About
Helo,
I’m Alire and welcome to my space, where beauty meets care and community.
I am an experienced nail technician based in Forest Gate, East London, offering over 20 years of professional expertise in nail care. I specialise in Russian manicure and pedicure techniques, gel nails, including BIAB (Builder in a Bottle), and bespoke nail art tailored to your individual style and personality.
My approach to client care is deeply rooted in over two decades of experience within the hospitality industry. This background informs my commitment to creating a warm, detail-oriented, and comforting experience for every person who walks through my door. Clients are always welcomed with kindness, and refreshments — including snacks and soft drinks — are thoughtfully provided.
I also hold a degree in Geography and am currently in an ongoing Master’s program in Urban Geography. My academic work complements my professional ethos, as both reflect a deep sensitivity to the social, spatial, and emotional dimensions of everyday life. Whether you’re here to express yourself through nail art or simply to take a pause for self-care, you are wholeheartedly welcome.
I look forward to welcoming you into my chair for a set of lovingly crafted nails.
All identities, bodies, and souls are safe and celebrated here ∞♥
With love,
alire (she/her)

Absolutely wonderful experience with Alire. I have no idea about nails and she was happy for me to come in and for her to remove the gels I had done somewhere else. I then had a Russian manicure which was great. The place is super super clean and she makes you feel SO welcome. I would 100% recommend her and will definitely be going back to her for all my nail needs. Her prices are also great and she is so easy to chat to, you feel relaxed and right at home

I sent my Mum to Alire for her birthday, and she had such a wonderful experience. She said she had great fun, a relaxing time and that Alire was very professional. I am really happy that she looked after her and gave her a birthday to always remember!
