Important update ✨️

I've made the decision to close my books to new bookings (new and existing clients). This means my booking link will be removed publicly and only available for those clients currently booked in with me. You can access my booking link through your confirmation email/text.

This decision was made because I've got some exciting personal changes happening mid-year which will require me to reduce my hours. I will need to condense my days and I don't want to take on anymore clients with the expectation that I can offer ongoing bookings.

I will still post my availability for each upcoming week and anyone is more than welcome to fill those spots. However, these will be one-off appointments.

Just to reiterate, if you have an appointment booked with me currently, you can still book appointments moving forward. This is for new clients or existing clients that I saw prior to maternity leave. From July onwards my hours will reduce which may impact your future bookings but we can discuss this at your appointment.

Thank you for your understanding ❤️

It feels like yesterday that I took this picture 🥲

Just wanted to give a little update on bookings!

Tuesday nights (6pm) are booked out as well as Saturdays. I do have availability left during the week for regular appointments on either Wednesdays/Thursdays or Fridays. You're more than welcome to put your name on the waitlist in case any appointments pop up.

I'm using a new booking system now so that's why things look a little different. Please note that the address listed online is not accurate. For my regulars, I'm at the same address. But everyone will receive a reminder message 24 hours before your appointment that will have the address listed.

Anyone else wanting an appointment, please book this online through my page ❤️

Wow those 6 months flew by fast! My newborn is almost 5 months old...how did that happen!? 😂😭

I'm excited to see your beautiful faces again and get a debrief on what's been happening in your lives. I'm excited for you to meet my little Parky (on the days he's home). I've absolutely loved having this time with him, so thank you for being patient.

I'll be returning to work Friday 10th April

My new hours will be slightly reduced moving forward. Due to this, the booking process will need to be a bit more structured. I'll have preferred appointment slots instead of an open schedule like how it was before. (Please see photo for available times. Depending on what services people book these times may vary as I won't necessarily need two hours for everyone)

If you're interested in booking an appointment:
- Please have a look at the appointment times available and let me know which days/times you would prefer
- From what week you require your first appointment (you might need to time it with when you're due next)
- Also how many weeks in between appointments you prefer (3 or 4 etc)
- Are you happy for me to book a few appointments in for you? (I don't want someone in the future to take your appointment time). Do you foresee this appointment time not working on a regular basis?

Sorry for being difficult 😅 I just want to try and fit everyone in and keep a regular schedule. Once I have found a slot for all of my regulars, I will post the booking link so everyone else can book an appointment in the gaps available. Keep in mind I only have 4 after-hours appointments available every week. So if there's a few of you requiring those appointments you might need to wait until the 2nd or 3rd weeks for space available.

I'm happy to remove Builder Gel in your appointment like I normally would, but if you have Gel X (full cover extensions), Acrylics or SNS this will either need to be removed prior or I can add removal onto your booking (if time permits).

Hopefully this all makes sense. If you have any questions, please reach out. Once you let me know the information above, I'll start working on a schedule ASAP. It'll be a first in best dressed situation. ❤️

I'll be back in just over a month!

I'll make a post soon about my return date and hours I'll be working. Looking forward to seeing you all very, very soon ❤️

I'm feeling fancy 💅🏻

Playing around with some new clay gel 💅🏻

Flashback to this old set I did on myself. Will have to recreate this one but with a much more baby friendly length 💅🏻

Little Parker didn't get the memo about waiting for Mummy to have fresh nails ahead of his arrival! 💅🏻

✨ Officially on Maternity Leave ✨

Whilst I’m so excited for the time ahead, I know I’ll truly miss the wonderful interactions I get to share with each of you. Keeping up to date with your lives and experiencing your milestones.
I’m so grateful for every single client who has trusted me and made my days brighter. Your company is something I always look forward to and I have no doubt time will fly.

Thank you so much to all of you who bought or made gifts for me and/or baby. It actually blew me away the sheer amount of you who were so generous. I'm so lucky to have you all in my corner.

I’ll be back in April and will share updated hours and booking links closer to the time. In the meantime, if you’re not already and you would like to stay up to date you can follow my personal socials (insta) or Paige Surtees (facebook) as I'll be posting baby spam there.

Thank you again for your support, kindness, and well wishes — it means the world. 🥰

Bluey nails to match the theme of your kids' birthday party 💙🧡
