The Good Stuff
Russian Manicure
Customers specifically praise the salon’s Russian manicure, including a gelish pedicure that one reviewer said stayed intact for three weeks.
Baby Boomer
A Russian manicure with gel removal, hard gel and baby boomer design was completed in about 70 minutes in one review.
Braids
A reviewer found the knotless boho braids neat, lightweight and not too tight, with soft synthetic hair that looked natural.
Long Wear
Several returning customers mention nails lasting for weeks, including gelish extensions and a set still looking good after two weeks.
Colour Range
One customer highlighted the salon’s broad colour selection and said the service was completed faster than expected without sacrificing quality.
Welcoming Atmosphere
Reviews mention warm reception, regular comfort checks and refreshments during an appointment.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm Design. Bring the reference photo and confirm details, especially base colour on design nails, before the service starts.
Check Tools. Before treatment, check that tools appear disinfected, particularly because one reviewer raised a hygiene concern.
Book Ahead. Message before visiting if you need a particular technician; one reviewer said the salon responds quickly on WhatsApp.
Allow Waiting. Leave some flexibility in your schedule: a regular customer said they sometimes wait, though they did not mind it.
Explain Clearly. If there may be a language gap, use a clear reference image and confirm the shape and finish before work begins.

The Bottom Line
Wide Star Beauty Salon is a Dubai Marina option for nail-focused appointments, with reviews covering manicures, nail art, gelish and hard-gel extensions, pedicures, lashes, brows and hair. The strongest pattern is detailed nail work: customers describe precise shapes, polished finishes and designs that matched their reference or request. Russian manicures and baby boomer designs are especially well represented.
There is useful value detail here too. One customer paid 157 dhs for a proper Russian manicure with gel removal, hard gel and baby boomer design, and was in and out in about 70 minutes. Another praised knotless boho braids for being neat, lightweight and not too tight.
Returning customers also report gelish extensions lasting for weeks, while other reviews mention friendly reception, refreshments and quick WhatsApp replies. The experience is not completely consistent. One recent review raised concerns about apparently undisinfected tools, an untidy salon and four design nails missing their base colour.
Another described an unpleasant response to a straightforward technician-availability question, and a separate customer found communication difficult when a technician did not speak English. Bring a reference image, confirm the design before starting, and check hygiene and technician availability when booking.
