Sophia is an incredible artist and is extremely passionate about what she does, and that enthusiasm really comes across in her work. She will help bring your ideas to life, whether you want to try something completely new or have your usual set done perfectly. She's also very easy to talk to, no matter who you are or how old you are. Her salon has such a lovely, calming atmosphere, you can go in and chat the whole time, or have a quiet appointment if you're having a bad day. I genuinely don't trust anyone more with my nails and will always come back to Sophia every time I need them done.

Fia is sooo talented and does the most amazing art work on the tiniest of canvas's! The nails last and last and the only reason you need to change them is for the nail growth. She is also the kindest person and I love our chats every time I see her. 1000% would recommend her to anyone. 💓

I absolutely adore my nails every time I come here. Sophia creates a calm, caring environment and I love putting the worlds to rights with her getting my nails done or binging Netflix. She's so incredibly talented and listens to exactly what you want. She's brilliant at letting me know the best aftercare and has the best selection of colours. I wouldn't go anywhere else and am completely addicted!

i've attached so many photos because i am honestly just obsessed!!! fia did my nails for Reading festival, which were extensions with pick'n'mix nail art. this as my second time seeing her as she had done my nails around 4 weeks prior for my graduation, which were gel polish with tier 2 nail art. originally, my nails for Reading were also going to be gel polish, however after a few broke, i contacted fia and she was was so understanding and ensured i could still have lovely long nails by doing extensions! this is my first time with extensions and i am obsessed- fia did an incredible job on the design (i sent her a collage and some theme/colour preferences and she went from there) and execution of the nail art. you can really tell that she takes pride in what she does and she always triple checks that you are happy with what she is doing as she does it. the atmosphere of appointments is so relaxing and she really makes you feel welcome and at ease- whether you want to have a chatty appointment, watch something on netflix, or simply sit and enjoy the process, fia is really accommodating. from her pre-appointment communication to the appointment itself, i could not recommend fia enough- she is a superstar! 🌟

The best nail tech! Sophia is a beautiful person inside and out. The salon is lovely and comfy and you truly feel like you can relax, have a chat, watch TV and leave with the most beautiful art on your nails. Sophia is a true artist and listens and looks careful at what you want and any inspo pics or mod boards that you have and is truly able to bring them all to life. Can't wait for my next appointment ✨

Amazing! I have short nails and have always wanted cool designs, Sophia does just that and makes me feel confident. I've had two appointments with her and fully trust the process and her. I go for a gel nail and pick and mix tier to let her full creativity fly as I know whatever she does it will not disappoint. Her studio is super cute and clean. 100% recommend. She is super talented and the chat is always a 10/10!

I've recently started going to Sophia to get my nails done and WOW, she is incredible! Everything about the experience is absolutely wonderful. Her setup is so cute, she's warm and welcoming, her customer service is amazing, and she's incredibly talented. She's also so patient and if you're unsure about what you want, she will offer to try different things out until you're happy with what you want done, she never makes you feel guilty for asking to change or tweak things either. I've never been happy with my nails anywhere else, they always felt rushed, bumpy, too thick, and would ruin my natural nails. Since Sophia started doing Gel X nails for me, I've already seen such a big improvement in the health of my natural nails. I will NEVER go back to acrylics or trust anyone else with my nails ever again! Honestly the most kind hearted woman and her talent with nails in unmatched🩷

She is so gentle with my skin and nails. I always receive the best aftercare too! You can tell she loves what's she does. Her passion shines through. She is so creative and patient. I get so many compliments on my nails it's crazy! I've never left disappointed and always leave feeling absolutely wonderful!

What a delight Fia is! A gorgeous soul who also happens to be endlessly talented. A true nail artist who takes the vaguest or simplest ideas from me and literally creates masterpieces that I stare at for hours! So glad I found you, Fia! 🥰

Sophia isn't just an amazing nail tech, she's honestly such a gem! The whole experience, from chatting during the consultation to seeing her cool studio, is on another level. Her attention to detail is insane, and the nail designs are always spot on. Plus, she's got such a chill vibe that you feel comfortable the minute you walk in. I'm so glad to be going on this nail journey with her-can't recommend her enough!
