Brighton Nails doesn't look quite like its caught up with the times. The lime green exterior, the…read moreyellow writing, the image of a hand clutching a rose...its all so Eighties! Whats even more incredibly Eighties is the image of a woman with bleach blond bouffant hair in the window! I am usually sort of a fan of this outdated tacky stuff, but this is just too much. Brighton Nails (such imagination!) is only slightly less outdated on the inside. It doesn't really matter as it doesn't affect the service they offer- they are the friendliest ladies and they know how to do a good manicure. What is lost in atmosphere and attractive decor is certainly made-up for in reasonable prices! All the usual treats are on offer: manicures, pedicures, silks and acrylic extensions. Like the other nail salons in the area, they offer an extensive array of air brush nail designs- not my cup of tea, but if it's yours Brighton Nails looks like as good a place as any! Although this place looks less than appealing from the outside, you'll get much better value for money than at one of the poncy beauty salons in town.

This is a Japanese-inspired salon which is beautifully decorated with oriental ornaments and art, stripped floors, lanterns and zen nail desks complete with cushions and Maneki Neko cat. The complete antithesis to the pink-themed champagne bars, thankfully. The technicians themselves work wonders with their varnishes and adhesive flowers although I decided to go for a plain manicure. I never thought I'd say this, but there's quite a skill involved in nail decorating!

I've been a few times now in a desperate attempt to stop biting my nails by keeping them covered with falsies. The ladies here have been really helpful, friendly and patient with me every time. They've even been kind enough to devote two people to filing and applying my nails so that I can squeeze an in-fill appointment into my lunch break I feel like a princess! They shape the nails themselves and are also very talented at a variety of hand-applied nail art. Their prices are reasonable and I never feel it's too much of a chore to go, which is saying something seeing as I have the attention span of a flea and get bored easily. The salon next door looks flashier, but I felt like I had a really dedicated, personal experience here.

Like most nail bars that I've been to, I was initially intimidated by the (perceived) language barrier, but as I go there fairly often, I am realising they are probably just as intimidated. They are actually quite friendly, and often include customers on conversations between themselves. The customers are also quite friendly and often talk to each other. They are knowledgeable about what they do and offer good advice. I would definitely recommend them.

But I wasn't there to inspect the decor, so let's get down to the nitty gritty. Waxing is never pleasant and I, with a particularly low pain threshold, have always found bikini waxing to be something of a complete and utter nightmare! I usually book appointments and then chicken out at the last minute. I have been back to this place twice now, so that's saying something! The girl who did my wax was chirpy, competent and above all QUICK! Her name is Rene and she is definitely the best waxer I've ever been to. At £10, its also much cheaper than many other places in town! Now, let's return momentarily to the Pink Champagne Nail Bar. That's right, you can sip champagne whilst having your nails done. What will they think of next? So, if you want a manicure with a fancy twist, this is the place for you!

Massive regrets with my decision to get a lash lift and tint…read more I went in for a patch test, I had never had any eyelash treatment before, in earnest I asked "what could go wrong?" and the girl shook her head and said "nothing".. I think we all know there can be risks, so it would've been helpful to have this explained. I briefly spoke with a different lady who was going to do my treatment 3 days later and she did not ask any questions or take a look at the lashes (I.e consultation). She also was very persistent that I try a new product, I said several times I'd rather stick with the one that was tried and tested over time, especially as I'd never had anything done before. It actually felt uncomfortable that she kept insisting. I should have walked away then. I got patch tested for both, no problems. The day of the appointment she again insisted that I try the new product, despite me saying that I couldn't find much online in terms of reviews of the new one and wanting to stick with the existing one etc, then she tried to "blind me with science" as to why the new product was the one to use. I showed her some photos of where the new product had been used (taken from social media) and said I wasn't impressed. She said neither was she but it's to do with the technician and hers would not look like that. Again, I felt very pressured, she told me she had used it 4 or 5 times and was going to be teaching the trainers (hence why she needed to get her numbers up). I relented in the end. In discussing how I wanted it to look I said that I had seen some generic reviews online where they had curled too much back into a "C", and that I did not want this but to achieve a dramatic a look as possible without it going that far. I asked her for her opinion and said I don't really know what's best, but to do what she thinks would look the best. Procedure itself- this was really uncomfortable and it felt very rough. I did ask "is it supposed to sting?" and said my right eye was particularly bad, and she blamed me for scrunching eyes up (which I had not) and she then wiped it (which felt like eye was being sliced). It felt like she was pulling and tugging at my eye lashes quite hard, but I was not sure if that was normal or not. She asked if it felt better after wiping and I said um not really. Afterwards with the final look, I thought they looked a bit over curled, she said that next time she would do less lift, and she also said it was good they used the new product as the old one may have been too strong, and I have very fine lashes (good observation to make post treatment)!! I asked her if she was happy and she said she was. As quite a non-assertive person I said they were nice. As I was about to leave she wiped some dermologica nourishing serum over my eye and then instructed me to do it as well, the lashes on the inner left eye were clumped together and bending back. I said they were clumped and she said "oh remember, that was from where your eye was watering wasn't it" (it was the right eye that had been stinging, but ok). I left the place, thinking I could perhaps comb them through and separate, I just wanted to get out of there! All evening my eyes have been stinging especially the right one, I took an anti-histamine to see if it would help. Now on the morning after both eye lids are swollen, but especially the right one. The lashes look teeny tiny and have shrunk to less than they were before treatment. The inner lashes which are the most delicate are absolutely ruined. I'm very concerned the product was not removed properly. Unfortunately they are closed for 2 days now for bank holiday so I cannot speak to them about this. Overall, I'm absolutely gutted. I highly regret getting it done. Always follow your gut instincts, I wish I had.
