Existing clients!
Please book using the link provided in one of your previous booking emails. This ensures the system correctly recognises you as an existing client.
I'm a high-end manicurist and lash tech located in Hampshire.
As well as all the nail treatment techniques offered I also specialise in bespoke treatments, nail repairs and gel reintroduction after gel allergies. For more information visit my dedicated treatment pages.
My ethos is to provide strong healthy nails first and foremost, and then make them look pretty.
A bit about me
All services are provided with the Russian Manicure technique elevating the standard of manicures beyond your typical manicure treatments.
I have a passion for precision, nail health, and delivering consistently high-quality results. My approach is meticulous and detail-driven - I dedicate a significant amount of time to preparation and cuticle work, as I believe this is the foundation of long-lasting, refined nails.
I work using advanced techniques, including the Russian manicure method, and only use premium, professional products that meet my standards for performance and safety. Hygiene is a top priority for me, and every appointment is carried out with strict cleanliness protocols to ensure a safe and professional environment.
I take great pride in my craft and in providing a calm, considered experience for my clients. If you’re looking for a technician who values quality over speed and cares deeply about both the finish and the health of your nails, you’ll be in very safe hands.

Which manicure treatment is best for me?
Whether you've had manicures before, or are new to the treatment, hopefully this will help you choose which one to book! But don't worry, if in doubt you can contact me for advice on which treatment may be best for you! I'm on IG @thehampshiremanicurist or WhatsApp 07940774233
For Bio Sculpture options, please navigate to the Bio Sculpture page and read the info there.
Soft Gel Manicure - the standard 'base, colour, colour, top' procedure. It's the thinnest manicure possible for a nail polish look that lasts, but no strength is added.
Structured Soft Gel Overlay - a slightly thicker, stronger manicure. Uses a base gel plus a builder layer to add strength before the colour.
Hard Gel Manicure - The same as the Structured Soft Gel Overlay, except for two main differences. The product itself is acetone resistant so it cannot be soaked off, and at the end of the treatment the free-edge will be underfiled.
Hybrid technique - Combination method using soft and hard gel for strength reinforcement at the free edge and flexibility at the cuticle. Perfect for nails with weak or missing side walls, and trapezoidal nails.
Additionally, there are Russian Manicure and Gel Extensions options.
All treatments include a Russian Manicure (a specific type of prep that achieves the perfect photo-ready results shown in my pictures) but you can just have this treatment on it's own if you wish!
Or if you want extensions, you can choose Gel Extensions under the Manicure Treatments section.
All treatments assume solid colour
If you want French/Minimal design or Complex design please add the appropriate option to your booking from the Design Add-ons section.
This ensures the correct amount of time is allocated to your appointment and you get the most from your treatment.

Reviews
I am absolutely delighted with my gel manicure. The whole experience was outstanding! I have never had such a thorough professional manicure such as this. Madelaine is so professional and knowledgeable. The advice I received about looking after my nails and general nail health was a complete eye opener. I highly recommend Madelaine.
Judith Evans
Madelaine is a very competent and knowledgeable manicurist. Talked me through every step and explained it all clearly and concisly. Very conscious of hygiene so no fear of cross contamination All done with a genuine smile and wicked sense of humour Thank you, can't recommend you highly enough Pauline C
Pauline Challis
I came to Maddie with my nails being damaged from poor treatment. In the first consultation she told me that I had a condition where the nails were separating from the nail bed. She advised me on some treatment and in 3 weeks they cleared and my nails felt so much stronger! I’ve always been so conscious of my hands, but Maddie is helping me to fall in love with them again ☺️
Megan Campbell
As a new client of The Hampshire Manicurist in June 2024 and now a devoted regular my nails have never been better. Maddie is welcoming, friendly, professional, knowledgeable and thorough with the best aftercare advice. I always leave with a flawless manicure and in awe of her attention to detail. Maddie isn’t just any manicurist, she is a talented artist and the friend you never knew you needed.
Briony Crook
Maddie is by far the best nail tech I’ve ever had. Her work is so detailed and immaculate. My nails have grown super long and strong since I started going to her June 2024. We always go for fun colours, and her attention to detail is always second to none! X
Paige Joanna
I just love how many compliments I get on my nails now! Maddie always done such a thorough job and for the first time in my life my nails have length! She has worked with me to get the correct base for my gel so that my nails remain healthy and thrive. If you are looking for high quality nail care then look no further. Plus her own brand cuticle oil smells INCREDIBLE!
Kathryn Fenner
Maddie always does a fab job with my nails. She's very knowledgeable and approachable. If you want a personalised experience in a clean and inviting environment then look no further. I would highly recommend 👌
Sarah with Love
Amazing Manicurist who never fails to deliver! Highest standards and highest quality bio sculpture nails you will ever have! Nail art is off the scale crazy good! Been going to Maddy for years now
Sadie Baile-Roberts
Absolutely impeccable service from Madeline. My cuticles have never looked this good. Her patience, attention to detail, desire for perfection and her knowledge is outstanding. I wanted a gentle and paced intro back into gels and there was no pressure from her to jump in…. We agreed a plan and lots of advice to follow. Madeline herself is funny and warm and makes you feel very welcome. Looking forward to my next appointment
