I have been with Fi for over a year now. Started with no nails due to biting for years now I have the most beautiful nails. I started with gel extensions now I have biab. They are always absolutely perfect with amazing precisions and the most beautiful colours.

Viktoria is an incredible nail artist. I've been going to her for years and now she has Posh Beauty which is a beautiful venue for treatments. No design is out of bounds and Viktoria will work with you to create the best nails for you. Would highly recommend 💅🏻💕

WOW, WOW, WOW a fantastic experience from start to finish. This was my first appointment at the salon and it did not disappoint. I was hesitant in booking an appointment as my last nail experiece was about 8 years ago(different salon) and it wasnt great. So I took the plunge and called Posh Beauty and Academy to see if they had an appointment available. I spoke with Victoria over the phone. As I wasnt sure what I wanted done due to my limited experience having my nails done previously, she guided me through the options and made a suggestion based on the answers I gave. I booked the appointment. The salon itself is a clean girlie salon, think Elle Woods vibes from the movie Legally blonde. All the staff were friendly and acknowleged me when I arrived. I was offered a drink and my coat was taken. My appointment was with Sky. She was very friendly, reassuring and throughout the appointment checked that I was happy with everything. Her attention to detail was fantastic. This appointment has helped me overcome my fear of nail salons, I love my nails and can't wait for my next appointment. A big plus is the salon is open on a Sunday, which is perfect for me as weekdays are filled with work and afterschool activities and Saturdays are usually spent driving to different locations around Cardiff for grassroots football.

My first time visiting today. I was very nervous due to visiting somewhere else a year ago and was so disappointed that I didn't want to go again. I looked online and booked thanks to the highly rated reviews. After speaking with a regular customer, she restored my confidence and Milla has done my nails beautifully, I'm so happy with them. I could already feel & see how professional she was and was confident within 5 mins of being there. So much better than where I went before. I've already booked my next appointment. Thanks so much Milla, you're amazing and I'm so happy. I would highly recommend this place. It's also beautiful inside too.

THE BEST NAIL TECHNICIAN! I've Never had such beautiful nails! Viktoria is an incredible Woman and takes complete ownership over her Art and Creations! She is down to earth, bubbly, professional and pays attention to the details! I have traveled from England to Wales just to get her service as I can not find anyone local with the same ability! I've never been let down and she's just incredible! Thank you Viktoria 🤍

I've been here 3 times now and every time I'm over the moon with my nails! I had my nails done by Victoria twice and by Sara once - honestly absolutely amazing results all three times. The girls are so talented and the products they use are worth every penny. I haven't had a single chip or crack on my nails all 3 times - they lasted all 4 weeks until my next appointment. Highly recommended this place for anyone wanting to get their nails done.

My first visit to this lovely salon. Service was great from start to finish. I had Biab Nail extensions, which is just what I wanted. Mila was friendly, gave great advise and most importantly did a fab job on my nails. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I booked a lash lift model appointment. Sky was very professional, amazing and quick, the only thing is I didn't see too much of a difference in the lashes lift, this picture was just after I left the salon.
