Been having my nails done here for years now. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Both Anna and Phillipa are always happy and they make you feel at home. Very reasonably priced too and the salon is always spotlessly clean.

After a really stressful day in work, spending an hour with these ladies completely turned my day around....always full of life and humour and nails are always on point. Anna and Philippa are a breath of fresh air and highly recommend them!

I have been going to Polished for a long time and lovely Anna and Phillipa always put a smile on my face. The vibe is low key and relaxed, with amazing service to match. Hands down, the best range of colours, bespoke designs and nails that last, out of any salon I've used. I just love this place and it's people. Hannah Evans

First time I've visited last Saturday after a phone call to them Saturday morning to see if they could put right an awful job done the day before at a different Blackwood salon, fitted me in same afternoon and a lovely lady Philippa redid my nails, amazing job and booked my next appointment there and then, amazing service.

Had a shellac manicure with Anna and she did an excellent job, especially since 2 of my nails were badly broken. You can't tell at all!! Really happy 😁

About Polished

Polished is a nail salon based in Blackwood, carrying a strong customer rating. The consistent score across a range of review dates reflects a steady level of customer satisfaction rather than a single spike in positive feedback. Customers return repeatedly and several reviewers note they would not go elsewhere, which speaks to a strong sense of loyalty. The atmosphere is frequently described as relaxed and low-key, with the team noted for their warmth and humour. Reviewers with anxiety have specifically mentioned feeling comfortable and at ease during visits. The salon is praised for its cleanliness, its wide range of colours, and its bespoke nail designs. Work on damaged or broken nails also receives positive mention, with customers noting results that blend seamlessly with natural nails. Services include shellac manicures and bespoke nail design work, though a full service menu is not published.
