Very friendly and chatty which is something you want whilst getting your nails done, made sure I was happy with my nails before going any further. Asked what kind of colour id like for my French manicured acrylics, worth the money & 100% would recommend.

As usual I had a lovely manicure with Ashleigh today we were both remarking in how well my nails are since I started getting my manicures with Ashleigh. The length now is brilliant I even had to have them trimmed back . My beautiful gel bottle manicure was completed with another of Ashleighs amazing nail art designs. I am really looking forward to showing them off at the wedding tomorrow. thank you Ashleigh

Had another lovely appointment with Laura, so grateful to be fitted into her busy schedule! In discussing ideas about what ideas I had, Laura explained what looks are achievable with gel which was really helpful for me, and I am so very happy with my smiley french manicure!

Manicure FAQs
There are a number of different kinds of manicures available including basic (nail polish), gel, Shellac, acrylic, dip powder, French, reverse French, American, Russian, paraffin, and hot stone
Many nail technicians recommend once-weekly manicures to ensure your nails always look good and that your nail polish remains chip-free. However, you can get away with having manicures less often – ask your technician for their specific advice as the frequency can vary according to the nail polish used.
If you like soft hands and beautiful nails, you’ll love getting a manicure. Regular manicures can be very relaxing; they help prevent fungal nail infections and leave your nails looking polished and pristine.
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.
Yes, absolutely. In fact, it’s common, particularly for those using regular nail polish or gel. If you’d like to give it a try, there are various different kits and pieces of equipment available to buy, but we always recommend having a manicure done by a professional to ensure you get the results you want.
Manicurists tend to begin a manicure by soaking your hands in warm water to soften the skin and nails.
