I was looking for a relaxing mani and pedi and boy was I in for a treat! There was relaxing Christmas music with tv screen displaying the most beautiful sites located in Greece. Julia quickly invited me to sit in the comfortable chair and showed me the menu. I selected the pedicure package 2 that consisted of callus removal, sea salt, fresh orange and a 5 minute massage with hot stones. There are so many options to choose from. Honestly, Julia was so good,really scrubbed and treated my feet like royalty. As for my mani, Ivy was super fast and did a wonderful job. The pedi was definitely my favorite I gotta take my favorite girls to experience the pampered feet session read more

I used to love coming here because they did a great job on my nails and my feet but lately I've been coming and when they do the pedicure, it says they're supposed to use oranges with sea salt to scrub on your legs and stuff and hot rocks with a hot towel and lately they haven't been doing it. I'm not coming back. This is the second time this has happened. The vibe in here is usually pretty nice. They play good music and stuff but I'm not coming back here because I have to pay full price for a pedicure that says they're gonna do all these things and they don't do them. So sad I have to find a new salon after coming for years. read more

Even though this place does amazing pedicures I wasn't pleased with my nail experience. I originally asked for a clear acrylic to have a see through effect with chrome French but had to settle for a natural almond shape nails. Don't get me wrong staff was great to express they didn't have the material to provide what I was asking for but I would've settled with a gel silver French tip. I recommend if you only want a solid color this is your place for nails but if you're looking for something particular make sure to communicate before you get towards the end and start reconsidering a second nail look. The service jumping from pedicure to manicurist does have a waiting time to be serviced but they do provide you a drink as you wait. I will definitely continue to get pedicures here. read more

I am filing a formal complaint against Solar Nails regarding a serious injury I sustained during a service on 11/12/25. I visited the salon to receive a pedicure and a full set. During my pedicure, the technician--identified as "Bob"--began removing calluses from my feet using a cheese grater-style tool. Initially, this was not an issue, but he continued using the tool while distracted and looking away. As a result, he sliced the entire side of my big toe, removing a significant portion of skin. The wound bled heavily for over 20 minutes. Despite this, the technician attempted to have me place my injured toe back into the same pedicure water, which was clearly contaminated. I refused due to the risk of infection. The staff then applied multiple bandages, which had to be replaced several times because I continued to bleed through them. Without my consent, they later applied liquid bandage to the open wound, causing extreme pain. Following the incident, they attempted to offer a free pedicure as compensation, seemingly to discourage me from filing a complaint. This experience was traumatic and completely unacceptable. The staff demonstrated a lack of proper training and basic hygiene protocols, resulting in a severe and preventable injury. read more

AWFUL EXPERIENCE, DO NOT COME. The customer service was awful, will never go back. I went in to have my current nails removed, so I can get them painted by a new nail tech I was in contact with. The first red flag was how rough the tech was with my nails, they are literally bleeding after they were finished. I told Them that from the beginning, however after they were finished 3 of them decided to gang up and scream at me becuase I didn't come in to have them painted only removed after I had already told them that. Absolutely awful experience and awful customer service. If I could give them 0 I would. read more

I called asking for an appointment, they said come in. I went in for a full set myself and a pedi for my daughter. The lady in the front who seems to be the owner cut me twice. She was too busy trying to take the walk ins and to charge the clients that were done. She kept leaving me sitting there. I paid 75$ for short nails and 35 for my daughter's toes. My nails were sloppy. I asked for a thin white French tip. It's thick as hell. My bill came to 105 I gave here 115 so the tip would be 3 and 3 wich they still didn't deserve. She returned me 2$. I don't recomen it. They didn't cut my daughter's toes and when I asked they looked frustrated. read more

Went in to get my eyebrow & lip done and she barley used any wax. Afterwards I asked her to get the hairs that she clearly missed and she refused. This isn't my 1st time having a bad experience here but I like the shop so I gave them another chance . Unfortunately I'll have to find somewhere new. You'd think if that see you continue to come they'd appreciate your loyalty to them but they don't care. read more

This is the worst manicure/pedicure I have ever had gotten. Like ever... aside from rushing the service is was sloppy. I don't know how they dare to up charger you for anything. DO NOT COME HERE FOR ANYTHING! $73 for a poorly done gel mani and regular pedicure. No freaking way. I asked for my natural nails to only be filed down and this man cuts them and tries to tell me it's better for my nail. He also tried to leave them pointy corners. I'm so saddened that I didn't decline or stopped him from continuing the service. Again... DONT COME HERE AT ALL! BAD PLACE! read more

0/5 stars if i could. awful. i came in for a soak off and left in tears. i was asked why only a soak off, to which i replied because im trying a new tech and wanted to have a fresh base. The man doing my soak off started drilling harder when i had asked him not to drill at my natural nail hard. the lady next to him chimed in and started going off on me. scoffing, rolling her eyes, commenting. they're the ones who asked first of all, and second it doesn't matter what i choose to do i am still paying them for the service regardless?? they're getting my money over anyone else?? i got up after, the guy who did my soak off was extremely rude, got up and walked away immediately after he put the drill down. when i was done, i was talking to another customer in there and the front desk lady swarmed me and started going off on me. calling me a bad girl over and over. looking angrily at me. right next to me she was up on me going off, not screaming but she was passive aggressive telling i was not welcome and to not come back. i felt unsafe with three of their workers ganging up on me. I had said it's my choice what i decide to do with my money. and i was still paying them and choosing to pay them for that service. no matter what they were getting paid so im confused. my nail tech doesn't ever go off on me for getting my toes done elsewhere. i felt unsafe, and honestly isolated in that place. everyone involved was extremely unprofessional. i have never experienced that before. the lady kept calling me a bad girl over and over and shaming me. i have gone here for years with my family, for toes mainly but still. to have no respect for their own company to start an argument with a paying customer is beyond me. listen to the reviews. awful company and awful rude employees. they don't care if they get business or not. the way they treat their customers is disgusting. never going here again. read more

The gentleman that did my pedicure did fine. Although I had requested for a gel full set that gentleman that did, did not know what he was doing. Before he even applied acrylic I specified I wanted almond shape nail and they are all round. Also two of the nails are crooked and he said once I apply acrylic and shape them it will be fixed and even after I mentioned it was crooked and he said it's your finger that is doing that. I did say I have had nails before and never had this problem. He made the acrylic to watery and kept caking it on. The bottom of nails had thick layers that he had to drill it away after it was done. And i requested French tip with one thick line and then a smaller line below and he said I don't think I can do that but I can try. But at the end he didn't do it because he couldn't do it. My nails are ugly he kept saying to trust the process. I hate that the photo don't show you had bad they look. Very uneven and oddly shaped read more

Ivy is an artist! She does such an amazing job. She is so polite and patient with me when I come in without an idea of what I want. She always has pictures for me to choose from or let's me bring in my own for reference. I always get almond acrylics, and I'm never disappointed. Book with Ivy, and you won't be either! She deserves way more than 5 stars. read more

Solar Nails And Spa - Disappointment.. - Nail Salons Near Me - Bakersfield, California

If I could give zero stars I would! I've given this business a chance time and time again. I went in to get my acrylic overlay taken off and the guy used the acrylic nail to take off my nails. I feel him cut into my nail bed but I ignore it because maybe it's just the pressure of my acrylics being taken off. Finally the nail comes off and my real nail is cut in half through the nail bed because he sliced it. Then he proceeds to use the cuticle cutter to cut my nail even more making it extremely sensitive!!! He tried charging me full price ($20) after ruining my nails. I ask for a discount and he says $17. Are you kidding me?! Never come here again unless you want a quick pedicure where they don't take their time to get the junk from your toes or if you want half your nail bed sliced into! Just don't do it read more

My friend went and got her nails done. 230$ for a mani pedi with gel? The man and woman there kept cutting into her cuticles and damaging her nails. I went a different time with my sister. After cutting my feet. She charged me 80$ dollars for a basic pedicure no gel. As we were leaving she forced my little sister to post a 5 star review of this place. Never will we ever go again. I don't know what the hell is up with this place, but ladies please don't go here. Save your time and money. read more
