So I've been looking into nails more since I got mine done and here's what I see wrong.
The sidewalls of the tips that were put on are not even close to the actually edges of my natural nail.
The nails are not shaped the same on either hands i.e. I asked for almond and got some weird shapes some of which point off to one or the other side.
The nails are not the same length i.e. pinky finger on right hand is longer by a significant amount then the pinky finger on the left hand.
The acrylic layer on top seems to be all uneven leaving me with strange bumps and heaves and an odd distorted reflection.
Nails aside, here are notes about the service I received.
It was all done with a electrical grinder, gel was taken off with the grinder. Nail was shaped with the grinder. Cuticles and natural nail was ground up some too.
I went in saying my nails were incredibly thin and yet they ground them down enough that the chemical bond aid they put on to help the filler hurt through my nails.
The one file pad they used had clearly been used multiple times before and it wasn't on just me and that doesn't seem very clean.
Let me note however the reason it's a two star rating and not a one star rating is the ladies are very nice people and I enjoyed...
Read moreI was incredibly disappointed by salon del sol over the weekend. I have been coming to them every 4 weeks for over a year. Never had an issue with no showing or cancelling appointments. I had an 11 am appointment Saturday for a pedicure. At about 8am that morning I cut the back of my foot open pretty bad on my back patio door. I called them right away and let them know what happened and that instead of me coming in as scheduled and risking infection for myself or anyone who sat In the chair after me, I wished to reschedule. They have a cancellation policy that states if you do not call for reschedule 24hrs in advance you MAY be charged 100% of your scheduled appointment price. The word “may” implies there should be exceptions, especially something like a physical injury to the part of the body they’d be servicing. They ended up charging me 100% of my appointment. I guess it would have been better to go in and risk infection than to let them know , since I was paying for it anyways. Not a great way to treat loyal customers. * Edit: spoke w/ salon owner who is always very sweet. She was very apologetic and I am very happy with her response to...
Read moreI had a great experience here and I WILL be back!I had an eyebrow waxing with Rylee and she was so personable and attentive. I tried every salon In Blackfoot when it came to my eyebrows and none of those places even compare to Rylees work! I look fabulous and I owe it to her attention to detail and she didn't rush through the appointment. Prices are a little higher than most but that's the reason my eye brows look great now! You get what you pay for and it was well worth the money. They offer so many awesome 'treat yourself' services and I will have to try some out one day! For now, I have found my eyebrow girl and I am so so happy. Also I just want to note how beautiful and clean the salon is! It's a very nice place to relax and enjoy yourself and the...
