Adore Mr. Alex & his husband Sam! Mr. Alex gently advises me on being too rough on my nails (I'm a nurse & spend a lot of time in my garden) but the coating he applies lasts a full month and I find that quite impressive.... considering. I usually book an appointment and seldom wait more than 15 minutes... but it's worth it. The salon is consistently tidy and I receive numerous compliments on my trusty French Tips every time!!! Not switching to anywhere else unless I'm traveling and need a touch-up!!!
