These ladies are simply the best at their job, the kindest in the business and will always offer a bespoke and unique service that I’ve found nowhere else. They are also insanely talented!

Kate

Was trying to get an appointment with Sophie for 2 years, then she opened the shop and I was given the wonderful Emma who taught me to be brave! Now I’m with lovely Kim Everyone is exceptionally friendly and professional - I’ve never had a bad experience here and always leave happy and with a gorgeous set of creative new nails. Rainbow Nails - I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Martine

What can I say ! I have been coming to Sophie for about 10 months. She has the most fabulous warming personality and makes you very relaxed during your visit .Her work is exceptional .I never really know what I want when I arrive and leave it to Sophie. She never disappoints and creates what would be described as a work of art. She is so creative and her designs are so unique. Love her work. The other girls who work there are so friendly too.

Jane

I wanted to have my nails done here for a long time but Sophie worked alone from home and was fully booked! I can definitely understand why! Sophie’s work is incredible. When I heard about the new salon I was so excited, and it’s lovely there. Literally endless choices of glitters, colours, stamps and designs. I booked in with Ellie, who is really lovely, no design is too complicated and I always leave feeling so pleased with my new nails. I’ve had lots of compliments too! I have never had any problems, it’s so easy to book using the online system, which is great when your super busy. I would highly recommend rainbow nails to anyone looking for a new place to get their nails done.

Gemma

They are friendly and always make you welcome. I love having my nails done there and I would not go anywhere else. I've been having my nails done there for months now and mine last for weeks.

Caroline

The girls at Rainbow Nails are lovely. I love having my nails done by Kim. She is a very talented lady as are all the girls. Kim has surpassed herself with some fantastic creations. I would highly recommend visiting this lovely friendly salon for all your nail creations.
