ANY CLIENTS WITH AN APPOINTMENT TODAY PLEASE LEAVE IN PLENTY OF TIME

The traffic is StIves and surrounding areas is incredibly heavy due to road closures because of the flooding (low road is still closed I believe) & there has been two significant crashes on the A1307 with the road being closed both sides. Thoughts are with all involved.

Please leave in plenty of time and drive safely

Please send me a message if you’re interested xx

Hey guys! Just like every year unless you book in extra time with me for nail art I will only allocate a normal infill time which will give me enough time for a couple of fingers with nail art on them. If you want nail art/designs on each finger I will need more time. I am now fully booked till the new year so don’t have any wiggle room to accommodate extra nail art unless it’s already been booked! Sorry guys! # # #

OH MY GOD!!!! What an artist!!! If you’re not already following tiaeverdell.art then you absolutely should be!!! She’s incredible!! The studio looks like a winter wonderland ☃️ thank you so much Tia!! Insane talent!!! I love it!! ❤️

Wahhhhh you asked and I listened!! I’ve got an exclusive One stroke class coming up on Monday 12th Feb!!

My lovely mums lovely nails!!! She had her nails done 4 weeks ago today (basic gel polish no builder) for my sisters wedding and look!! Not a chip in sight thanks to the AMAZING !!! She very rarely has her nails done as she’s so busy AND you can see she’s a busy teacher- always using the keyboard or out in the garden!! Good products aren’t hard to come by and neither is good education!! Trust in your brand, know your brand and be educated in your brand!!
