Best nails of my life! Such a beautiful studio and great chilled vibe. Loved the Ghibli films playing and unbelievably cute puppy Layla. Thank you so much Natasha for doing mine and my sisters nails, we love them so much ♥️

I had the most amazing service at fuego nails! There was such a warm welcoming environment in the studio and my nails were treated with such care and attention. I received exactly what I asked for but BETTER! I cannot stop looking at my gorgeous nails - they are a work of art!

About
I offer a professional and attentive service; ensuring you leave with glistening fingertips and a huge smile every time. Specialising in nail art, I’m known for bringing your ideas to life and creating designs that are perfectly tailored to you. “Wearable art can signify the connection between a person’s inner being and their physical identity. Nails serve as an extension of the persona and, for Blake, they are canvases to map out the complex universes of someone’s character. For the wearer, they are personal emblems of courage and aspiration. For Blake, they are dreams and visions made real.” — Dazed Beauty interview, 2019
Beyond the art itself, I value the relationships I have with my clients— it’s important for me to make sure you feel seen, heard, and understood. “Natasha has created a space where empowerment is the name of the game, giving everyone who comes to see her a safe space to talk and crafting dream-worthy talons for their fingers.” — Hunger Magazine interview, 2021
Whether you're looking for a bold statement, a delicate design, or something entirely unique to you, I’m here to bring your vision to life ❤️
Info
Do I need to know what nail art I want before the appointment? No, this isn’t necessary. Only when booking your service do you need to know which pricing tier to choose and this determines the intricacy of the design! If you know which tier you’d like, but not sure what design - don’t fret, I have a plethora of designs up my sleeve! If you don’t know which tier to book but know what design you’d like - get in touch!
How long do your nails last? The average period for my clientele is 4-6 weeks. BIAB and hard gel is the strongest service and in most cases clients come back to me even after 8 weeks. Apres Gel-x extensions typically last around 3-5 weeks. Check out my ‘LONGEVITY’ highlight on instagram for client pictures and videos.
What is BIAB and hard gel? BIAB is a soft gel formula that is applied to the base of the nail after prep to strengthen and uphold the natural nail, allowing for consistent growth as well as protection of your gel nail art/polish. Don’t be fooled by the ‘soft’ part, it’s just how we nail techs differentiate between the two sectors of gel, hard gel and soft gel (it’s all in the removal). You will need to book a hard gel underlay when your nails have grown approximately over 4mm in length. This is because BIAB is flexible which allows for movement with the natural nail plate. However hard gel is not as flexible, and is required for longer nails
What do I do if I want to remove the nails? Always, always come back to me! I used the products, so I know how to remove it! Simples
