  • All the staff here are very friendly and go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable. A very professional salon with a relaxed atmosphere. As usual Marg gave me a superb haircut and after knowing I was having my hair done for a special occasion made sure the style will last. I won't consider going anywhere else. Thank you so much.

Manicure FAQs

Nail technicians tend to start a manicure with a warm water hand soak, which soften the skin and nails. They then file, buff, and clean the cuticle, massage your hands with a moisturising cream, and apply a base coat of polish, before finishing with a layer of colour, top coat, and cuticle oil. Standard nail polish is left to dry naturally; shellac and gel polishes are cured under a UV lamp; acrylic nails cure in the natural air.

It depends on the type of manicure you get. You should allow around 30 minutes for a basic manicure that uses standard nail polish; shellac and gel nail manicures take up to 45 minutes; and acrylic nail manicures take around 90 minutes.
