How it works

Three steps. Mobile appointments are unfamiliar, and people don't book unfamiliar things.

  1. Message me — tell me what you'd like, when suits, and send any picture you love. I'll confirm and send banking details for the deposit.
  2. I arrive with everything — lamp, tools, products. All you need is a firm surface, a plug and good light.
  3. One to three hours later — a full set, done properly, without you leaving the house.

A handful of the people who've let me into their kitchens, and what they thought once their nails were done.

About me

I’m a passionate nail technician who believes that beautiful nails are about so much more than just the finished look. It’s about taking a little time for yourself, feeling pampered, and leaving with that extra little boost of confidence. I’ve always loved the creativity and attention to detail that comes with being a nail tech, but what I love most is creating an experience where my clients can relax, feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. I take pride in my work and believe that the little things matter — from the details of your service to creating a clean, welcoming and relaxing environment. Every set is done with care, patience and the goal of making you feel absolutely beautiful. Whether you’re coming in for your regular appointment, treating yourself to some well-deserved self-care, or getting your nails ready for a special occasion, I want you to leave feeling confident, refreshed and excited to show them off. Thank you for supporting my small business and allowing me to do something I truly love. I can’t wait to have you in my chair.

Applied and removed properly, no. Damage comes from over-filing, and from picking sets off at home. I file as little as possible, and I remove everything by soaking rather than prying. If your nails need a break at any point, I'll tell you.

A form table with two chairs, a plug point nearby, decent light, and two to three uninterrupted hours. Everything else comes with me — table included, if you don't have a suitable one.

Gel polish lasts two to three weeks. Extensions and overlays need infills every two to three weeks as your natural nail grows out. With reasonable care, a well-structured set holds beautifully for that whole stretch.

No, I work in gel only. It's gentler on your natural nail, it flexes rather than cracking, and there's no smell — which matters when I'm working at your kitchen table. For length and strength, sculpted gel does everything acrylic does.
