UnRuly Salon and Spa will unveil a new salon space Feb. 1 for additional services next door to the existing salon, 725 Broadway in downtown Lorain.
The new space will feature equipment for nail services such as manicures and pedicures in a redecorated area with a historic touch, according to Elizabeth “Liz” Yelnic, co-owner of UnRuly Salon and Spa.
“We’ve always wanted to expand,” said Yelnic, who co-owns the salon alongside her mother, Nancy Bruce. “We just love everything beauty when it comes to hair, makeup, nails, skin, and we knew that we wanted to have services in all of those aspects.”

The nail salon area features exposed brick and industrial-like features which add to its character, and is decorated with plants and colorful elements.
The space also features a selection of pedicure chairs and nail stations, where Yelnic said she and Bruce soon will start offering nail services.
Though taking applications for dedicated nail technicians, a selection of stylists at UnRuly also have expressed interest in expanding their own services and talents to nail services.
“We already had an idea of what we wanted to do — we want to start off in phases,” Yelnic said. “I would like to venture into other nail services, maybe Polygel or Gel x, but I am ready to hire nail techs that this is specifically what they do.”
Nail services will start simple with natural nail manicures and pedicures, with manicure services including builder gel, which is a softer version of acrylic that still hardens.
Yelnic said she hopes to offer processing nail services as well for customers to receive a pedicure or manicure while their hair is processing, which sometimes can take 45 minutes to an hour.
“I like that our clients can use us as a one-stop shop,” she said. “They can get everything done while they’re here.”
According to Yelnic, she and Bruce opened UnRuly across the street from its existing location on Broadway six years ago with many dreams and aspirations for how they wanted the business to turn out.
Bruce said it has been very rewarding to serve the community in which she and Yelnic are from.
Many clients from outside of Lorain, from as far as Stow, were introduced to the community and its businesses by routinely supporting UnRuly and learning from Yelnic, Bruce and other stylists.
“We wanted to give back to the community and we’re loving the idea that Broadway is growing, so we’re trying to give back to those that live here,” Bruce said. “We want to do the best that we can for the community that we live in.
“I love the fact that we can give them something more high end.”
Plans for the space moving forward are to continue with decorating and preparing the space for clients, and introducing them to high quality products used in services, according to Yelnic and Bruce.

Unruly is accepting applications for trained nail technicians who are passionate about their work, Yelnic said.
“We constantly would say one day we’re going to have stylists, one day we’re going to have our clients coming in,” she said. “We would always talk about all the people that were going to be in here when we’d walk in, and it’s just really nice to see that grow.”
