    Lou does the most beautiful work on my nail extensions and I always come away from an appointment feeling better than I did going in. When I first met Lou she didn't make a fuss about my clubbed thumb (which has often lead to other salons turning me away) and just went with the flow of making sure I had a nail on it that lasted so much longer than previous manicures ever had. I originally went to Lou to treat myself before a wedding, and as I've had with previous nail techs I thought I would be a one and done job, but with her amazing work and hours of chat and laughter as she does my nails, Lou has fully converted me to a nail girlie. I genuinely look forward to seeing her every month for a good natter and a beautiful new set of nails.

    Lou is always so friendly and welcoming. She does an amazing job with my nails and has converted me to using BIAB which has really helped my natural nails grow and feel better. I couldn't recommend her enough!

    Louise did a beautiful set of polydip nail extensions. I had so many compliments from friends & family about how pretty my nails were! Such a lovely and friendly woman, she made me feel super comfortable and I had a wonderful experience!
