By Alex Bell - Garswood Nail Studio
I’m Alex, the face behind the nail desk.
Having been a nail enhancement specialist since 1996, I have been fortunate enough to build a steady base of very loyal clients, some of whom having been coming to me since day one.
When I am not behind the nail desk in my beautiful, home based nail studio, I can generally be found in photographic or film studios working on models and celebrities for various shoots and campaigns.
My work has been featured in British Vogue, at London Fashion Week, on campaigns for Ernest Jones, Primark, H Samuel and Swarovski and on the hands of Spice Girls, Soap Stars and Hollywood Royalty.
I offer the very best in luxury nail care from industry-leading brands such as
CND and ELIM.
My treatment menu includes everything from CND Retention liquid and powder acrylic enhancements (sculpted or over tip), CND Plexigel builder gel, CND Shellac, CND Spa natural nail manicures and pedicures, ELIM medical-grade pedicures and full toenail reconstruction, all carried out without compromising the health of the natural nail beneath.
For me, as an enhancement specialist, nail health is of paramount importance - I don’t use electric files or harsh removal techniques enabling the natural nail to remain strong and healthy at all times.
Are you a nail biter?
Do you suffer with nail damage or nail loss?
Do you hide your hands or feet?
I promise that I have always seen worse.
I guarantee that I can help you, both in the cosmetic short term, and the habit kicking long term too.
Book your free consultation today.
I look forward to welcoming you… The kettle is on!
