Manicured London is a modern, membership-led nail studio founded by session manicurist Tinu Bello. Located within Stone Studios, just moments from Hackney Wick station, the space has been designed to feel calm, personal and considered, a slower, more intentional alternative to the traditional busy salon.
We specialise in Russian manicures and pedicures, focusing on meticulous cuticle work, detailed prep and flawless finish. This dry technique allows for a cleaner, longer-lasting result with exceptional precision and shine.
From structured BIAB overlays to minimalist gel finishes and soft, wearable extensions, every treatment is performed with a strong focus on nail health, structure and longevity using professional, high-performance products.
This is not a quick in-and-out nail bar. Appointments are one-to-one, allowing time for proper prep, shaping and attention to detail, the difference you can both see and feel weeks later.
Whether you're maintaining your natural nails or starting a healthy nail journey, Manicured London offers an elevated yet relaxed experience designed around consistency, craftsmanship and care.
