STAR NAILS AND SPA NEWPORT

"Went in today after refusing to go for years, ended up having an awful experience! The entire time with the drill, the lady filed down to my skin. She also ended up filing my SKIN so hard she sliced my finger- this drew blood as well! After I said something she was very rude and gave me an attidude."

"Wish I could give zero stars!! HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE AND WAY OVERPRICED!! Went in for dip powder manicure with tips and the guy I had did an awful job!! It’s an extra $15 to have almond shaped nails which no one told me until after they did the shaping and no base coat for powder done at all! Three of my nails broke within a DAY of getting them done! Worst experience ever and Im never going back again. Employees were extremely rude and constantly on phones. It was a huge waste of $80 and I cannot believe it was $80 for a MANICURE! Save your money and go somewhere else! ANYWHERE ELSE"

"Very good service. We’re traveling for an event we’re attending and needed to find a nail salon. They fit us in within minutes even though they were busy. My wife and I had mani pedis. They came out great. They paid attention to details and had a lot to offer. Great service all around. We’d go again when in the area."

"I wish I could give zero stars. I walked in with a simple request of taking off my dip nails. When I arrived, there were two employees playing on their phones, and it took 20 seconds for me to even be acknowledged. When I was finally greeted by an employee they told me "We don't have time to do that right now". When I could CLEARLY see that they were not busy! I have heard negative things about this salon in the past, and now I see why. I will be taking my business elsewhere."

"I never leave reviews, but I feel strongly enough to take time out of my day. Coming from someone who lives here, this is the worst nail salon in Newport. The location is ideal and it’s a clean salon which is the only reason friends and I have ever gone back in hopes we would have a better experience. I’m sure some people who work here are pleasant, but I have unfortunately only had extremely rude and obnoxious women doing my nails here who rush you out and roll their eyes if you want to sit next to your girlfriend for a manicure. It ruins the whole experience that is supposed to be a treat. Would be one thing if the manicure was spectacular but it’s below average on a good day. Never again. J Nails on Broadway is much better if you’re looking for a good experience with kind people who do a great job."
