Mystique M.

Everytime I come here they're so welcoming and nice. Went here tonight and decided to get a dip set, I've never got one before so I didn't know what to expect. They came out so cute and she did the perfect shape as I told her I'm in healthcare and can't have them too long or pointy. Definitely will be back for a fill and pedi before my cruise.

Poor filing and damage to my nails
Erika B.

Awful experience. I went in for a gel manicure and told the woman I wanted rounded tips not square. She filed my nails square and I asked her to fix it. She went over and over my nails quite roughly - it was painful as she filed my finger tips too! After the fourth round, I was horrified to see my nails significantly reduced in size and horribly uneven and even jagged on one nail! She filed one section of one nail down so much it will take awhile to grow out! At that point, I stood up and said enough, no more. The other woman apologized and offered to fix it but I said no and left without a manicure. Very disappointing. I do NOT recommend Solar Nails.

Seriously? Polish on my skin

The sloppiest gel manicure. First, somehow he filed off any length I had grown during my previous manicure (somewhere else), I said I wanted to grow my nails long, he didn't seem to understand me. My nails have polish up on my skin, my thumbnail is uneven in shape, all are shorter than I wanted. Really looks like I did it myself. Probably just this one technician (the guy at the far end of the salon, didn't get a name, he didn't speak to me at all). I could give this salon another chance as probably just a bad technician but what kind of salon has someone preforming such terrible manicures? Luckily, it's just nails and $25, not life threatening, just very frustrating. I'll try somewhere else.

Love going here so awesome-relaxing Kelly & David know what I like, want every time. Super poliet kind,& respectful.You Rock
Rebecca B.

There the best. I have an awesome day and time when I go get my nails done. Very kind respectful curtius and caring. Love Kelly and David they know what I like

Fresh nails by Kim - just the way I like them; wide and square.

I've been coming to #1 Solar Nails since they opened. This is a family owned and operated salon. I have tried most of the techs but have learned to request Kim(the owner) or Nina only as I am picky. I do not ever make an appointment as my work schedule is always changing and have never had an Excessive wait (30mins tops) which I feel is more than worth it for such a busy shop. These two ladies are friendly & efficient and do fabulous work-take a look at my photos to see for yourself.

6 weeks later. they gouged my nail out. Right down to nothing. The bump is my real nail. The dent is where she filed it out.

Since moving to New Hampshire 3.5 years ago, the first thing I did was find a nail salon. Boy, was…read moreI glad I found Royal Nails!! Everyone is pleasant, a great selection of nail color and services, and the price is comparable to others. Most places I have visited before this were CASH only, so that was not a big thing for me. I use the same technician I used the first time; they know me by name and even the sound of my voice over the phone. They will even squeeze me in if necessary. YES, you do have to wait sometimes, but that is only because they are often busy!! The service I receive is wonderful and I would recommend them to anyone. and as far as the poor reviews go, I don't know one nail salon that doesn't leave a spot of nail color on the skin. Get over it; it comes right off with an Emory board.

I'm not one to usually make reviews but I had a very disappointing and honestly concerning…read moreexperience at Royal Nails in Tilton (Tanger Outlets). I booked a 2 PM appointment because my usual salon was fully booked, and I needed a new set. When I arrived, everything seemed fine at first, but things quickly went downhill. The technician who worked on me appeared unclean and was coughing and sneezing throughout the appointment without wearing a mask, which made me very uncomfortable. Even more concerning, none of the tools or the station were sanitized before I sat down--there were still visible nail clippings from the previous client. After soaking off my previous set, I was left waiting for 45 minutes to an hour before the technician returned. During the service, they were extremely rough and over-filed my natural nails to the point where they became red and painful. Once the acrylic was applied, I began experiencing a burning and throbbing sensation, and I now have what appears to be a chemical burn on multiple nails. The final result was not what I asked for. While the nails themselves are not terrible, they do not match the reference photo I showed, especially in terms of color and detail. For the price, I expected much closer attention to the design. At the end of the appointment, I was directed to wash my hands using a nail brush that was clearly being reused by multiple clients, with no separation between clean and used brushes. This raised serious hygiene concerns. Overall, this was a very negative experience due to poor hygiene practices, lack of professionalism, and the physical discomfort I am still dealing with. I would not recommend this salon.

Well I'm back to give them a pretty low review. Manicures are fine, staff isn't rude but not…read moreparticularly friendly, either. I stopped going here because they have raised the prices to an absurd amount. $55 for dip manicure (with removal of old dip) and just up the street in Tilton the prices are $10 less. This place also needs a good cleaning, yikes it's dirty there how. Their hours were great, open every day but they need to take one day a week to clean the place. Pretty sure this place won't stay in business when they find out they'll have to pay taxes on the Venmo sales. Always discouraged credit card as payment and asked to pay via Venmo. I'm afraid they will find out the hard way of the laws that have changed for businesses in 2021.

I genuinely have never had a worse manicure experience than this. Fortunately, my mom got a lady…read morewho did very good, but I was stuck with a young man who did absolutely terrible. It seemed like he had never done nails before. I had 3 broken nails (I get dip on my real nails) and he wasn't planning on putting tips on to make all the lengths even until I asked him to. He put a tip that was far too big on my thumb and I asked him to use a smaller size. He messed up 3 times putting it on and kept ripping it off and retrying. The tips are so far off my nails stuff is going to get stuck between them and my real nails the entire time I have these. The dip is extremely lumpy and looks terrible. There is a mess around all my nails on every single finger that I tried to scrub off for quite some time but it is not coming off. I will never be returning here I am genuinely so disappointed in my experience.
