Absolutely LOVE Maria's attention to detail and complete collaborative approach to making sure I was happy with the final result. I had acrylics, nail art and a pedicure. At no stage did I feel like I had to be rushed with any decision. I can't wait to go back, and delighted to have found her! I highly recommend. I'd give 10 stars if I could. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had BIAB with gel polish done from another salon which I didn't like, so Maria very kindly removed the top layer of my gel and repainted them for me! She has amazing attention to detail and is super professional, kind and has a beautiful clean salon! Thank you Maria 💗

This was BY FAR the best manicure I've ever had in my life. Maria was incredibly meticulous and kind. Her space was adorable and all the tools she used were very clean and properly sanitized. She is amazing! I will absolutely be going back to her on a regular basis!!

Maria is amazing and the luxury gel manicure service she offers is very high level and the products she uses are high end. She doesn't offer just a normal gel polish manicure but a mini spa experience for nails. Highly recommended. My nails and hands were a disaster but she did a miracle and are now soft, hydrated and no cuticles and dry dead skin! Thanks Maria!

I just passed by her salon and got spontaneously an appointment to get my nails done. Apart from being very warm and lovely, Maria is very professional. I would trust her with my nails 100%. Her Studio is very clean and cosy. She took a lot of time for me and we talked the whole 1,5 hours through. It felt like being at an old friend's place. This is not just a nail salon - this is a nail spa. Thank you again Maria! It was so lovely to meet you. I would come any time again.
