Best Nail Technician

With clients no longer content with a mainstream manicure followed by a solo splash of colour, nails have taken on a new identity and have become a hot accessory, matching your lipstick, shoes or even your iPhone. However, a true artist’s touch is required. We have these digit decorators on direct dial. Nominated for Best Nail Technician are ?

Kate Ulanicka, Mink

On hand to deliver the most complicated commissions, Kate Ulanicka is one of the names in nails. By the time you leave her capable clutch, you’ll be well and truly #minked.

Izabela Niedzwiecka, Serenity Day Spa

Serenity Day Spa is a place of worship for devoted fans of Izabela Niedzwiecka, whose handicraft could almost rival Michelangelo’s. A pro at, erm, nailing trends, she’ll make your vision come to life.
