Fab service from Lorane. She worked miracles on someone who does not look after their nails or hands. So pleased with advice given and end result 😊. Would definitely recommend and I will most certainly be seeing Lorane again.

Lorane has been doing my nails for almost 10 years, and throughout that time has always provided excellent advice, and a great service. She is happy to listen to my ideas ( I often bring photo inspirations) and to suggest additions and/or alternatives. She puts up with my requests for fluorescent colours, and also makes a great therapist! From someone who thought they'd never have nails strong enough to have manicures, to someone who now has really pretty nails, a big thank you to Tip Top Nails!

I have been having my nails done by Lorane since she started her business. I have watched the expertise grow with her constant training from experts in this field of nail care. She is a good time keeper and fits around me if she can. I have mine done every 2 weeks as my nails are very soft. Lorane comes to my home with all the equipment that is needed. I would highly recommend her services. CAROLINE GILES

Lorane has looked after my nails for a number of years now, and she is excellent with recommending new products that work for both me and my busy job. Friendly, Courteous, and Professional 5* service.

Lorane is very knowledgeable and pays great attention to detail. She listens to my nail art ideas and pictures I send her before appointments. She never copies ideas, uses them as a base to let her creativity flow, therefore I have unique nails. I am going away for several weeks and will need to remove polish myself. Lorane has prepared my nails during the last couple of visits making it easier for me to remove. Thank you Lorane for your expertise and friendship.

Lorane is excellent! She cares for the health of my nails and always has some great ideas for designs/colours. The products Lorane uses are also excellent and last such a long time: no chips or flaking! I recommend Lorane 100%

Lorane is interested in the health of nails as well as the appearance. In the year that she has been caring for my nails they have visibly improved and her salon is a cosy Aladins cave of products and a joy to visit.
