A fantastic part of the extensive range of colours here at The Nail Workshop for spring / summer 2021 are available with glitter to add that special sparkle. I am thrilled that my clients want to mix colour and glitter combinations to show their own style and personality and then to see them leave happy with their colourful, unique set of hand crafted nails.
As well as our new collection of colours, some with glitter, we have been creating a variety of Gel, Acrylic and Silk Wrapped Nails and Gel Pedicures at The Nail Workshop since re-opening after lockdown.
Pictured above are a set of sculptured nail extensions using a cover hard gel. Eliza has been biting her nails all her life especially down the side walls of her natural nails. By using the sculpturing method, I rebuilt her side walls adding strength to the extensions. Lovely to meet you Eliza and welcome you to The Nail Workshop, I look forward to seeing you in a few weeks.
It has certainly been a busy few weeks since we were allowed to re open after lockdown ended for nail salons. Welcoming so many of my lovely ladies back as well many new customers into The Nail Workshop has been a lovely experience for me. It was certainly worth all of the hard work last summer writing the new operating procedures for The nail Workshop to ensue that we are compliant with government Covid guidelines to keep both clients and staff safe and investing in new equiptment and PPE. There has been a lot to talk about, catch up on and discuss with my ladies and it has made me smile seeing them all leave here happy with their beautiful nails.

Fed up with your Eyebrows, finding it hard to look after them? The Nail Workshop offers MyBrowz, High Definition Brows!
We can shape your brows using advanced techniques to give you the arch, shape, and colour to suit you, identifying brow shape to match the face. We will
• Measure between eyebrow and eye to find the right width and length
• Thread and wax excess hair above and below the eyebrow
• Trim and shape excess hair to create the ideal shape
• Use tweezers to create the right laser sharp line
• Tint eyebrow to disguise bald patches, darken the hair or give a much fuller look
• Use a correction pencil and mineral make up if any final corrections are needed.
Tinting – all brow hairs, this will include the ‘fluffy’ ones around the brows so that we have the maximum hair to work with to get the best shape for you. The tint we use is a special, high pigment tint to give a longer lasting result, more so than traditional tints. We mix the tint according to your present colouring and desired result.
Waxing – both above and below the brows . Using the HD Brow guidelines we achieve the shape which is tailored to suit you.
Threading - of the ‘fluffy’ hairs surrounding the brows to blend in to the hairline.
Tweezing – to perfectly fine tune your shape.
Trimming – any long hairs so that all of your brow hairs lie perfectly in their newly defined shape.
Aftercare – Some clients will need eyebrow pencil or powder to fill in any gaps in the brows whilst we encourage you to regrow any previously over plucked areas. We then apply a brow wax to set your gorgeous new brows into place.
Sleek and perfect shaped eyebrows can help you save time in the morning for make-up,they round up and open your face. Eyebrows may seem of no importance at first glance, but when you pay attention to details, you realize that the shape ofyour eyebrows can significantly affect the overall appearance.
The Nail Workshop Specialises in Facial/Brow Threading. What is the difference from Waxing, Tweezersor Sugaring?
Threading is an ancient method of hair removal becoming more popular in the UK. We will use a pure, thin, twisted cotton thread which is rolled over untidy eyebrows, hairlines, moustaches and facial hair, plucking the hair at the follicle level.
Unlike tweezing where a single hair is pulled out each time, threading can remove an entire row of hair, resulting in a straighter line. The twisting action traps the hair and lifts it out of the follicle. The results can last from two to four weeks. Threading is an alternative for those with sensitive skin as the top layers of skin are not traumatized or peeled.
Threading is extremely sanitary. Nothing but the thread touches the skin, and it's thrown away after use.
No chemicals are applied on the skin. When people have certain conditions, or are taking medicines that conflict with waxing and sugaring, they can still have threading done.
