Garswood Nail Studio

I'm Alex, the face behind the nail desk.
I've been a nail artist since 1996 and have worked on the hands and feet of soap stars, pop stars and Hollywood royalty alike. I pride myself on the fact that every single client gets the same level of exemplary service from me.
My work has been featured in British Vogue, Glamour Magazine, at London Fashion Week and in many reputable style and beauty bibles. I am also lucky enough to have worked on amazing TV shows and commercials alike.
I have a home-based salon in Garswood where I service my wonderful clients. I offer the very best in luxury nail care from industry leading brands such as: CND - Creative Nail Design, Glossify, Elim, Leighton Denny and Byredo.
I offer an extensive treatment range for both hands and feet.
My established ‘menu’ includes everything from liquid and powder acrylic enhancements (sculpted or over tip), builder gel, Shellac, gel polish and nail art, natural nail manicures, medical-grade pedicures and full toenail reconstruction, all carried out without compromising the health of the natural nail beneath.

For me as an expert, nail health is of paramount importance - then it’s time to bring on the creativity.
Whether you are a fan of classic looks or avant-garde statements, I stay style-aware and trained in contemporary methods so that your nails complete your own chic calling card.
If you have ever felt the need to hide your hands.
If you long to wear sliders during the summer months but are too embarrassed to show your feet.
If you are a nail biter or have suffered nail damage at any point. Let me help you.
I promise that I have always, always seen worse.
I look forward to welcoming you,

love

"As a beauty writer, I’ve come to recognise an expert and only go to the best.
Alex is so experienced and professional, and her nail-and-toe toe ‘glow ups’ means she has been recognised by leading brands as part of the best in the industry.
I have had some health issues which have really impacted my nails and Alex has worked with me towards helping my hands and feet look their best again."
