As part of my 25th Birthday, the Mrs bought me a Manicure here at Crystal Nails. I’ve never had a Manicure. I didn’t know what was going to happen to me. I’m glad she booked me in because on a Sat afternoon, it was very busy with walk-ins. It’s not a chatty establishment. There’s no — ‘So where are you going on holiday this year’ chat. I had never appreciated just how technical painting your nails can get. After soaking my hands and having my cuticles pushed and pulled from my fingers(I think) I was a little bit in awe of the Military Precision that went into making my Manicure-Virgin Hand turn into Shiny Shiny pretty nails. The woman doing my nails seemed like she ran the place and was very — direct with me. I think I kind of liked it… I’m not a massive girly girl in that way so I don’t think a manicure will be a regular thing for me. But if I get invited to a wedding or something I think I’d spend the £10 to have my hands sorted out and pretty. There are a whole range of other things they offer — the pedicure looks pretty good. All at reasonable prices and without the painful small talk.

I love this place! It’s efficient, cheap and manicures last and last and last! The staff are not the most chatty, but neither am I! There’s always a good selection of magazines to read, whilst sitting in the massage chair and having your toe-nails done. Recommended.

Just recently moved four doors down to the corner shop opposite from the library. Vibrant and colourfully Beautician. Very qualified professional, very welcoming and relaxing. They do everything from: Body wax Pedicure Manicure Eyelash extensions Crystal Gel Acrylic You can just walk in without appointment but you would have to wait an hour… So best to book an appointment. Weekends they are really busy.
