The Good Stuff
Keratin results
A keratin treatment review reported hair that felt smooth, soft, shiny and frizz-free after the service.
Facial care
Facials are praised for personalised attention, while one facial-and-massage visit focused on pressure points and relaxation.
Nail value
Some customers describe the nail work as high quality and affordable, with particularly good retention.
Family friendly
One regular says the salon helps entertain their baby during appointments, making combined hair and nail visits easier.
Welcoming setting
Reviews describe a friendly, relaxing atmosphere, with one first-time visitor noting transparent product information and affordable pricing.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm fees. Ask for a written total before booking, including acrylic removal; one customer used WhatsApp but still faced an unlisted charge.
Check retention. For gel, hard manicure or extensions, ask how long the result should last and what happens if nails break early.
Book consultation. For keratin work, request a consultation first so the treatment plan and expected result are discussed before starting.
Plan with children. If bringing a child, mention it while booking; a customer says the team helped entertain their baby during services.
Clarify curing. If booking gel polish, ask about curing and aftercare, since one complaint attributed early breakage to polish not curing properly.

Popular Mentions
Highlights
Customers mention highlights when they want a specific colour result and a finished look they are happy with.
Gel manicure
Gel manicures appear in reviews as part of quick combined visits with hair services.
Pedicure
Pedicures are mentioned alongside hair treatments, with first-time customers enjoying the combination.
Acrylic nails
Acrylic nails are a frequently discussed service, but reviews are mixed and include reports of early lifting and lost extensions.
Common Concerns
Nail breakage
Nail durability is uneven: one customer reported several fingernails and toenails breaking again just two days after a repeat visit.
Acrylic failures
Another customer said acrylic nails came off after three days, with two replacement extensions lost within a week.
Unexpected fee
A customer reported an additional acrylic-removal charge that was not included in the price breakdown given before the appointment.
Hygiene concern
One complaint mentioned insects at the salon alongside dissatisfaction with how the complaint was handled.
Pricing concern
A customer felt a 100 charge for a very brief trim was unreasonable, despite asking for the price beforehand.

These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

“However, when it came time to pay, I was suddenly told I had to pay an additional 70 AED for acrylic removal—something that was never mentioned in advance and had never been charged to me before”Google review · May 2026

The Bottom Line
Mad Lillies Salon is a Motor City hair-and-beauty stop where customers book haircuts, colour, highlights and keratin treatments alongside manicures, pedicures and facials. The clearest strength is hair work: several long-term reviewers describe careful consultations, accurate cuts and colour, and keratin results that left hair smooth, shiny and frizz-free. Facials also receive specific praise for personalised attention and relaxation.
Nails can be convenient for a combined visit, and some customers call the work affordable with excellent retention. The atmosphere is generally described as friendly and relaxing; one regular says the team even helps entertain a baby during appointments, useful context for parents. There is a real caveat with nail durability.
Reviews report acrylics coming off after three days, extensions lost within a week, and multiple manicure and pedicure nails breaking after a repeat visit. Pricing communication deserves equal care: one customer was quoted a total in advance but later faced an additional 70 AED acrylic-removal charge, while another objected to paying 100 for a very brief trim. Confirm the full written price before booking, ask about removal fees and nail-retention expectations, and request a consultation for chemical treatments.
