When I found Zara, my nails were in a state after having an allergic reaction to a gel brand. She took great care of my nail journey, and I've seen such a change in the health and growth of my nails! Great service and lovely to talk to

Zara always does an amazing job. Very professional, organised and i would say a perfectionist. Her nail art is all freehand, and my nails always looks fabulous. Extremely reasonable prices for both manicure and pedicure services.

I found Zara through a friend's recommendation and so pleased I did. Loving gel rather than acrylic and her nail art is spot on, today I asked her for foxes and she has done the cutest design! A really lovely lady who does exactly what you ask x

Probably the client with the biggest bad habits here! Nails always last 2-3 weeks. Broken nails repaired and looking lovely 3 so far repaired and grown out. Currently sporting some bridesmaids design and the bride is obsessed with my nails. Always love popping over and its always a laugh to see zara, the perfect chill out in a busy life!
