    I am now attending this nail bar regularly since Nina has started doing my nails. She is fabulous and does my nails just as I like. I had a pedicure with gel and nail extensions with gel at my last visit and all done perfectly. The other staff look good too but haven't yet experienced. Thank you!

    I visited the salon for the first time today for a pedicure and was really pleased with the experience. I arrived a bit early and was welcomed straight away by a friendly staff member who took me to choose a colour and started the pedicure right away. She was polite, smiley, and easy to talk to, which made the visit comfortable. I was also pleasantly surprised that the pedicure included a short foot massage with hot stones-something I didn't expect at this price point. Compared to other salons I've tried, where I often had to wait despite arriving on time or where the service felt rushed or limited, this felt more efficient and complete. I'll definitely be coming back.

    I have been going to The Nails Ex in Sawston for over 2 years and would not go anywhere else now. I have recommended friends and family as well. All the nail technicians are highly trained and superbly efficient. I always get a lovely, friendly welcome, and I find the whole experience so relaxing. I would recommend this nail bar over any other I've been to in the past.

    Visited this salon for the first time yesterday and it was great! I had BIAB french tip nails done for a wedding in France next week and I love them. A lovely lady sat me down and selected the colour for me. And then Andy (the manager) then did my biab. Overall, great experience and the whole team were very welcoming!
