Came here on my birthday for a gel pedicure and an acrylic full set. Tri did a phenomenal job on my full set. The entire staff took great care of me and I'm very pleased with my nails. Will definitely be coming here from now on.

Annie did so good I love how she did it BOOK HER!!!!

really love the way Annie did my nails because she was so kind and patient with me. She paid attention to every little detail and made sure everything looked perfect. Her creativity and talent truly showed in the final result, and I felt so happy and confident after she finished. Annie made the whole experience fun and relaxing, and I would definitely go back to her again because she is amazing at what she does and makes people feel special always every single time.

Been coming here for a while now and I'm never disappointed. Thank you Annie!! She always gets me right when I come in! 10/10 highly recommend my go to spot for a mani pedi for sure!

I want to start by saying these folks are really nice & it's probably a great salon for most people. The atmosphere is very relaxing inside. However, I went here a few weeks ago for a dip manicure and specifically told the manicurist that I am severely allergic to gel polish and that I get contact dermatitis every time it touches my skin. When I go to other salons and tell them this they make sure to do a purely dip manicure with the special dip manicure top coat that requires no UV light at all. Even after telling them this they proceeded to put gel top coat on my dip manicure! It was too late and I left knowing I would break out shortly. The next day I called them and told them the situation and asked if I could get them removed. They said they could do a full removal or just remove the top coat & put a different top coat on (I would think the dip specific top coat) so I go with this. I go in the next day and they remove the gel top coat just to put regular top coat on, for regular polish which this is not! I don't have a picture but they looked pretty bad at this point, very dull and scratched up. I went home and redid the polish as you can see in the pics (I'm not an expert don't judge) in hopes to get some shine back. I inevitably had to rip them off a week later because the irritation never stopped. Now I'm left with dry cracked hands for at least a month. If you have a gel allergy and specifically get dip for this reason do not go here. I would love to get my $80 back. I will not be getting my nails done again I am traumatized by this experience.

It was my first time going to this salon and I must say I loved it! I will definitely be returning for another fill.

Lee is absolutely so amazing, sweet and detail oriented when it comes to waxing! I had found this place by last minute and called if they could fit me in for a Brazilian and eyebrow wax. I am so happy I found this hidden gem. This was the best experience and wax I've had in a long time! Very kind, patient, and talented. Definitely if you're looking for your go to waxer I'd highly recommend star nails and ask for Lee peep my eyebrows in the photos look amazing!! Pricing was great too! And the atmosphere is so welcoming and beautiful. Give them a chance !

Everyone is super kind! I've been there about 4 times now alone and with family, every encounter has been amazing. Great prices and quality to go with it !! It's a great community nail shop - they've been up and running for years now.

Super Great Customer Service, Was Very Friendly And Did Exactly What I Wanted And Asked For, Prices Are Super Affordable And They Do Great Work. Highly Recommended Place To Go To For Your Nails.

highly recommend this nail salon! Annie usually takes care of my nails and she does such a good quality job. One time I came in during my 1hr lunch and she got me in and out in like 45mins. and that's with a shellac color change. All the nail technicians take good care of you here. Even my husband tags along for pedi's.

I absolutely love Annie at Star Nails. The service and space is beautiful, clean and very welcoming of all communities. I come for nearly all holidays to get seasonal nail designs from them. highly recommended!!

Shame shame on you for selling me the cheapest lashes ever. It's heartbreaking because I've been coming to you for so many years and you sold me a low quality lash at a premium price. I hope that the money that you took from me was enough to pay the bills for the slow season it's so unfortunate that you treated me this way even after I called to resolve the issue for you didn't help me out. You wanted to charge me $60 more on top of the 140 that I had already paid. Not cool at all. Thanks I got to tear my natural lashes off to which was very painful. Thanks for the bad experience I know we're not to bring my money back.

Annie is the best! She always takes care of me and nails last so long. Highly recommend Star Nails!

Our nails are already the best from here AND our besties that do them are the sweetest

These nails lasted me about a month. My favorite set ever.

Mimosas, red and white wine options! I've actually never left a review before for a single business EVER, but this salon I cannot take for granted, for the level of dedication and care for its customers. I honestly hope to stay living in the area so that I don't have to switch nail salons. They have the spa quality capacity for every kind of occasion (bridal shower, baby shower, etc.) on a group scale, yet they still provide such qualitative, individualized attention that I continue to appreciate. I've been going to them for months now, and I simply will not go anywhere else, because why would I? They are the absolute best. Prove me wrong. read more

I paid $100 for a manicure -- I really did find it beautiful but after only a few days, all the gems fell off. This is a really expensive manicure for everything to fall apart so quickly. They also told me it costs $10 extra for a base under french tip, which I've never seen before in my many years getting manicures. I declined and then as the pedicure continued they encouraged me to do it anyways. I do feel like this place is really... after your money. I was visiting, and live in a major city, which I tend to get cheaper services with better quality. This was good service, the ladies were nice, but I can't believe I spent $155 + $25 tip for a gel pedicure french tip and a gel manicure french tip with diamonds that fell off instantly. read more

Terrible! Such a waste of money. Went to get a full set & walked out with this hot mess! All nails were different lengths and shapes. You can also tell that not enough polish was used. I had the lady fix the shapes and after she kept going shorter and it got worse, I told her I had somewhere to be. So if you look at the pricing a full gel set starts at $35 and up. I was charged $55 for this she said my nails are long! First of all, they are very short, they are all different shapes and lengths, you cut me and this is absurd. I had to leave so after she started arguing, I paid and left. I called later and the man was very rude on the phone and said since he didn't do my nails he can't help me. Then the lady who actually did this shit got On the phone super rude and argumentative. I wouldn't recommend this place at all! Very unprofessional, overcharge people, and shit quality work!

Rude staff with zero social skills and mediocre abilities. I scheduled an appointment with the male manicurist there as he slays some acrylics even though he has the bedside manner of a soap dish. When I came a woman made me wait 15 minutes and told me would be doing my nails instead of the guy who didn't even show up. She didn't paint the top on my nail and when I asked her to go over again she was super rude and called me difficult. 1 week later and the nailS have peeled where she didn't get the top. She charged me $15 extra for shellac that peeled. They do not have a price board and shout out prices as they go. $77 for a fill with shellac? And it's was only $60 for the FULL SET Ombré? Nah. Let's put them out of business, they are disrespectful and don't belong in this neighborhood. read more

Highly, highly recommend this nail salon! The owners are a very sweet couple and I really enjoy chatting with both of them while getting my nails done. They're both so kind and their energy is so refreshing! I've been to and have frequented many nail salons and the wife who owns this shop is one of the best I've had at shaping! She's so detailed oriented with her shaping and she really takes her time to ensure each nail looks good. She did my entire set in the photos I uploaded and I am so happy with the result! The marbling and gold came out so good. This nail salon is definitely a southend gem and weekdays are not busy so you won't have to wait too long!

I'm really happy I took the chance with Wax Sabbath. Not only are they close in proximity, but they also have plenty of easy street parking nearby. I always go on Sunday for the happy hour deal. They also have a frequent flyer deal, so the 10th appointment is free. My esthetician is pleasant to be around, easy to talk to, and does a great job. She's also given me great advice if I ever have an ingrown, too. Very pleased with the overall look, feel, and service here.

I get my Brazilians/bikinis done often since this year with them. Every waxer I've had, makes me feel comfortable. I personally prefer their wax over sugaring elsewhere from experience, but everyone's body is different. The only reason I am giving a 4 stars is due to my visit with them the end of July, one of the girls had a used stick on the floor. She did mention that she was the only one working that evening. Which is hard on her I'm sure -- but the cleanliness that day wasn't the best and seeing that made me feel icky I didn't say anything because I didn't want to give her a hard time. But also my skin was a bit more irritated from getting my wax done by her after that day. So she might have just been a less experienced waxer. Other than that, no complaints thus far with them.

Booking online was super easy; the building is on one of the main streets in downtown Renton. Be sure to have enough time to find street parking nearby and the building is locked so be sure to use the building code box to get access. The studio is so cute, well decorated and well maintained. Karli is wonderful! She's personable, has humor that I can vibe with, & skilled in her work. I noticed a few people mentioned pain and wanted to mention that may vary based on your pain tolerance and the esthetician's experience or ability. Karli is great and I barely experienced anything yet which is also i prefer sugaring over typical waxing :) What I thought was a unique perk as a first time customer was that she offers a free touch-up within a week of being seen (to support minimal growth apparently!).

I only saw more mature yt women getting facials. Not saying they discriminate but just a heads up that this is their clientele because when I purchased the $200 facial certificate thing on Yelp it was to redeem for any facial so I decided to get the glass skin facial. I wish I remembered the lady who did my facial but it didn't really seem like she had the proper training. I believe her name was Diana. She did the rest of the treatment cool but when it came to extractions she used her bare hands and napkins.. and that's when it was a huge no for me. The results afterwards were ok. My face was stinging which I expected but.. it hurt my face was tender. Could be better for the price. The owner saw me and helped her redeem my Yelp coupon but didn't even say, "hey thanks for stopping by" she just punched her code in or whatever and moved on to her next customer. Saying "I've been waiting so long for you to come back" If you have no place else to go and are in dire need of a facial then come here. If not save your coin sis and go to a med spa place where you will be guaranteed proper equipment.

Possible TMI - Almost every single one of the hairs that I need gone are on my face and neck and are coming out of layers of acne scar tissue. They ITCH even before they surface and I can't help scratching my skin open in certain spots. All those spots are finally starting to heal thanks to Christine! One of the worst patches is on my neck right at the hairline. Not only did it have very thick hairs, but it was crowded with an insane amount of hairs so fine I could barely see them but couldn't keep my hands off them. I noticed an improvement right away, and at a faster clip than with other practitioners. She is *extremely* thorough and the process is taking less treatments than I'd anticipated. Full disclosure*: She spends more time than most on each hair and really searches for the follicle, which means a slightly above average pain level. But it's really effective and **a lot** less pain in the long run (not to mention cost effective). *This could be just me since my tissue is so scarred. I also really appreciate how she can fit me into her schedule.

Tri and Lee, the owners of Star Nails, run an exceptional nail studio! Over the past four years, I've been consistently impressed by the level of attention and care I receive during EVERY visit, whether it's a basic pedicure, deluxe pedicure, or acrylic services. Tri's precision and efficiency always leave my nails looking flawless and perfectly shaped! Recently, I ventured into requesting a custom design, and I was blown away by the result--it surpassed even the reference photo I provided! The shimmering effect of the design, resembling pearl marble, is truly remarkable in person. Lee, Tri's co-owner and wife, demonstrates a genuine pride in her work, ensuring that my nails always look their best. I highly recommend Star Nails to anyone seeking top-notch nail care!! They always try their best to make sure you love your nails. That's hard to find. read more

Walked in and immediately loved this salon. This spacious business not only exceeds expectations but goes above and beyond for your comfort. The welcoming staff are friendly and attentive to your every need and even offer drinks while you relax getting a pedicure (which is what my partner and I received). This salon is unlike any salon you will ever visit. The prices are perfect for the quality and walk-ins are welcomed. The amount of effort they give while helping you wind down is immense and they truly care about making sure their customers are satisfied. The waxing services are incredible and affordable. The lady who waxes for you just knows what she is doing, and does super well. Thank you Star Nails, we will be back again soon! read more

Star Nails is a delightful Rainier Beach treat. The big, comfy massage chairs have got your back covered, but should they miss a spot, don't worry- the shoulder massage at the end of your manicure releases any lingering tension. My legs and feet feel like newborn babies after their sea salt scrub-down. One of my feet has higher arches and takes more abuse from normal walking, so the extra attention to my arches during the foot massage was heavenly. My toes got a base coat, bright green China Glaze polish, and a top coat to finish it off. I asked for no polish on my nails, so I could use my Espionage Cosmetics wraps from ECCC, and Hanna instead gave them a stunning buff. I cannot wait for my next visit! read more
