    This salon was recommended to me by a friend after having my nails done badly at another salon. Pics do not do them justice. Absolutely love them! Staff are very welcoming, polite and thorough so I will be back!!

    I've had acrylics put on there (£45) and taken off (£15) twice and both times have come away very happy with my nails. The staff are very skilled and one lady does absolutely beautiful finely detailed painting

    Went to the Nail File today for my 3 weekly appointment of having my acrylic nail infills done and I am so pleased with them . Tan advised what would be best and I took his recommendation. Great service and so friendly. I always book to make sure I get the date I need.

    Tan and May are phenomenal. They are amazing at nails and have great advice when you are struggling for nail colours. Always so professional and accommodating. They are super friendly and kind and I would recommend to anyone who is in the local area to get their nails done here!
