    Amy and Tom are not only so friendly, but also extremely talented. They take their time, pay attention to detail, and always try their best to get my nails just the way I want them. Highly recommend! 💅 🔥 😍

    I recently moved into the area and have tried a few different nail salons, but this one is by far the best! I'm very picky about where I go, and I couldn't be happier with my experience here. The staff are so friendly, polite, and welcoming, and the vibes are just perfect. The atmosphere is relaxing, and they really take their time to make sure everything is done to a high standard. I've definitely found my new go to nail salon. I'm a very simple person and always go for a classic, natural look. I had BIAB done on my natural nails and I couldn't be happier with the result! The attention to detail was amazing and they made sure I left completely happy.

    I got my nails done today and had such a lovely experience. The service was excellent from start to finish, and everyone was so welcoming. Tina did my nails with incredible patience and care, and they turned out beautifully. The prices are also very affordable, which makes the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back!

    First time visiting last week for a full set of acrylics. I was so impressed with the service I received and staff were very polite and friendly. The gentleman who did my nails was so thorough and precise that he gave me the perfect shape that I wanted and the exact nude pink to match my skin tone. He kept asking if I was happy and made sure to not be too distracted whilst doing my nails. I'm so happy with my nails and have been getting lots of compliments. The price was good too. I'm looking forward to coming back :)

    First time visiting Tips & Toes and left very happy with my nails! Amy did a flawless job on my gel manicure which lasted 3 weeks. My pedicure was also good, although the sides were not painted properly which annoys me but will make sure to mention this during the pedicure next time. The salon itself is nothing fancy and cleanliness of the tools is questionable, but can't beat £61 for a manipedi in London!
