Nails By Alice White

After becoming a new mother last year, Alice Whitehouse decided to pursue her dream of a career in nails. Working from a newly converted home studio, Alice opened in time for the 2019 Christmas rush and business has soared since.

“We had a small lean-to room off the kitchen which I had a vision for,” remembers Alice. “I booked my training and went off to London to train while my husband was left to project manage the building of my soon-to-be salon. The revamp turned an old lean-to into a proper room with a beautiful  bright sky light.

“The salon has now been open since December 2019 and I hit the ground running with christmas nails! During lockdown I invested in Bio Sculpture products and I now will be exclusively using Bio Sculpture gel.

“I invest heavily in my products to give my clients the most luxurious experience possible,” continues Alice. “I recently made the decision to focus entirely on natural nails, so therefore offer gel overlays using Bio Sculpture Gel products.

“My priority is the health of the natural nail, so I love seeing nails transform from short, weak and thin to strong, long and beautiful.”

With its fun features of dalmatian print, the funky salon also sees washes of pink and white. “The salon has a relaxed and fun vibe,” Alice concludes. “I want my clients to feel welcome and enjoy their experience as well as their nails.”
