Solar Nails

This will be my first and last visit. They lied about the prices and polish used, used dirty instruments, and an overall crappy experience.
I had two coupons for $ 29 for a manicure and pedicure, one for me and one for my teen. We went in and were told to pick our color from the wall the woman pointed to. Despite two women just sitting around, I was placed with an old guy waiting for me and a teenage boy for my daughter. Both of us were uncomfortable but we went with it anyway.
For the most part, the old guy pushed and pulled my feet and hands although he was able to speak very good english. The old guy dropped instruments on the ground and just looked at me as he picked them up and continued to use them. He also failed to put a base coat on and forgot to put my flip-​flops on before he started painting my toes. A woman next to me had a pretty color polish that was supposed to stay on ten days, so I asked if I could use that color on my fingernails. She said I could and the old guy told me that it was an extra $ 3 to use the polish that would stay on longer. He then said my daughter’s polish is also another $ 3 too because it is a longer-​stay polish. I told him she had taken from the wall the woman told us to pick our colors from. He still said it was another $ 3 for her polish. (He totally ripped us off as my daughter’s polish didn’t even last three days before the color began to chip and peel off of her toenails and fingernails.) He was pushing me into paying before he would paint my fingernails. Instead of seating me at the wide open nail station, he made me sit, uncomfortably, on my side while he stood in between the tiny space between the chairs to give me the manicure on both hands pulling my arm rather hard so he could reach my right arm across my body. He also turned my vibrating chair on which, if I had wanted it on, I would have turned it on. I don’t need to be bullied or cheated when I am supposed to be getting a relaxing treat.
At least the teenager helping my daughter was following all of the usual steps in a mani/​pedi. However, her fingernail polish was streaky. I wanted him to fix it but she just wanted to leave this bad experience. I wish I would not have tipped the old guy and instead just tipped the teenager.
To top it off, I think the people working there gave us a cold. One of the women and her two kids which were sitting in the empty chairs near us, were all sneezing a lot and none of them covered their sneezes. Only the youngest (daughter) had the good sense to actually blow her nose and then wash her hands.

Dee (owner) is fabulous. Very sweet, attentive, and professional. Regular customers are treated like family and my nails always come out exactly as I asked. Highly recommend.

I called to make an appointment for my wife — I was having trouble understanding the person who answered the phone so I asked to speak with the manager or owner and the lady said «no manager here» then she hung up on me! I guess they don’t need my business…

Great service, great place! Love how every time I come in, the same people are there and remember what I like. Clean facility, never had a problem. Always referring people to give them a try. Their deluxe mani pedi’s are the best and always with the latest products.

I went in today to have my nails done.
The kid, and I mean kid, asked if I wanted them trimmed. I said «yes to even them out so they aren’t jagged» at which point he decides to cut my nail off all the way to the nail bed. When I told him «not that short, stop» he didn’t listen.
My nail are ruined. They won’t grow back in the week before my sister’s wedding (I’m the maid of honor). He didn’t even make them even either, they are at angles which I will have to redo myself seeing as the lady we talked to there about this did NOTHING to remedy the situation.
I’m so embarrassed over the state of my fingers now I just want to cry.
TLDR;
They fucked my nails up, did nothing to fix it, still charged me $ 41.

You can feel comfortable getting Mani/pedi’s here. They always do a great job. I typically get shellac in my nails and it stays on for 2.5−3 weeks and still looks great!

As a man, I gotta say that I really like this place. This is the only «nail salon» I have ever actually had work done at, so i have nothing to compare it to, but I like it.
All of the employees are Asian, but they are good with English. They are very friendly there and I find the pricing to be fair. The seating is comfy. If you come at a high volume time, there may be a short wait, but thats fine because that means you will not feel rushed when they are working on you.
I have gotten the deluxe pedicure and the manicure here. They do a very good job and you do not feel uncomfortable being there as a man.
I only go a couple times a year, being a guy and all. But honestly, i would like to find the time to go much more often.
Guys, if anyone has ever complained about your rough ass feet, get your butt in here. They will hook it up. Ohh, and ladies… some of y’all could take much better care of your feet and toes too. Come in here and get your heels sanded down. LOL

Looking at the reviews, I feel like I have gone to a completely different salon. I haven’t been happy the past two times. I have not been happy either time, and I expressed my disappointment to the techs, and they were snippy, rude, sarcastic, and they argued. I accidentally messed up one finger on the shellac when I was putting it in the UV light and the lady got mad and complained because I should have «messed up earlier because it’s less work for her». Sorry.
I could tell they were talking about me and my friend from the second we walked in. They would talk in Vietnamese and then all stare.
I am NEVER going back, no amount of coupons or anything could make me. The low prices aren’t worth the hassle. I feel bad for the owner, as she seems very nice but she clearly doesn’t see how the techs act when she’s not around.

Went to get a pedicure for the first time at this nail salon. They were very courteous on the phone and I was able to get in same day. Ken did a fabulous job and gave the best massage with my beautiful pedicure! Another nail tech even made me some green tea. Everyone was so great and this will be my nail place in Colorado! I heard they do great brow waxing too which I will have done next week!

Went to get a gel manicure with my friend who just got engaged. They didn’t do a terrible job I just wasn’t pleased one of my nails is lumpy from the polish applied. The prices were a little too high for the quality of work.

Owner very friendly. The rest of the experience was not good. Honestly the worst mani/​pedi I’ve ever had. Very weak. I had to ask the nail tec to come back and remove polish on my skin around my nails and she looked less than happy to do so. It’s old and not very clean looking. I won’t be returning unfortunately. The kids chairs are nice to look at. But that’s about it.

Not only did I enjoyed my time, got a great set of nails by Kelly, but they even have a Christmas tree right now where u can win free spa services on your next trip by just getting your self pampered to begin with. I’ll definitely be going back and sharing my experience with others. Thanks Kelly

Friendly and «family» feeling here. Enjoyed my pedicure and manicure here immensely. Also had my eyebrows waxed! Thank you ladies!

This location just made some upgrades like new chairs and waterfalls. That wasn’t really needed though because these folks always rock my pedicures. I have cheated on them for a great deal and was always upset with myself that I did.
Polish stays on longer than anywhere else. Ingrown toe nails, no problem. These ladies know their stuff. I won’t stray again.

Nice place. Good value. However, language can be a troublesome barrier at busy times, as can quality. Quality can vary among the different manicurists. If you have a favorite, always request that individual when making an appointment or you may be sorely disappointed.
Sunday afternoons are particularly busy. Little things seem to slip by, like different numbers of coats of shellac, forgetting the top coat on some fingers. While they seem to be genuine about remedying the situation, who has time to go back?
Solar Nail seems to be clean, although on my last visit, the foam toe spacer I was wearing was promptly removed and replaced in the «clean» drawer which makes me curious about overall sanitary practices. Could be a onetime mistake.
Again, a very nice place with a delightful staff. Bottom line: the speed of service can be a crap shoot when it comes to consistency.

The girls at solar nails are the very best talented Dee the owner always greets with a friendly smile. My partner and I have been coming here for years convieniently located next to the liquor store you can stop and grab a mini chardonnay relax and let the parrafin wax set up and relax… Thanks Dee, Lee and all the gals that work hard see you again in two weeks
