I have been going to Star Nails since I moved to Venice from Boca Raton, FL. My nail techs at Star have changed within the past 3 years but everyone has been excellent. However, I now exclusively use Daisy, and she is, hands down, the best nail tech I've ever had! I recommend the hybrid gel, it's better than sitting with tinfoil on your nails every appointment.

Unfortunately the quality of management & service has dramatically changed. I gave it a couple of tries after new takeover, but my manicures were terrible. read more

I do not recommend. I've tried a couple of times since it is close to my home but every time came out disappointed. Very sloppy pedicures. Today I used my card and was not told total. I was given a receipt. Didn't look at it but did get a voicemail that they undercharged me by $15 and was going to charge my card. What?!!! read more

Dominique did my pedicure today! She hand painted a snowman on my big toes. She was awesome! read more

Made an appointment at Star Nails and Jack did my pedI cure! wORST one I have ever had! Water wasn't hot, nails weren't trimmed correctly, didn't push cuticles back, used OLD polish and I told him it was tacky so after drying he rubbed something on the polish, will NEVER go back read more

It's hard to find good service when from Pitt of town but I was lucky I found Star Nails. A pickleball friend highly recommended Ha & Hannah. I was lucky to get an appointment that day in 10 minutes. Hannah was excellent! I highly recommended this place. read more

Huge dated salon with ample space however the service is less spectacular. Stations are cluttered and in two rows on top of each other. Quantity not quality is the message here. Technicians are either older and shaky or young but both seemed to be inexperienced employees. This is a Male run Vietnamese establishment that has employees and customers monitored. Each working in their own spot. Limited English speakers too. The music was interesting too. My difficulty was with the poorly done job. Polish that's drying up is diluted and the results are faded diluted dense nails. See pictures and you might note that the top coat doesn't even cover edges of nails. Leaving a visible split on the polish. Color doesn't reach top of nails either because technician didn't know what he was doing. Got polish on my skin too and only used his finger to clear it off. I would not recommend for it is as expensive as other places that actually know what they are doing. read more

Went for a pedicure and it's hard to screw them Up. My mom lived in the area & this is her go to place. read more

First off, the swatches do not match. We picked out a light pink and and orange-red color. What we got was mauve and red. Even after complaining and having them start a new color over it was wrong. The whole pedicure lasted maybe 20 minutes. My feet didn't get to soak at all. Worst of all my feet look just as bad, maybe worse than when I went in. The top of my friend toes were scrubbed raw though. First and last time to go there. Don't waste the money. read more

Second visit to this salon, first visit employee never stopped talking, would not let me tell her want I wanted. Did a very poor job on manicure. Second visit had a 3:00 appointment with friend, she was seen immediately but I had to wait til 3:30 before young man slowly came over, he obviously had a very bad cold behind mask. No one was concerned I was just left sitting in cold water for 1/2 hour, no apology! Too many good nail salons to put up with this! Jill B read more

My family and I have been coming here for 5 years. Who said real mean don't get pedicures or manicures? You don't know what you are missing. Especially here is FL when you wear sandals. Make your toes look good! The team at Star Nails are courteous, funny and very good at what they do. If you haven't tried them you should. It's Christmas season, treat yourself! read more

I walked into Star Nails and they immediately seated me for a full. Hannah did such a great job I will never go to anyone else again read more

Summary: They don't know how to do SNS/dip powder correctly and my nails were ruined. I came here last week with my mother in law as a type of bonding/girls' day activity. I was visiting from Atlanta, where I regularly get my nails done (specifically, I do dip powder on natural nails). My mother in law basically never gets manis/pedis and I thought it would be nice if just the two of us went together to be pampered, so my MIL asked her friends for recommendations and they said this was a good place to come. Our pedis were performed simultaneously side by side, and honestly, there isn't really a way to mess up a pedicure with regular polish, so our pedicures were totally fine. We had a brief hot stone massage that honestly didn't do much- the stones are so hot that the nail techs can't really hold on to them for too long. If they had heat mitts on to properly massage with the stone it would probably be more effective. But I will say it was nice, since I haven't gotten that before anywhere. The color selection was not great for the pedis either. We were given one swatch tower to choose from. I just picked a shimmery pink. After our pedis, we were promptly separated from one another where we couldn't see or hear each other. That wasn't the nicest especially since they knew we would be coming together and that we were having two different types of manicures (we had a pre-scheduled appointments and were not walk-ins). Of course, since SNS is the more time intensive process, this means I was separated from her for about an hour. So much for bonding time. My tech began the process of removing my already-existing SNS. He used the dremel bit that has the spiky bits on it and it HURT. I kept squealing and squirming and telling him it was hurting me and he was confused, asking me if I was particularly sensitive. I'm not! Instead of switching the dremel for a gentler bit to buff off the top layer of SNS to soak off, he kept going. Then he wrapped my fingers in foil to get the rest off. Since they didn't have the color I wanted to do, I settled for a glitter dip powder for all my nails, which I absolutely have done before in the past in Atlanta with no issues. He started off immediately with the glitter- no base at all. I thought that was unusual but figured he would know what he was doing. He did 3 layers of glitter, shaped my nails, and then put on 1 layer of activator and declared I was finished. I looked at my nails and saw they were horribly thin- people who do SNS know that typically SNS results in a "thicker" nail which is actually something a lot of people don't like, but that's what protects the nails and lets you grow natural ones long with SNS. I pointed this out and he said "Yes, they're really thin. It's because of the glitter. I'll do a UV Gel top coat." I stopped him and said no thank you, I do SNS all the time and never do a gel top coat. I ran my fingers over the glitter and it was horribly bumpy. I asked him to do another layer of top coat and instead he buffed my nails and then added a layer of activator again... Apparently they don't have SNS top coat here because when I asked where it was he said "no that's the top coat we have." The only compromise he was willing to do was to do a gel top coat, but like I said, you don't do that for SNS anywhere in Atlanta, there's a special SNS top coat that's very thick and glossy... My fingers were also totally coated in glitter and the tech did a half attempt to remove it and then said if I just scrubbed it in the sink it would come off on its own. So my mother in law and I left, both disappointed. The same day, my entire long thumb nail broke off above the nail bed. I couldn't return because it was the NYE holiday and I left town the next day. Giant pieces of my SNS crumbled off throughout the week leaving my nails exposed. They kept flexing (SO PAINFUL) because the acrylic was so weak and thin. I was shedding glitter everywhere for days including while cooking. I made it exactly one week before I came to my usual salon in Atlanta where I re-did my nails and I had to cut all of my nails short since at this point I had lost 3 nails. I did glitter again and my nails are glossy, smooth, and thick because they were applied properly this time. I would not recommend Star Nails at all for SNS because they clearly do not know how to apply it correctly. read more

Being new to the area it can be hard to find a great place for nails and more. I asked a new friend (who had gorgeous nails) who she recommends and she didn't hesitate... STAR NAILS. Two days later I called just before they closed and was able to get a 9:00am appointment the very next day. So let's talk about that first experience! The salon is beautiful. And it has adopted Covid protocols brilliantly. I was greeted warmly, masks on all staff and guests. I was guided to wash my hands, then introduced to Hannah for my mani-pedi. Less than 70 minutes later, after enjoying the the massage chair, the music, being greeted by the owner who checked in on how I was doing, I was on my way. The mani pedi was delightful. Hannah asked and listened to what I wanted and made a recommendation I went with. All in all a great experience! I'll be a regular. read more

Andy was great! I treated myself to the collagen pedicure and the massage was long and perfect! Highly recommend Andy and Star Nails!

Went for the first time for a gel mani and regular pedi and was so pleasantly surprised! Might just be the best mani/pedi I have ever had! The salon is large and bright and the people very friendly and helpful! Highly recommend it! read more

Dominique does the best pedicure ever! She is great with ingrown toenails and uses hot stones for a regular pedicure.

Quality poor. My pedicure is always awful. My feet are more rough when I leave. Tip always needs to be cash.

Very nice place, workers are very nice. They did a great job on my powder dip, & pedicure was very relaxing . Definitely going back .

This place is awesome! I was referred to Star Nails after seeing someone's nails that looked great (I am new to the area). So I went yesterday and it was terrific! Ha did my manicure and did an amazing job! The artwork exceeded my expectations! I then had a pedicure by Tee, which was equally as good. Everyone was very friendly and the place is very clean. I highly recommend Star Nails and this is definitely my new place for manicures and pedicures!! read more

I have been going to Star Nails for over 5 years and I am always happy when I leave there. The staff is very friendly and always willing to work with you. Making sure you are happy with the end results on your nails. It is extremely clean and well-kept and there is plenty of space between stations. I still highly recommend this salon after going there for over 5 years. My nails always look beautiful! read more

I've been to several places around Venice and Star Nails is my favorite. I like the setup of the space, the employees are very nice and I am always happy with my manicures and pedicures when I leave! They only do cash tips though so be sure to bring cash when you go. read more

Really disappointed in their finish product. Two of my nails were so crooked I went elsewhere to get fixed. The edges of other nails were rough. All they were concerned about was speed! read more

It is very important to for me share with you how excellent the Star Nails and Spa that is located in south Venice Florida is. I am always delighted with the professional work they perform on me. My manicures and pedicures are always perfect. The expert technicians are very kind, caring and talented. The spa is very clean, and I enjoy the wonderful luxurious massaging chairs. The management and super staff always make it a true pleasure to be one of their longtime clients and they make me feel welcomed and valued. I recommend you treat yourself to a beautiful experience. You will be very happy that you did. Sincerely, Janet Rusakov read more

I have spent the past year trying to find a nail salon that compares to the salons in Dallas, where i just moved from after 30 years and I finally found it. Ha did the best job on my powder/ gel-the first pink and whites she did for me lasted four weeks, i was shocked. We now went with an hambre Christmas design and I just love it. The salon is very clean and Judy also did a great pedicure for me. I highly recommend this nail salon-it is located by the new Publix going in on 41 and Jacaranda. you will not be disappointed!!. Linda read more

I have been going to Star Nails for over two years. The place is immaculately clean and the service is efficient and professional. Very comfortable pedicure chairs so a wonderful place to just chillax and be pampered. I'm not a chatty spa person so I appreciate the ability to just close me eyes and disconnect. My nails always look great and last a good long time with no chips. I do the dipping powder and Ha always suggests fun new products. This last time I got the iridescent powder over my polish and have gotten tons of compliments. read more

NOT HAPPY 9/1. Today was not a good day!! Seems to be some changes which happens in a lot of nail salons. A new nail tech, donald started my pedicure and didnt handle his cuticle tweezers very well and slit my toe open. Swtiched nail techs and was very uncomfortable the remainder of the session. NO, they didnt comp my pedicure and seemed a bit perplexed by me wanting to file a incident report that i had to write up. I paid for services, but looking back i probably should have just left. Guaranteed I won't be going back and filed a complaint elsewhere too in case this tech isnt licensed. Been going there over a year or so. NOT HAPPY read more

Excellent talent and super attentive. They explain all options that are available!! They have the most color options in the area!!

I popped in after my workout for a desperately needed eyebrow and lip wax. I'm in town visiting so took a chance. They had me in and out in 5 minutes, but also listened to my concerns--I have asymmetrical eyebrows and have been trying to grow one out for years. The woman was professional and did exactly what I asked. I'll be back next time I'm in town. Thanks! read more

I've been coming here for 3 years and love it. It's been great to have a dedicated place for my mani/pedis that always does a great job.

I have been going to this nail salon for almost 2 years and would go no where else. I am very hard on my nails and I never have to go back for a repair. Other salons I have tried I was always going back for repairs! It is a top notch and very professional salon. The owner HA and Larry have always treated me very well. Most of the time I have no idea what color or design I want on my nails and I have Ha select for me... she is amazing! read more

I have been coming here for a long time but the last 2 times they screwed up my appointment and they are always looking at the clock and rushing through your nails. Last time I had to remind the girl to do my cuticles. If they are close to an hour they rush to get done. I am getting ready to switch places. read more

I had a fantastic time here getting pedicures with my mom, sister, and grandma before Christmas. They booked the 4 of us together in seats right near each other and we had a great time getting pampered. read more

If you are looking for a nail salon that is professional, clean, sterile, friendly, and does top notch quality work, look no further! Star Nails is the place you will want to be. It took me six months living in Venice to find this amazing salon and I would not go anywhere else ever again! I have had acrylic nails, dipping, gel, all done at Star Nails and they always come out perfect and beautiful. I am constantly getting compliments on how beautiful my nails look. They use all top quality products so you know you are getting the best of the best. The pedicures are relaxing along with the massage chairs. One of the best things I love about this place is that the employees are all very neat and clean looking and very professional, and Star Nails goes above and beyond to make sure everything is sterile for your own safety, as well as theirs. If you have a special request, do not hesitate to ask one of the owners, as they will accommodate your request and make sure you are content and happy with that service. I highly recommend Star Nails! You will not find a better place in Venice! read more

Went to get my nails done and they have no clue. The gal that did my nails, I felt that I had to guide her along. I asked for a design on a nail and it looks like a blob. Would never go back let alone recommend this place! read more
