    Lovely, clean nail salon with a great selection of colours, glitters, chrome and cateye. Design linework has been immaculate and gorgeous each visit. I wish I knew everyone's names as they are all kind and accommodating, but especially so to thank the lady that did my most recent set. She was very gentle, gave wonderful advice and is absolutely the Queen of Art! The best nail art ever! She recommended great colour options to go with a pattern I picked and over a week later they're still immaculate and gorgeous. It was also super useful when she tapped my hand to let me know when to cure the nails as I have issues with my hearing and it was just another detail to show how experienced and skilled she is. I can't wait to come back in for a new set! The first set I came in for was done by a younger male tech a bit thick and had to be redone after a couple popped off as the gel wasn't set properly and I was told that maybe I hadn't left my hand under the lamp for the full time (which was untrue as I wasn't exactly going anywhere and didn't remove them lol, though I should have let him know it was painful under the lamp which was my error) but mistakes happen and it could have been anything! I haven't had these problems with any of the ladies doing my nails at all so really could have been a one off. I was more than happy to pay for a new set as I had a complete change and I was even given a discount for a couple of the nails popping off. If you have the chance you should absolutely visit this nail salon and get a gorgeous set for yourself. I've added some photos of mine but please ignore my cuticles, I need to oil them more often!

    I had my nails done yesterday by Jessie and i am so happy with them! She is lovely and listed to exactly what i wanted. Having gone to the same person for ten years i was shocked how good they were and i have already booked 2 appointments to go back and will be going forward.

    I'm absolutely in love with my birthday nails!! They honestly feel like tiny pieces of art on my hands. I couldn't stop staring at them after my appointment. The team is always so welcoming and friendly. They really listen to what you want and pay such close attention to the little details. You can tell how much care and skill goes into everything they do! Can't recommend them enough.

    This has been our regular salon for just over a year now and we wouldn't consider going elsewhere. They do excellent artwork and really listen to what you want. More importantly; it doesn't have that salon smell - and you see them regularly sanitising the areas and equipment.

    wow wow wow!!! everything about this establishment is pure delight! the staff are so welcoming and happy- they really can't do enough for you! not to mention their skills are on point- my nails came out beautifully!!! i couldn't be more happy with how they turned out. the staff themselves are the highlight of the appointment- they are so welcoming, friendly and helpful. i was given multiple drinks throughout my appointment, lovely conversation and even helped to book my mother in later in the day despite the fact they were already busy- words cannot describe how lovely they are. this was by far my best experience having my nails done and i will most definitely be returning!!!

The whole experience makes you feel welcome and looked after! For someone who likes plain nails I decided to take a chance on a cute little design, and OH MY! The set looks stunning!!! Literally 100/10! - honestly this is my go to salon and I could NEVER go anywhere else! - it is worth the try! I promise 🥰
