Nails and Pedicure in King’s Cross
Our salon is on Caledonian Road, a 5-minute walk from King’s Cross station. We are open every day, 10:30 AM – 9:00 PM. Manicures, pedicures, gel and extensions, from a 15-minute tidy-up to a spa manicure and pedicure together.
Every option below shows its length and its price. Tapping one opens WhatsApp with those details already written, so you can ask about a time without filling in a form.
Classic, spa, gel or extensions
A classic manicure is shape, cuticles and a tidy finish. A spa manicure adds an exfoliating scrub, a mask and a hand massage, and takes about twice as long. The same difference applies to the pedicures.
Gel is cured under a UV lamp and stays glossy for 2 to 3 weeks, which is why most people choose it over polish for hands. Polish is quicker and easier to change at home, and it is the better choice if you like a different colour every fortnight.
Extensions come as acrylic or fibre gel, both at the same price. After about 3 weeks the usual next appointment is an infill rather than a new set, which costs less and is kinder to the nail underneath. If you arrive with gel or extensions from elsewhere, we can remove them and start fresh in one booking.

Making it last
Gel is set hard when you leave, so there is no drying time. Polish needs a careful hour, and we would rather you sat with a tea than caught a nail on a coat sleeve.
Cuticle oil once a day does more for how a manicure ages than anything else. Picking gel off takes the top layer of the nail with it, which is what leaves nails thin — book a removal instead, it takes 15 minutes.
Tell your therapist if a nail is sore, lifting, or has changed colour, and we will look before we work. Anything that needs a doctor rather than a salon, we will say so.
