After getting a quick manicure from Sacha at the Yelp Links of London event I knew I needed to pay…read moreher a visit again! I love doing my nails myself and grow bored of my manicures quickly so I tend not to pay to get them done, but I'm no nail technician! My nails were in such a bad state shape-wise and I really needed to see a professional to sort the situation out! You can book in with Sacha via email and she works out of the Toni Cook salon. When I visited it was in their old location in Merchant City, but she informed me that they were in the process of moving to a swanky new salon just off Buchanan Street (above The Lab, where they are currently situated). I booked in about 2 weeks before my desired appointment time and I would recommend booking early as she's a busy little bee and appointments go quickly! I opted to go for a gel polish on my own nails rather than false acrylic nails. While I waited my turn in the salon I got a little nail wheel to browse the colours. There's a lot to choose from, lots of nice pastel-y colours and lovely dark vampy colours, as well as some sparkly numbers! I didn't really know what sort of design or look I wanted so Sacha suggested a few looks to me and I ended up going for a V design on some accent nails in alternating colours. I was getting my nails done specifically for my friends wedding and had a picture of my dress with me and Sacha helped me pick out some colours that matched well. Sacha was very professional and chatty during my manicure. She remembered me from the Yelp event which was really nice! I felt very relaxed while I was there and it seemed like my manicure flew in! I've been to some really standoffish nail techs in the past and have been entirely ignored while I've had my nails done, so I appreciate when someone can hold a conversation and still deliver an A+ manicure! I loved my nails when there were done and after 2 weeks they're still looking as good! My manicure came in at £25 which I think is pretty good considering how long it'll last. You can pay with cash or via paypal, card payments are also accepted but require a £1 service fee. Gel polish removal comes in at £4 which is nothing if you don't want to wreck your nails doing it yourself!! I've already booked in for my next manicure! I'd really recommend Sacha if you're looking to get your nails done, she does a banging manicure, she's super nice and her wee dog (who is really well behaved and comes to work with her) is so cute!! :)

Haven't gotten a manicure since I moved to Glasgow methinks so I thought, what better way to treat…read moremy nails than for a special occasion like Christmas? :) I made my booking with Sacha like a month+ in advance because I know she's busy, especially during the festive seasons. Lucky for my efficiency, I got a spot, and told her I wanted gel nails! I remember Queen B getting em and they lasted forever! Perfect, since I'll be away from Glasgow for 3 weeks! Anyway, I easily found the salon via Yelp, headed through the alley and up the stairs. To my pleasant surprise, was greeted by Sacha's wee chihuahua. He cuddled me while I waited for Sacha to be done with the previous client. What a good way to keep me occupied! Haha So, Sacha is a wonderful manicurist. She uses a brand of polish from the UK (I don't remember the name unfortunately. Artist polish? Something like that) and says she insists on only using those because of its high quality. I appreciate her sincerity! And the nail polish is after all, super nice! She's also very welcoming, friendly and open to trying fun artsy things in your nails. "Open to experiments" she says! :) she uses an LED nail dryer thinggy that makes your gel nails set asap and that's like super amazing to me haha no more wrecked nails! Anyway I love my nails! I have candy canes and a wee Christmas pudding on my ring fingers! The salon is spacious. Sacha is amazing and bubbly! Will definitely go back next year for a touch up or some new nail art hehehe Highly recommend!

Complete lack of communication from technician who showed lots of pictures of nail styles on her phone like she had done them ha! Nails were a mess, so got them redone before I left, I was pretty assertive. On getting my shellac removed from my toes I have found she has ground my nails so badly they are splitting. Had to pay for acrylics on my toes till they heal. I'm sure some of the technicians are decent but this woman had no clue. Use a trained and qualified nail tech or pay the price. I wouldn't go back if they gave me free nails and money.

Minutes walk from Partick train station, BW Beauty is a great wee beauticians offering everything from waxing and massages, to manicures and full make up. As I'm away on holiday next week, I booked myself in for a mani-pedi, knowing that Becca would have her work cut out for her with my chewed up, uneven nails. After soaking, exfoliating, massaging and shaping (heaven!), Becca paints on your colour of choice and cures your shellac ensuring up to 3-weeks of chip free nails! I'm pretty new to shellac, so I found this unbelievable and akin to witchcraft, but Becca assures me everyone knows about it and I'm just behind the times. My pedicure took almost an hour as I enjoyed my poor wee feet getting pumiced, exfoliated and pampered, before having matching shellac nails applied. I am also in love with the barbie pink foot-grater that Becca uses, and now I can't stop stroking my baby soft heels... Although BW does an express manicure for if you're in a hurry (30mins approx), if you have the time i'd recommend the full works. Becca really does an amazing job of making the experience feel luxurious and personalised (and great artists can't be rushed!). If you're looking for great service and lots of friendly smiles then definitely get yourself along to Partick soon!

I don't dislike getting them but I generally feel like I don't get good advice and just end up getting a trim. I'm also just lazy about it. I've since had my hair cut twice at Polly & Molly and have been really pleased with the results both time. I've still only really had a trim but it was just a much nicer experience than I've had. The small things make a difference. So many places end up straightening my hair really flat. They still straighten it but it's bouncy flat instead of dead looking flat. I've also just generally felt really well taken care of and feel more comfortable to the point where I don't postpone my haircuts to the same extent. On top of this, the prices are reasonable and they have a student discount.

A friendly welcome helped us feel immediately at home and soon our hands were being treated to an exfoliation and moisturising treatment followed by a file and polish all using top quality products. While our nails dried we relaxed and enjoyed an unhurried glass of fizz. Everyone is so friendly and attentive and the surroundings are suitably classy exuding chill- inducing vibes that make you feel special, which is exactly what you want from a spa. Looking forward to a return visit to enjoy the complete spa experience. There are frequent special offers.

Having lived in Dubai, I'm slightly picky when it comes to threading, and view it as an ancient Indian art. As a teenager, I was fascinated watching the ladies in the salons doing it, with so much ease! Al-Aishas reminds me of the salons back home, Hindi/Arabic music playing, a huge queue of people waiting to get there brows threaded. The treatment itself took about 10 minutes, which is completely normal. The lady both threaded my eyebrows and plucked the pesky hairs!.\ After the threading you get a tiny eyebrow massage as they work in the aloe-vera gel to cool your eyebrows. The main reason I will be going back here, the threading done was excellent and the price was as it should be. £5 for eyebrows, none of this £10+ seen in other salons. If you don't mind waiting and having a no frills treatment, I could not recommend here more!
