About

Nail Theory is a one-desk nail studio on Park Row in Bristol. BIAB and gel are the bread and butter, with hand-painted art when you want something that is actually yours - chrome, french with a twist, or a tiny design nobody else has. The boring bits matter most here: proper prep, tidy cuticle work and shapes that flatter your hands, so a set lasts the full three to four weeks without lifting. One client at a time, no double-booking, your appointment is yours.

Chrome edge on a soft almond french - the set I could do every day and never get bored of. BIAB underneath for strength, three weeks easy.
Left: natural nail. Right: BIAB overlay, no extension. Strength without the bulk - if your nails peel or snap, this is the answer, not acrylic.
Forty minutes of tiny brushwork on this one. Bring me a curtain, a dress, a postcard - I will put it on a nail.
Park Row studio update: shelves up, plants in, new lamp at the desk. Small space, big difference.
Doing three bridal parties this spring. If you want matching sets (or deliberately not-matching sets) for a 2026 wedding, message me early - weekends go fast.
Four years since I left the salon floor and opened my own desk. Still the best decision I ever made. Thanks for trusting me with your hands, Bristol.
