Quick info
About Solar Nails & Spa
On Pocatello Creek Rd in Pocatello, Solar Nails & Spa is a nail salon offering fills, color changes, manicures, and pedicures on a walk-in basis. The dip powder selection runs over 200 colors, giving a wide range for a color change or a full set. Pedicures address calluses, corns, and foot pain from standing for long periods. Cuticle work is sometimes skipped before polish or dip is applied, and more than one technician may work on the same set of nails at once. The salon opens daily, and appointments can run behind schedule at busier times.

Customer Review Summary
Pedicures draw the most consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly describing relief for tired, sore feet and calling the attention to detail during foot care a highlight worth returning monthly for. Close behind, several regulars single out long stiletto acrylics and complex nail designs, along with the wide selection of dip powder colors, and describe the atmosphere as relaxing with good conversation. Staff are called nice or sweet across nearly every review, even negative ones. The recurring caveat involves inconsistent manicure quality: reviewers describe uneven or unprofessional natural-nail work, missing cuticle care that they warn will cause lifting, and one visit where two techs worked on the same set simultaneously, leaving the skin around the nails irritated and bleeding with no oil or lotion offered afterward. One diner also felt the final charge didn't match posted pricing. Another notes a scheduled appointment ran an hour behind. Despite these complaints, several longtime clients say they return specifically for the same pedicurist each month.

“I love Solar Nails & Spa! June always takes extra special care of me during my pedicures. It is such a treat after working on my feet all day. Highly recommend!”

“I'm on my feet 10 hours a day. I get corns, calluses and planters warts. My feet are in pain all the time. Not after seeing Alana at solar nails. She works miracles on even the most tired feet. I'm so glad she was my first pedicurist because I dont think anyone would care as much or put as much attention to detail as she does. So Amazing! Like I went to a Christian revival and was healed!! Thank you so much Alana, I'll see you next month!!!”

“Very kind people but the prices are very deceiving and questionable for the quality. I got charged $254 for my visit today with my sister in law but if the prices were what they were “posted” as it shouldn’t have been that much. They also …”
