The wonderful Vicky O recommended Beena to me and after avoiding my eyebrows for a time too long to…read moremention here, I booked an emergency appointment before I was to attend a wedding. Even though I rang at half five on a Friday night to book an appointment, Beena fit me in immediately and I ran straight over. Located within TipTop Photography on the corner of Warstone Lane and Spencer Street, you ascend up a non-descript staircase and into Beena's neutrally designed studio. Beena was incredibly welcoming and the addition of Radio 2 in the background made me feel very relaxed. She asked me what my normal routine was for my eyebrows, and considering I don't normally do anything, this bit of the conversation was rather short! Beena then talked me through what she was going to do and then began to tweeze and thread. I'd not really had threading done before, so it took a bit of getting used to, but I managed it! The whole process took about ten minutes and afterwards I was thoroughly impressed, I have two eyebrows and they are perfectly shaped! I can't thank Vicky enough for this recommendation and considering Beena is located less than 2 minutes from my house, I'll be back!

Then I had to put on some very attractive paper pants before the lady started to wrap me up using lots of bandages that had been soaked in what can only be described as a clay like substance. They were left on for around 60 minutes whilst I was left to lay on the bed and relax. Afterwards I was measured again and I had lost a combined total of 5 inches from different parts of my body. Very impressive.

They have a lot of regular customers and due to the central location, they also get many passers by popping in for a quick touch up or replacement nail. I've had full nail extensions done here a few times which tends to take just under 1 hour.

The girls are always really chatty which is just what you need when you're treating yourself to having your nails done.

I've been numerous times over the past two years and the result has always been fantastic. Situated in the Minories, off Bull Street, it's does have a city centre location and gets a lot of walk-by traffic. I've always managed to be seen as a walk-in within 20 minutes (I tend to leave then come back) but to make sure I get seen when its convenient I now book appointments. I was here one Friday at 4pm and it was already very busy though I got here at 10am on a Saturday and I was the only person there for an hour. They do acrylics, gel, manicures, pedicures, tooth diamonds amongst other things. I've only every had infills/full sets of acrylics. The staff work quickly and efficiently. I've never been disappointed in the results. There's a large variety of colours of nail varnish to suit everyones taste. Prices are reasonable and what you would expect to pay - £25-30 for full sets and £18-22 for infills. They do charge extra if you want designs. It is cash only so make sure you get cash before you go in.

The salon wasn't the most modern I'd ever been in, but it felt clean and it had a relaxed vibe so it worked for me. There were a few products available to buy but I didn't look too closely at the price as I wasn't interested in buying anything. The girl took my previous nail varnish off and filed my nails into the desired shape. I went for a combination of in between round and square nails which looked great. I was really impressed with the quality of the hand and arm massage. It was so relaxing I didn't want it to end! The overall experience was great and my nails looked better than ever.

Now Nail Inc is one of the world's biggest nail brands so when I'm looking for a little extra special look I like to visit the Nail Inc on Corporation Street, centrally located in Birmingham town centre. Nail Inc is like the luxury nail treatment money can buy, it's really worth all the money- trust me I've become an expert over the years on nail treatments. I love the minx look on nails at the moment, as Nail Inc is a great place to get this. Check this out; you can even get the Ruby Red Crystal Pedicure....which I've tried once. I had this done 2 weeks ago and it looks amazing. Even the boyfriend was impressed, lol! So, if you'd like to make your nails look sexier then visit Nail Inc- maybe try going for one of the intricate nail art designs, if you dare.

Definitely the best place to go in Birmingham for your nails! I've been here numerous times and…read moreeach time I've walked away happy. It's quite a small little shop but it works. There are about 4/5 tables you can sit at and there is a chair for pedicures at the back. Located in Minories you've probably walked past it loads of times without realising. It's about £15-20 for infills depending on what you get and from £25 for a full set. They are great at the finishing touches - if you have read my other reviews regarding nail bars, they tend to fail on the painting whereas this one doesn't! I went in last time and asked for the Irish flag to be painted on and it was perfect. It does get busy, I tend to go in the morning if I can around 10am when they open but if you are going after work or on the weekends, I'd book. Check this place out, it's the best in Birmingham!

I have been coming…read morethis nail shop every month since the summer, simply bevause it's near to my work so I can go in my lunch break. The nails are hit and miss and they are so rude especially Lee and this one other woman who has broken English and is small and peitite. Today I came back in the shop because a nail had came off 5 days after I had just got them done, not to mention it has gone green!!!! Anyway I said this but my main concern for now was getting the nail on for New Years then I'd have a break from acrylics, never have I ever had my nail go green from acrylics, I have been getting my acrylics for 4 years now with breaks in between (my local is in redditch who are great but as mentioned earlier since summer I've had them done here) the woman and lee were so rude they said my nail was already like that and the woman was being rude giving dirty looks, insisting I am lying and saying things in her language! I said I am not here to dispute whether My nail was like this before which I know for a fact it was not, are you going to fix my nail? They said yes but we have to charge you. 4 pounds for one nail that came off after 5 days of you doing them!!! I am so so disgusted and I will never return to the shop, every time I go into the shop I am already anxious as I know they are rude if I ask for something particular ( which is stupid when I'm the one paying ). This experience has topped it off! No customer service, no respect for customers! And god knows what they are putting in their acrylic.
