Excellent customer service is an understatement. Very talented nail art with a very personal tailored service. Goes above and beyond to make her clients comfortable and makes sure they are happy with results. Personal favourite is the pedicure with massage

I visited Alire’s studio for the first time this week and really liked. The space is so cosy and welcoming. I had my nails done with BIAB and was very happy with the attention to detail and the result. I would definitely recommend her services and will def be back!

I had such a lovely experience with Alire. We had been messaging weeks in advance about what style I wanted and she really understood what I was going for. Her creativity really shows in her work and my nails turned out so colourful and beautiful. I can’t wait for my next visit.

About
About Alire
At the heart of my work is a quiet obsession with detail, structure, and nail health. Based in Forest Gate, East London, I bring over two decades of professional experience to a practice that is as much about care as it is about beauty. I specialise in Russian manicure and pedicure techniques, BIAB, hard gel and polygel structure, and refined, bespoke nail art — treatments designed not only to look flawless on the day, but to grow out elegantly and protect the integrity of your natural nails.
My approach is slow, intentional, and highly meticulous. Clean cuticles, perfectly balanced structure, and a seamless finish are the signatures of my work. Every set is tailored to the individual — your lifestyle, your nail condition, your personal aesthetic — resulting in nails that feel as effortless as they look.
Before nails, I spent over twenty years in hospitality, and that legacy of care shapes every appointment. This is a calm, welcoming space where you are encouraged to pause, unwind, and be looked after. Thoughtful details, gentle conversation, refreshments, and an unhurried atmosphere are all part of the experience.
This studio is proudly inclusive — a safe space for all identities, bodies, and expressions. Here, beauty is not about perfection or trends, but about feeling seen, comfortable, and confident in your own hands.
To sit in my chair is to choose time, precision, and intention — and to leave with nails that are strong, elegant, and quietly transformative.
With love, Alire (she/her) ♡

Prescriptive Gel/BIAB manicure (Alire's signature service)
A high-performance, prescriptive manicure designed to create flawless, resilient, and naturally elegant nails that instantly elevate your hands. Expect impeccable structure, refined shaping, and a smooth, glossy finish that gives your nails that unmistakable freshly done look.
This treatment is tailored to each client. The base system — soft gel (BIAB) or hard gel — is professionally selected according to your natural nail condition, strength, and length to achieve the most balanced, durable result.
Soft gel (BIAB) typically lasts 2–3 weeks, while hard gel can last 3–4 weeks when properly maintained.
This service focuses on enhancing short to medium-length natural nails.
- What’s Included
• Detailed Russian manicure with meticulous cuticle work for a clean, precise foundation.
• A prescribed base system (soft gel / BIAB or hard gel) selected to strengthen and protect your natural nails.
• When hard gel is required, the service may include free-edge reinforcement, correction of missing corners, and up to two small nail extensions if necessary.
• Balanced structure and durability while maintaining a refined, natural aesthetic — ideal for short to medium lengths (free edge up to 1 cm).
• Choice of translucent base shades including milky white, milky pink, or nude.
• Gel colour of your choice (excluding cat-eye finishes, available under the nail art menu).
• A selection of effect top coats, including glitter, pearlescent, milky white, milky pink, and nude finishes.
• Finished with nourishing cuticle oil and hydrating moisturiser.
- Not Included (Add-Ons)
• Removal of existing foreign enhancements is not included. Please add a removal service when booking (additional charge applies).
• Nail art, including French tips, cat-eye, chrome, or other detailed designs.
- Important Notes
• This is a detailed, specialist service rather than a quick manicure. Please check the appointment duration when booking. If several nails require repair or correction, additional time may be necessary.
• A 3-hour appointment window is reserved to allow the necessary time for precision work.
• If you choose gel colour, please allow an additional 30 minutes.
• To maintain structure, appearance, and nail health, a rebalance every 3–4 weeks is recommended.

This service includes gel colour. All ten fingernails are finished in a uniform style. If multiple colours or additional cat-eye art are requested (for example, cat-eye hearts, swirls, weaves, or other advanced designs), this will be charged as additional nail art according to the pattern selected. These designs require extra time and technique, therefore pricing varies depending on the complexity of the chosen design.

Please note: The duration is an estimate, as foreign removals can be more complex. I take the necessary time and care to safely remove existing products without damaging your natural nails. For insurance reasons, all foreign material must be fully removed before my new service.
