After a few days of hard work and noticing my heels getting dry, I decided to treat myself to a pedicure - and I'm so glad I did! The experience at Cabella Nails was amazing. Emma was absolutely fantastic - so gentle and thorough that I was literally drifting off. It was exactly what I needed, and I'll definitely be doing it again. Highly recommend!

Currently training with Emma. Started with manicure and 4 day acrylic course. Very professional and kind. Emma explains things in a way that is easy to understand, both theory and practical. Very patient and encourages me to do my best. Really enjoying it!! Can't wait to start my new venture!

Emma is an excellent Nail Tech and teacher. I started my training with her and I can't recommend her enough! She supported me throughout the course and after, even now if I needed help I know she'd be more than happy to help. She explains and show you how to do everything thoroughly and properly. I've now been doing nails 2&1/2 years and can't thank her enough for believing in me and giving me the confidence I needed. Xxx
