Nail Star is a small, locally owned nail salon at 5436 Apex Peakway in Apex, North Carolina. The menu covers hand and foot care, acrylic and builder gel sets, dipping powder, Gel X extensions, nail art enhancements, services for children and waxing. Clients can book through the booking link on the website, and the salon is open Monday through Thursday from 10 AM to 7 PM, Friday from 9 AM to 7 PM and Saturday from 9 AM to 6 PM.
Manicures start with a classic option that includes trimming and shaping, cuticle care, massage and regular polish. A gel manicure adds a hot towel and gel polish, and a builder gel manicure is offered as a structured option. Pedicures begin with a foot soak, cuticle care, exfoliation, massage and polish. The Detoxifying and Jelly Ultimate pedicures add a paraffin treatment, and gel polish can be added to each pedicure for an additional fee.
For length and sculpted nails, acrylic sets are thicker and suit longer lengths, and they come off with an acetone soak. Builder gel does not come off with acetone and suits overlays on natural nails or medium extensions. Gel X extensions are also offered, and dipping powder comes in a natural nail version, a tip-on version and a French style. Nail enhancements include French, deep French, ombre, cat eyes, chrome, crystals, charms and gold foil, and designs can be added to a few nails or a full set.
Drinks are complimentary when available, with soft drinks, wine and mimosas, plus coffee, tea and water. The salon describes itself as focused on comfort, care and attention to detail, and says it keeps up with current nail trends, styles and techniques.
