5 IDEAL PLACES TO GET A MANICURE IN LONDON

London is full of great nail salons, so there’s no excuse for your fingers to go unpolished.  We’ve handpicked 5 of our favourite nail salons for you to get your digits decked out at.

LONDON GRACE, PUTNEY

Ever wish you could grab a latte (or something a little stronger) to sip on while getting your nails done. Well you can at London Grace. Serving a menu of coffee and cocktails alongside an award-winning nail bar, this is the ideal place for a coffee and a catch up. London Grace also prides itself on its own collection of nasty-free nail polishes. Oh and you get a free coffee with any treatment before 10am.

Address: 26 Putney High St, London SW15 1SL

HULA NAILS, OLD STREET

This vintage tiki style beauty parlour near Old Street roundabout is seriously fun. They offer all the usual manis, but if you want something a bit special then this is the place to come. The talented technicians are skilled in unique and detailed nail art –  you can get pretty much anything painted on your  nails here  – think palm trees for summer, snowflakes for winter and cute pandas just for fun.

Address: 203-205 Whitecross St, London EC1Y 8QP, UK

CHEEKY PARLOUR, HOLBORN

This is Cowshed’s trendier little sister so we don’t really need to say anything about the quality of Cheeky Parlour. Just know that with its industrial style, white brickwork and chic furniture, this place is seriously cool.

Address: 198/200 High Holborn Road, London

BLOW, COVENT GARDEN

We love this place, it’s perfect if you are pushed for time and need to look good fast. We suggest getting a speedy thirty minute blow-dry and then your nails filed, shaped and buffed. Book in advance because its great reputation and central London location means it’s always busy.

Address: 8 Slingsby Place, St Martins Courtyard, London WC2E 9AB

NAILS AND BROWS, MAYFAIR

Set over two floors with nails on the ground level and brows on the first floor, this salons main focus (as the name suggests) is two things and they do them well.

Address: 31 Berkeley Street, Mayfair London W1J8EJ
