Went to Aimee for a spray tan, she was fab from start to finish. So professional and made me feel so at ease, explained everything really well and really took the time to make sure my tan was perfect. Showered it off this morning and it’s perfect, colour is lovely and even. Will definitely be back!

Prep of nails is great a lot of time taken to get the nails etc. in top condition before applying varnish. Great atmosphere at The Nail Shed, always a warm welcome from Melissa and Rudi too.

Nail Art FAQs
Nail art is any kind of creative decoration that’s applied to your nails using nail polish, glitters, stones, and/or stickers. It is intended to enhance the overall look of your nails and is usually applied after a manicure or pedicure.
If you’re a fan of adopting your own unique look, you may want to consider nail art. It’s a great way of reflecting your personality in a colourful, fashion-forward way.
To keep your nail art in top condition, you’ll probably want to have it applied once every 2-3 weeks.
To help preserve the look of your nail art, always ensure your fingers are fully dry after washing your hands and use a hand and nail cream to keep your skin and nails moisturised. You should also avoid exposure to high heat and harsh chemicals (like turpentine), which will damage your nails, avoid acetone (which can remove the polish and nail art), and wear gloves when you do housework. If you bite your nails, try hard not to when you’ve had nail art applied – it may cause your nail art, manicure, and nails to crack and break.
If you book an appointment to have nail art applied to your nails in Portobello/Craigmillar, you’re likely to pay between £1 and £38.
Nail art should last 2-3 weeks depending on the types of polish and nail art products used.
