I was having gel polish on my nails and although I haven’t been for ages I was made very welcome. The salon is impeccably clean and looked well organised. I loved the little touches of mini mince pies (yum) . Chloe was professional and easy to get on with. I definitely recommend Butterfly Beauty

Have had a lovely relaxing pedicure and manicure treatment; what a fabulous pampering session✨ … enjoyed every minute. Sarah comes and brings a calm to the time together, not only providing the time & attention my hands and feet enjoy, but a lovely reset to my mood through the reflection our lovely chats bring. Being kind and thoughtful, Sarah is the perfect company for time out from this busy world 💫♥️
