Fab salon - really attentive, and patient. I never feel rushed. I only ever have gel colour but it's done with love and care! They fit people in without an issue too. Recommend highly!

I had such a lovely experience at Modern Nails and Beauty! They were so accommodating and managed to fit my sisters and me in together so we could all get our nails done at the same time, which made it extra special. I had a French tip with BIAB, and it turned out beautifully - really neat and elegant. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, which made the whole visit even better. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for great nails and excellent service!

Highly recommend this salon! I am American living in London for 6 months and I get their version of hard gel done monthly- the biab. Not only are they super friendly and welcoming but they do an amazing job on your nails. They take their time and make sure you like them as they go. I've had a few different people do my nails and every one did a perfect job. Thank you so much!!!!

Cannot recommend enough! The Modern Nails folks did an incredible job with our small nail art designs, and gave me the best set of acrylics I've ever had. The application was perfect and they're still going strong three weeks later. They are friendly, helpful, and super skilled.

Super super happy! I've been trying to find a good nail place for a while and I've finally found one. I was asked multiple times if I was happy with the shape, colour, length which I loved. Very attentive staff and made sure I was taken care of! I even had the colour recommended to me by my lovely nail technician and she absolutely smashed it. Thank you so much!! :)

This is my go-to place for nails. I am always happy with the service whenever I visit them. I don't live near the salon and have to travel a bit to get my nails done but the service and the result of my beautiful nails make it all worthwhile. All the staffs are extremely polite, kind and professional. Lisa - the manager is always lovely and cheerful. Overall, I couldn't recommend this salon enough for their quality and service.
