other woman there kept saying how amazing it was. They're running a special since they just opened 3 weeks ago, so go check it out! You will not be disappointed. read more

very nice friendly people. Linda took care of me. Lots of colors to choose from. Gel nail was $25 and fair price. I will be back when Im back in Tuscon, Thanks Linda. Happy New Year's eve!! read more

If you need an oasis in the middle of a crazy life, this is where you should be. Star Nails always impresses me with their professional services and my only wish is they had massages and body-wraps. Linda, Larry, Diane, and Tina have all worked on my hands and feet, leaving me fully satisfied. These people are a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend them! On top of that, the premises are pristine and spotless! I live close by but if I didn't, I would still come to them for what I need! You won't be disappointed. I love this place! read more

Loved the whole experience here! Very nice people, friendly and welcoming! Brought in my 9 year old niece for a girl day and they treated her as nice as they treated any other customer which is hard to find. Our nails look amazing and the price was the cherry on top! Will defiantly be coming back! read more

I've had my nails done there before when I've vacationed in Tucson to visit my son and family. I'm particular about my nails so I was very pleased on how they did my gel manicure and they have a variety of nail colors that I love. This past March, I treated my son and his wife to a spa pedicure. I know I should've had mine done too because then the following days, all the nail and hair salons had to close due to the current pandemic. This is a place I would return to because the staff is so friendly and they are soft-spoken, very aesthetic in there. Not noisy with loud music or loud chatter or talking. Very clean. Conveniently located next to a Whole Foods and favorite clothing boutique next door. read more

Never had a bad experience here. Clean, comfortable and they do a nice job! Now have shields over the chairs and require an appointment/face mask. read more

I go to Star Nails when my regular nail salon is closed on Sundays. They were really busy last Sunday but immediately accommodated my request to get a mani/pedi. A lot of the customers seemed to be regulars and the atmosphere was very friendly. Their prices were reasonable and even though they were very busy they didn't rush through the services. I would definitely recommend this nail salon and love that they are open Sundays. read more

I have to rave about the nail place I go to! I've had my share of experiences and let me tell you that all the individuals here really care about your pedicure or manicure experience. It's Star Nails on River and Craycroft-super clean, sanitized, wonderful staff, and a great job and not too overpriced I think! Right by Harvest Restaurant and petco in that Whole Foods plaza! I usually come to see Larry, but the rest of the gals are just as great! read more

I have had a very good experience with this nail salon twice. They are near my home which makes it very nice. Parking is sometimes an issue. The music use to be soft and relaxing. Now it is loud and too modern for me. The other four clients here at the time were all over 70 years of age. Wondering why the music changed? Wondering if other clients felt the same. Hoping they go back to more soothing music. read more

This is my new favorite nail salon. The place wasn't super packed and I got in right away. Linda speaks perfect English and held a great conversation with me! The quality of her job was outstanding and their prices are about $5-$10 dollars cheaper than anywhere else I've been in Tucson. Over all I can't wait to go in again. I would recommend anyone to this place! read more

I try really hard to not post negative reviews..but in my twenty five years getting pedicures..this was the worst....I called to ask how much a pedicure was first...I was told 26 dollars..I got there and they did the bait and switch...showing me that they actually had three pedicures...get this..the first one didn't include callous removal even though on the page he showed me..it said it did..he said it would be an additional 10 bucks..um.. no thanks...the guy was totally unfriendly and seemed angry....so unimpressed..go somewhere else..oh and yes..I wanted to walk out but didn't have the nerve...when I left I did tell him that the place was very unfriendly...I am down here looking at places.to buy and was hoping to find a good pedicure place..this isn't it... yikes..oh and the chairs with the massage were also the worst and most non relaxing chairs i had been in..this is a public service announcement! read more

We had a terrible experience. We made appointments but were still left to wait for more than 30 minutes. When we were finally put in a pedicure chair my husband got his while I waited another 15 minutes. The woman who did my gel pedicure used nippers to remote gel rather than soaking it off. I told her repeatedly that it was painful and she rolled her eyes at me and spoke to the woman next to her and laughed. Worst ever read more

My favorite nail place. The only place I go. I love Linda, Larry, Moi, and Wayne. They are friendly and have great skill. Pretty atmosphere very relaxing. read more

Best place to get your nails done in Tucson. I love this nail salon. Friendly, talented, staff. Star Nails always does an exceptional job, and are kind and patient, with accommodating myself and my 3 year old I. I won't go anywhere else. read more

Here in Tucson for 3 months..I've been to them several times... The owner and her husband (?) do a good job however I have been left mid-manicure after making an appointment with her to do a different client, obviously somebody who she's known for sometime, her husband (?) does a good job, young man that was there did OK, follow up young girl was very sweet however poor job... Will never go back there. read more

Very clean and new nail salon. The ladies were polite and made nice conversation but I'm very disappointed with my gel nails. I already had gel nail polish on and the manicurist filed the top of my nails down even more to get the gel nail polish off making my nails feel very very brittle and fragile. The next day my nail cracked at the tip. Now two of my nails are chipped and I got them done 4 days ago. Never going back. read more

Don't waste your money and time!I rude owner. went to this place because we just moved to this side of town. Person was doing my pedicure didn't know how to do the job. He dropped nail polish on my jeans and floor couple of times. Horrible pedicure. He put 6 code on my toes when I asked him it's too thick he tried to remove it and my whole sandals was red and full of nail polish around it which he couldn't remove. I didn't continue to do the whole pedicure and manicure. I showed owner my jeans and sandals but she charged me for whole $35 pedicure whiteout apologizing. I called her after I left and told her I'm an unhappy client which your charged me full price without apologizing and she said sorry but I think you walked with your sandals and that's the reason!! I was on the pedicure chair and didn't even move. This is not the way you take care of your clients. Bad service. I will never go back and recommend this place. read more

This place was good when it first opened. I always made an appointment for services. I started going there at end of June and every 3/4 weeks. I was among their first customers. I tried to make an appointment for yesterday but could not get a spit so we made the appointment with Libda for 3 pm today. When I arrived 5 minutes earlier she was doing a pedicure and said to wait. From my experience the wait would have been 30-45 minutes. I was very disappointed. I'll never go back! Too bad they don't know to retain customers. There are so many nail salons in that neighborhood that I'll go to another salon read more

This salon is only 3 months old, so everything is new and beautiful inside. Very comfortable massage chairs and my nail technician was really nice. I also was about to walk right in without waiting which is fantastic.I live right now the street so this will be my new go to spot. read more

In town for business and needed a quick pedicure near where I had a meeting. I was pleasantly surprised by quality and prices! Definitely recommend - details below. The website lists the most basic pedicure as the deluxe, and for $45. But sign outside said grand opening with a special for $24.99. Inside I learned that there two pedicures for less than $45 - one for $26 (the one on special for $24.99) and one for $34. I also called the number listed on yelp many times but it was only ever busy. I went anyway and immediately got in without any wait. Needless to say, I'm not sure the website and yelp have all of the most recent info - kind of wonder if it's a re-opening with a new owner or something. The basic pedicure was exactly what I needed - I haven't had a pedicure in over a month, so my nails needed a lot of work and Larry did exactly what I needed very well! Unlike the occasional place I stumble upon during my business travel that ends up ripping my nails and skin, I had no moments of pain. The pedicure was done extremely professionally. The message with the pedicure was longer than most - always a plus. But quality was still a "you get what you pay for" kind of thing - not what you get at a full spa/day spa. Nice, of course, but nothing amazing. The color selections also were average - I only wear OPI and they only have two small shelves of OPI. But in my opinion, if that's the worse thing here you've still got a solid place! Chairs are super comfy but mine didn't have the back massage available - didn't even notice into the end, though, which is unusual for me. Overall, this is a very nice nail salon and would come back next time I'm in town (unlike another salon I've been to here in Tucson). read more

This place is amazing! Larry and Linda are the best! So clean and professional- I won't go anywhere else! Gem in the foothills

A wonderful addition to the neighborhood. The place is new and nicely decorated. The technicians are friendly and do an excellent job. One of the best pedicures I've had. They also use the liners for the pedicures. Very clean. read more

My nail salon for over a year. Lovely ambience-I love the colors and the music! Larry has a great eye for detail and is meticulous in making my nails perfect! I go twice a month, can always get an appointment, and leave relaxed and satisfied! Thank-you Star Nails! read more

Visited Star Nails for the first time Friday for a pedicure and gel manicure. Lee was awesome. I very pleased with the quality of both services and found the salon clean and friendly. I'll be back. read more

I had a horrible experience here. 2.5 hours for a pedicure and gel manicure. Beware!

I came in this afternoon because I am super excited about having a nail salon next door to my apartment finally. I had the older gentleman do a full set with lite pink gel polish. He was very detailed and took his time to make sure they looked nice (I'm a maid of honor in my sisters wedding this weekend). I am very satisfied with my nails he made sure the acrylic is thick just like I like them and the polish color is beautiful. As I was leaving I was informed to take a gift with me which was a bottle of lotion in a pretty little sheer mesh Baggie. The lotion smells amazing. I am def going to let my lady friends know about this place. I did see a group of 8 ladies getting pedicures and it was nice to see them interact and the way the pedicure chairs were arranged looked convenient to where while they waited their turns they could interact and talk. The salon is very clean and pretty as well. Can't wait to go back for fills. Thanks again guys!! read more

I feel so lucky that Star Nails is so close to my home. But it is so nice that I would drive 10 miles to enjoy their relaxing environment and thoughtful, careful service. Clean, fresh, and welcoming. The owners really show that they care. I have regular gel manis and pedis there. Always well done and un-rushed. The owners like to stay up tp date and present something new. Today I added in this luxurious gel soak and moisture treatment to my pedi. Divine! Try it, you will like it, and you will want to go back. read more
