    So happy with my nails today at this new nail salon. Staff are so welcoming and friendly, the salon is tidy and clean, I had a great experience there, they offered complimentary drinks which I thought was great as not many nail salons offer that. Great at what they do so happy this place has come to Cowes, this will be my new nail salon to go to now! Thanks so much First Nails. Wishing you every bit of luck in your new business in Cowes.

    I had a pedicure at First Nails and I couldn't recommend them more. They were so accommodating even though I did not prebook an appointment. I was super happy with the service and was made to feel really comfortable during my time in the salon, I will definitely be returning. Thank you so much!

    Treated myself to my birthday nails today, and I couldn't have chosen a better salon to go to! Absolutely lovely ladies and over the moon with my nails. Must try if you're looking for a new salon to try or (being right by the jet) if you're wanting a quick mani/pedi whilst waiting for the boat! Highly recommend!
