    Badly cut cuticle
    Angela L.

    I stopped by around 5pm and Stars Nail Shop. It was really nice that they can squeeze me in for a mani and pedi. I came in and it didn't look super clean but the lady was nice and attentive. I told her that I called ahead of time for a mani and pedi and she quickly set up the foot soak for me. They used a disposable bag to keep clean which I liked. The water was hot and the jets were perfect. The chair provided massage controller so that was great. I actually changed my mind with regular nail polish and chose to go with gel so my mani and pedi can last longer. The pedicure was good and quick. I saw her take out a tray of tools in the sanitizing box. She scrubbed my feet with a pumice rock and I hope it was brand new but I didn't see. The best part was the foot and leg massage. I would go back for pedicure. For my manicure, I told the lady that my nails were on the thinner side and she said she can add a layer of foundation to help strengthen my nails. I agreed to do it but she never mention how much it cost. She put 2 layers of the gel foundation and then filed it down. She was very rough when it came to cutting my cuticles and the skin around my fingers. My right hand pointer finger was red and i felt a little bit of pain but it was bearable. I chose this chocolate brown color and there's a tiny bit of dust or something on 2 of my nails but it's okay, it's not too noticeable. My bill came out to be a total of $85. I would only come back for a pedicure if I really needed a place to go to. Not sure about the cuticle cutting because it was really fast and rough. I feel that the place can be a little more clean and updated. Prices should be more clear if they're adding different services and products on. Overall, it's a 2.5- 3 star establishment to me.

    I was excited to do my nails as I was refer here by my friend. Helen did my nails. I wants a nude almond shape acrylic nails and she did an okay job. Base on the review I had high hopes for my nails but I think she was having a bad day or something. She didn't push my cuticle. She just file my cuticles and nails. when she was filing my nail it accidentally filed my skin... it causes my skin to bleed. She didn't filled the edge closely with acrylic but she was nice and tried her best. Due to covid I'm letting some of the things slide but this shouldn't happen. I don't do my nails often .... She didn't even give my hands a massage. She was kinda rushing my nails but there was no customer. I liked my nails but my cuticle hurts ... you can tell on the pictures. My overall nails looks good but if you look at it closely there are definitely stops she missed and can do better.

    Full Set of UV Gel Nails - Pink French Ombré
    Cristina G.

    Today was first time visiting Stars Nail Shop and I decided to go big or go home. I took a big leap of faith here by requesting a full UV gel set with a French ombré look from someone who had never worked on my nails before. Gutsy move by me, but it definitely was worth it! I made a same-day appointment with Winnie, as recommended in many of the reviews on here. When I showed up a half hour early, she graciously took me before my appointment time. She looked at one "inspiration" photo of what I was looking for and began working on my nails immediately. She gave me the exact shape, length, and design that I was looking for which pleasantly surprised me. I really am so impressed with how these turned out. In total, it took about 90 minutes which isn't bad for a brand new set. The salon itself is a no-frills, mom and pop type of place but don't underestimate their work. The staff also wear masks, and there are plastic drapes placed at the mani stations between the customer and nail tech. The cherry on top was the price. I paid $60 for nails that other salons would easily charge $85+ for. I can't wait to come back for my next appointment and see what Winnie can create for me.

    We got the $20 pedicure.

    Excellent customer service and positive attitudes, especially if you like to chat in Cantonese/Taishanese. Large, clean nail salon with 2-3 trained professionals offering manicures, pedicures, facials, and waxing. Come around 3pm on a weekday if you don't want to wait, otherwise it gets a bit busy. Good prices too. $20 for a pedicure in a comfortable massage chair (includes the washing, cleaning, massaging briefly, and painting the toes). It got busy pretty fast, expect to wait as needed. Be sure to tip generously. Overall, very nice experience.

    Edges are good
    W K.

    Went there on a Friday morning and had to wait 20min. Their phone wasn't working so I was a walk-in. I did a regular pedi (brought my own nail polish) and a UV builder gel mani with gel color (on the natural nail, no nail tips). Total was 68$ and gave $25 in total for tips because I loved their service and work. They are not like the other nail polish places that are unwelcoming. A little smile and cheer goes a long way and they gave me more than that. I'm not sure who did my nails but I'm guessing she was the lady in charge. No complaints on how my nails turned out. And will definitely come back for a full.

    Day 2 and my nail is cracked!!! Garbage job!
    Jaclyn C.

    I'm always up to trying new places that have these crazy nail designs that are trending, so this place seemed to have hundreds to choose from! My interested was peaked, so I walked in and decided to try it and tack on a pedicure too just to clean them up. The overall feel of the place is your average nail salon vibe- nothing to truly separate it from the rest; nothing memorable really stood out. The TV's were off and all I heard was the traffic outsideThe only thing that did stick out, was how COLD air was!! I understand I walked in as soon as it opened, but put on a space heater at least! As I sat in the pedicure chair with my down coat on, I wasn't even sure if my girl put soap in the water- it looked clear to me. She scrubbed the bottom of my feet with something that looked like SoftSoap that you'd use for your hands. Needless to say, the pedicure was underwhelming. Don't be fooled by the nail designs they've posted!!! I showed the girl an exact picture she posted months ago, and it came out nowhere close to what I asked. $70 in the hole, and not even 48 hours later, my two thumb nails cracked!! What a waste of time and money!!! RUN!!!

    $20 (Nov 2019)
    Shuwen L.

    I got a gel manicure here for $20 (circa 11/2019). I thought the price was very reasonable, compared to other nail salons around Brooklyn/Manhattan. The lady who did my nails was efficient.I went on a Monday afternoon. I took one star off because some of their tools didn't seem the cleanest, or didn't look clean. Also usually after soaking, filing, and cutting cuticles they will wipe your hands down with a warm towel. But she told we to walk over to the sink to wash my hands. I thought that was strange and I would prefer if I didn't have to move around (I'm not a diva, please believe me). I did a glitter nail on my ring fingers. She did two coats of the glitter polish then one top coat. I can still feel the grit from the glitter polish. Wished she could've done one more coat so the nail is smooth.

    Got my nails done here! It was such a reasonable price for nail art like this! $60 and they were very patient and sweet. It took 2 hours to finish! It's been almost 3 weeks no lifting!

    Beautiful green gel manicure.
    Emily C.

    This place is my go-to nail salon. I usually get a gel manicure. Pre-Covid price was $20, I went today and it was $25 -- which is still an absolute bargain for the service, especially nowadays. The service is very consistent, I'm always confident that I'm going to leave with a fresh set that'll last at least 3 weeks. Love love love this place & definitely recommend.

    My nail broke within one week!
    Jeniffer R.

    I walked in on a Saturday and it was fairly busy but they took me in fast. They had a promo for $29.95 for a gel mani and regular pedicure and decided to try it. Pedicure was perfect, but the gel mani started to come off after just a week. I don't think I'll be coming back.

    Decided to try a new color that they just got in.
    Ellen K.

    I always enjoy my visits here. When you find a great technician, it's worth the extra travel. Everyone here is really personable and spend the time to perfect my nails. I never feel rushed to finish. There was a time I was waiting and allowed me to sit at the pedi massage chair. Love this place!!

    Sloppy and rushed polish

    This is my second visit to this shop and will be my last. The first time I left happier, although the gel did not last the expected 2 weeks. Both times I paid for 3 manicures and pedicures. This time I got acrylic with gel. The nail polish was done in a rush and not all over my nail. I pointed it out to the tech, who started arguing with me that it's my skin. It was not my skin. I believe she thought I wasn't going to tip her , which is why her demeanor changed once I paid and she started painting. I usually tip at least $15 when I get my own nails done, let alone when I'm treating family members. She did a horrible job with the polish. I didn't even let the nails dry, they look horrible and she shorted herself her tip due to her nasty attitude. They also do NOT wash the tubs out between pedicures. Highly unsanitary and gross!

    Different angle
    Samantha O.

    Fast but efficient service. I got a beautiful and thorough pedi. The you g lady was very gentle. My pink gel with tips and stones is gorgeous! My first visit here but I see myself becoming a regular. I added a photo, but its just lovelier in person. They're very clean and natural looking.

New business management and new business name: Magnolia Nail Spa 4 The inside of the shop is still the same as old business Le Charme but it's not the same. Service and quality isn't the same under their old manager Ryan. I personally felt like it was a trap that they continue to use the LeCharme name and website when they had clearly changed. I was confused when I arrived and saw the name change but still gave them a chance as I had booked an appointment via Le Charme website and only had that day to get my nails done before going to a wedding on the West Coast. Also, even though I had an Spa Pedicure appointment for 10AM (opening time) I still had to wait. Other customers came in (either appt or walk in) and were seen first... they also had to call for more Nail technicians to come. I sat at the manicure station flipping through gel color templates waiting for Nail tech to see me. I already choose but waiting, at one point they had forgotten me until someone asked me what I wanted and I had to repeat myself again. I picked a spa pedicure treatment and selected gel as I heard gel last longer. It was my first time getting gel but I wanted to look my best for the wedding I'll be attending. I asked for paraffin wax for my feet and callus treatment. They were confused and said paraffin is already included in the spa package (I remember it is usually for heel only and I wanted for the entire feet) but they insisted it was included and for the entire feet, so I said okay and let them do their thing. Service was decent but my nail tech had rushed and missed a few spot. She didn't apply the polish carefully and throughly. It was like coloring your hair, they always leave a gap from the hairline so you can return for touchup. In my pic, you can see my toes didn't look as nice and pic was taken about 1.5-2hrs later (after appointment, I had quick lunch and went straight home). While I did enjoy the spa pedicure, because I wanted to pamper my feet, she was abit rough at times and rushed it. And no, she didn't apply paraffin wax to the entire feet; just the heel. I was willing to pay extra but they didn't do that. If you don't know, paraffin wax help rehydrate and trap in moisture and it's particularly effective for those who often get calluses to help in removing dead skin, and healing dry patches. It acts like a form of heat therapy and can help increase blood flow, relax muscles, and decrease joint stiffness. It can also minimize spasms and inflammation as well as treat sprains. When it was time to pay, I thought I would have to shell out more for everything as I didn't know what the actual cost would be. I wanted Spa Pedicure package with Gel Color. Callus Treatment $10, Gel pedicure $55 & Spa Pedicure $45. I had assumed they would charge abit extra for the Gel coloring ontop of the Spa Pedicure package. After I paid and walked out (no receipt was given to me and I had hope to take a pic of the bill but the total was present quickly to me and was out of my view) and walked down the street, the owner lady came out chasing me saying I needed to pay more. I follow back and she said something else was charged to me.. again wasn't able to see the bill and had to trust her word and paid more. I finally left and disappointed later on when I examined my feet at home. I think its time to find a new Nail Salon.

The technician repeatedly focused on the corner of one toenail that appeared completely fine, continuing to poke and cut at the area despite there being no visible issue. She also seemed visibly frustrated throughout the service, sucking her teeth in frustration as she went over this area again and again with the cuticle cutters, which added to the discomfort. Now, 6 days later, I'm experiencing pain and warmth in that toe, which makes me concerned that the excessive cutting has resulted in irritation and may have even caused an ingrown toenail -- not cool, very awkward & disappointing experience. Manicure: The manicure itself was acceptable, but the process felt inconsistent and unstructured. Each hand was treated differently, and tools--specifically the cuticle nipper--were not cleaned during the service, resulting in visible buildup of cuticle cuttings on the tool, which was unpleasant and concerning from a hygiene standpoint. Overall, this experience left me uncomfortable and disappointed, and I wouldn't return.

I had what might be the most unpleasant nail appointment I've ever sat through. From the start, she was rushing, and not in a subtle way. When I politely asked her to ease up because she was hurting me, she barely grazed her glove and said "see? Doesn't hurt" -- completely dismissing what I was telling her about my own pain. She then continued at the same pace and pressure. Being heard was simply not on the agenda. The quality of the work matched the attitude. One of my nails had a visible thread of polish hanging off it, clearly about to crack, and when I pointed it out she told me she didn't know what I was talking about and couldn't see anything. I could see it. And sure enough, by the end of the same day, that nail had already cracked and was looking overgrown. Same-day results like that tell you everything you need to know. I paid good money to leave feeling dismissed, hurt, and with nails that were already failing before I got home.

I was initially told a nail design would cost $40, but after I declined, the price suddenly dropped to $10, which felt misleading. The worst part was that I was left with my hands under the UV lamp while my technician walked away to do someone else's pedicure. I was sitting there for several minutes, and the heat became so intense that I had to speak up because I couldn't keep my hands in the lamp any longer. She only returned after I complained I was going to leave. When I explained my negative experience to the man working there, he only asked about the clear gel on my feet and ignored the rest of my concerns. IT WAS CLEAR how can I show that?
