Customer Review Summary
Fill-in sets and gel polish services draw the most mentions, with several reviewers praising a fill-in that came out "perfect" and a mani-pedi that gave exactly what was wanted. Close behind, gel dip polish is credited with strengthening natural nails after regular visits, and pedicures paired with gel polish keep some coming back so often they say they wouldn't go anywhere else. Kids are treated gently too, with one reviewer noting a toddler was walked to the bathroom during a nail appointment. But experiences are inconsistent: one reviewer reports a technician was rough, leaving cuts in three places and a burned nail bed, with the acrylic left lumpy and showing fingerprints, calling it a disappointment after the ownership changed. Another describes a daughter's pedicure where the nails were cut down poorly, and a third had gel polish last only a day before returning to have it fixed. Even longtime regulars describe the salon as hit or miss.

“I visit here all the time and I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get my nails and toenails done”

“I’ve only been to solar nails twice since it’s had different owners but Andy has been great both times. The first time he was kind enough to fix a set for me after i had gone to a different salon and the second time he did a fill in for me and it was perfect.💅 …”

“Super disappointed. I used to go here all the time before the ownership change and i will never go back. My mother and i got our nails done with acrylic and gel polish and the man doing my moms was so rough and literally looked at where he messed up on the polish and proceeded to put it in the curing light. the lady that done mine was also rough and cut me in three different places along with burning my nail bed. the nails are lumpy and thick. literally has finger prints in them. these are my wedding nails and my hands hurt from this. i am so incredibly disappointed and will never ever go back.”
