About Five Star Nails
Five Star Nails books its work by appointment from King's Walk in Nottingham, running Monday to Saturday and closing on Sundays. Acrylic sets form the core of the service list, covering full gel acrylic sets, ombré and French pink. Existing sets can be soaked off and re-done rather than only replaced with something new, so a set that has grown out has a route back. The team works from the design a customer brings in, including current nail art trends. Short-notice slots can sometimes be arranged at the start or the end of the day, which helps if your week is unpredictable. Payment is cash only, with no cards taken, so plan to bring notes to your appointment.

“I came here right as they opened and they fit me in straight away. I got ombré acrylic nails and they did an amazing job. The nail technician paid excellent attention to detail so my nails came out exactly as I wanted. They offer student discount and a loyalty program too. Thank you !”
- Nicole Wignall
“My new favourite go to! Such friendly people and 5 star service. They fit me in today right near closing for gel toes and a full set gel acrylic which I really appreciated. I like a French pink and they created a really classy look I love them. It’s my second visit and they’ve been perfect each time. Really accommodating, lovely to talk to and very quick without compromising on quality. They’re right near corner house so parking in trinity square is easy as. I’ll be back again and again 💅 Highly recommended”

Customer Review Summary
Long lasting acrylics are what brings reviewers back, with several describing sets that hold up for weeks and match exactly the design they had in mind. Ombré acrylics draw specific praise for attention to detail, and a French pink full set with gel toes is described as a classy look. Close behind is how readily the salon fits people in, one reviewer arriving right at opening and another accommodated near closing time. Regulars of several years say the technicians keep up with trends, and one mentions a student discount and loyalty scheme. Reviewers repeatedly call the staff lovely and welcoming, and several say they recommend the place to friends. The one sour note comes from other customers rather than the salon: one regular describes waiting a long stretch while another customer became abusive toward a technician, then leaving with her natural nails in good condition after a full soak off and redo.
