Solar Nail & Spa in Elyria, OH

I went here a few days ago for a gel pedicure and dip nails. (Solid colors, no nail art). My normal place usually does this in an hour and 15 minutes. Not at solar nails. I was there for 3 hours. My total was $125 and some change for BELOW AVERAGE WORK. First off: I had gel on my toes when I came in and expected of course for a soak off. NOPE. This girl takes out the "gel remover polish" that you get at Sally's (I own the stuff and it does NOT work) and puts it on my nails, leaves, comes back and SCRAPES THE HECK out of my toes with me saying "ow, ouch, ow" and she doesn't bat an eye. She repeats this process 3-4 times. The pedicure took 2 hours and it was NOT relaxing. When she was done I still had hangnails and excess skin around the top of my toenails. Not to mention the girl was high out of her mind. She was on another planet. Kept getting up to go vape in the back, I smelled it every time she returned to my chair. I am giving 2 stars because the dip nails weren't the worst I've ever had and she was much quicker with that part. They gave me a free bottle of lotion which was a nice touch but I will absolutely not return. Not for that price and that amount of time it takes.

BEWARE: The owner makes up prices for pedicures and gel manicures as she sees fit. She had the nerve to charge me tax. She charged us an absurd amount for our services. This was my second time coming here and I got ripped off. My daughter asked for longer nails and the owner said no it's better short. She did not listen to our needs and LIED WHEN I ASKED WHY SHE CHANGED HER PRICES. She kept adding up the total and each time she it was different. I will not be going back. Very Disappointed ZERO STARS YOU LOST A GOOD CUSTOMER

So I have been to this salon a few times, and the times I have been here I have gotten gel nails. Every time I had went to go get my nails done the gel was absolutely beautiful. But the acrylic nails were absolutely horrible, they got gel and acrylic all over my fingers and didn't even cover the full nail with the gel polish! I really liked them because from a far sight they were Stunning! The acrylic was super thin. The next day I went to school and was writing an essay the nail on my thumb popped off! I do not recommend anybody to ever go there!!!

My nails look absolutely horrible. It looked like I had my nails on for a week already. My nails also looked lumpy my pinky nail was on crooked and sticking up. The sides oh my nails didn't get filled they didn't clean under my nails so they had acrylic stuck. I got a matte gel polish you could see the brush strokes. I went in the next to to get them fixed and they still look horrIble. I paid 80 bucks total for this and my 6 year old to get her nails painted.

I use to think this place was great not so much any more. The girls there really don't care and rush. I went in when they first opened just so I didn't have to rush but they still did. I ask for the ultimate pedicure and manicure when I got there and repeated myself to make sure the girl that was doing it was told. Well I didn't get it and I overheard them talking about another person who set an appointment that wanted to get the same thing that they wasn't going to give her an option to get that. So basically the same thing they did to me. My pedicure was the worst I've ever had. And I did like my nails I just got the gel polish but now its only been a week and they are literally just peeling off. Needless to say I will never go again. I paid all that money for nothing!
