Oops I'll probably get in trouble for writing this but I have had a very bad experience at this place and must warn you. I went here to get my nails done and have an eyebrow wax (boys move on!) I'd previously phoned and asked the price for Acrylic nail extensions and was told the Gel extensions were better and they cost £36. I have been having Acrylics for the last 10 years and couldn't find anyone in the area to do them any cheaper so decided to go for it. I booked an appointment for the following week. I arrived on time but the two Nail technicians were still on previous clients having run over. No problem, I asked if they could squeeze me in for an Eyebrow wax while I waited. The girl was great, the shape perfect, all was good - except for the price - £13! OK, no problem you live and learn. I then had my nails done, it took the average hour and a half but if I'm honest the shape wasn't great. She painted them in French Polish for me, as we all know, you have to have a polish of some kind. When I came to pay the bill I was staggered to learn that my afternoon of pampering was to cost me £69! When I queried this I was informed that yes it is £36 for the Gel extension and £20 for a polish! Cheeky! Had I known I would have painted them myself, I could have brought 10 bottles of the stuff for that price. I stupidly paid and vowed never to return. I'm used to paying £30 for the nails and brow wax. The place was cramped, overpriced and a completely crap experience. Two of my nails actually broke the very next day - never again will I return!
