Dovecote Beauty Salon - (Near Hampshire, UK)

5 /5 Freya Edwards: Got my Christmas nails done. The nail techs did a fabulous job and great with giving advice on nail care. Amazing service as always :)

5 /5 Reha James: Absolutely amazing service! Was a walk in for Acrylics and I could not be more happy with the results! And amazing pricing!! So glad I found this place and went in on a whim, the girls in there were to do lovely! And the lady who did my nails was so chatty which made the experience so much better! Definitely will be going back! First set of acrylics in 7 years and I am not disappointed whatsoever! Definitely will be returning for my infill!

2 /5 Melanie Liu: This was my third visit, and unfortunately I will not be returning. After she filed my nails I asked her to reshape them as I asked for rounded nails and just to make them slightly shorter than they were. She said something about how soaking the nails in water messes with the shape so she will file after applying the gel . However even after she filed my nails after the gel application they all looked pretty bad and none of them were round. And my nails are now much shorter than I wanted. Some were oval with odd corners. And most of my nails have these tiny bubbles that I cant pick up on camera. Id also like to note that not once did she check if my nails matched eachother, like the left pinky nail and right pinky nail, and so on. Because she filed my nails after applying the gel, they now have an open edge. Nice girls, but not professional and no attention to detail.

2 /5 Fiona Humberstone: Not reccomended. Sadly gels were peeling within hours of application. A free repair was offered and that too chipped (from the top and nail bed) within days. Sadly I had no time to go back in for another repair before I left for a work trip and so nails were embarrassingly chipped. Photos show nails after 2 days, 4 days and 8 days. Eight days on they look appalling. Just called the salon hoping given my experience (and that I have photos from 2 days in) and Amy point blank refuses to remove and re do. Their policy is to repair only. Do not reccomend at all. Extremely disappointed.

1 /5 elisabetta donvito: Awful experience. I get my nails done every single month and this time my regular place was full and I needed an urgent refresh. My nails always last a minimum of 3 weeks but on day 3 4 fingers are chipped and most are half peeled off. I got charged £47 for simple white French and polka dots on other two fingers. I can usually get them £35 at my regular place and it at least lasts more than 3 days. I am incredibly upset at the money I wasted on this awful job and having to spend more on a replacement.
