Best Gel Nails near me in Central, Bournemouth

This is without a doubt the best salon in Bournemouth. I get a lot of compliments on my cut since I discovered Redlocks. Paula is so professional, very experienced and really listens to her clients.

Had a lovely experience at Redlocks. Hugo was really professional and made me feel really welcome and comfortable throughout. We had a quick chat at the start of the appointment and he listened carefully to what I wanted, and always took the time to explain what he was doing to make sure I was happy. I left the salon with gorgeous, healthy beach waves that lasted all day and still looked lovely even after being out all evening (almost unheard of in my fine, flat hair!). Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a good hair salon in Bournemouth!

I have had several sessions at Privé Salon Bournemouth, in all of them I received excellent service and this last one was no different. Excellent service and friendliness! I recommend this beauty salon to everyone. Thank you very much.

Madison did a gel french manicure for me as part of her training and she was amazing! I've paid professionals before who weren't as good as her. Good luck in your new career. You're a natural ✨️

My friend and I had a pedicure and I also had a manicure, it was totally amazing! The care and attention we received was incredible, all the staff were lovely, we felt quite at home . We will definitely be back and highly recommended Crows Nest, it’s by far the best I’ve ever had! Thank you x

I have been coming to Bex for the last 5 years, and there is a good reason i have been going back for so many years. I don’t know a nail tech that doubles as a therapist alongside giving me the best nails I have EVER laid my eyes on. I don’t think i could ever consider going to anybody else for my nails as Bex as she always knows what I would want, and executes the designs flawlessly. Big love for Bootiki, best nails in Bournemouth 🩷

I had the most amazing afternoon with Kelly today. She is so friendly, professional and easy to talk to, and does such a great job with all the treatments. Today I had the 20/20/20 package so went with facial, massage and toe nail file and polish, then added on an express manicure with gel polish and french tip, and finally a bikini wax. Kelly made sure I was comfortable and happy with all treatments, nothing was too much trouble and I would highly recommend Brilliance beauty Salon... the whole team are really friendly and make you feel welcome as soon as you step inside.

Had a gel manicure - for the first time - and my nails look great. They're in much better condition than before and the colour is vibrant and shiny. And had a lovely chat chat with Ilinca during the treatment.

Really pleased with my manicure and pedicure. Dominique is always so welcoming and professional. Her years of experience shine through and my nails always last a long time (for me) due to her very careful gel application.

Can’t fault the service. Owner of the salon is a lovely lady who made us feel very much at home straight away. The colour and coverage of the gel nail manicure was perfect - really happy customers! Thank you!

The experience was absolutely stunning! We had a great catchup and Madison was so careful with my nails. She explained each step when I asked and she was very attentive to my needs. I highly recommend and will be returning for my infill of gel nails. 😊

I had builder gel put on my nail and buffed down by Kira. She was very friendly even offered me a drink before we started. She was very patient and nice to talk to and explained each step along the way. Thank you 🫶
