  • Booked the time out mother's day special with the facial bar hydrate, brow shape and tint and head and neck massage, an hour felt like 15 min was very relaxing, I'm so happy with my brows which I haven't had done in a very long time, Georgia listened to me and yeah I'm stoked. My skin looks and feels amazing, hydrated and firm. Will definitely recommend and be back

As soon as I walked in, she was professional and prompt, she had great communication and made sure I felt okay throughout the entire appointment and ensured I liked the result of my eyebrows. I had a pure Fiji foot scrub and hybrid brows done, and loved the result for both! I highly recommend Beauty & Beyond and would definitely come back again!

Manicure FAQs

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.

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 polish used: traditional nail polish lasts about a week, acrylic nails should last between 6-8 weeks and will need a fill every 2-3 weeks to cover regrowth. Shellac and gel nails last for 2-3 weeks.

It depends on the type of manicure you choose, but the average price of a manicure in Kensington is $50.

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.

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.

Yes. Some types of manicures do carry risks. Cuticles could be infected if they are cut, and you could suffer with dry, weak, or brittle nails if your polish isn’t correctly removed. Ask your nail technician to talk you through the risks before you book your appointment.
