They were able to accommodate is as a no-notice walk-in. The staff were lovely. And it seems the owner is pretty cool, too. It was International Women’s Day, and she’d laid a rose at the workstations of all the staff.read more

I’ve been coming here for both nails and waxing for the past couple of years, and it’s always been a consistently good and reliable place. All the technicians are really pleasant and good at what they do, so I tend to try to stop by here when I’m in the city centre and need nails/waxing doing.read more

Highly recommend staff Rachele, who is a competent and professional nail artist.My nail was handled to another staff at the start. It went quite disappointing due to the lack of careful treatment and manicure skills, which ended up with messy dead skins and cuticle scratching.The staff immediately responded to my concern, swapping to Rachele who eventually completed my nail. The experience went absolutely fantastic since then, and the finish product definitely meets my satisfaction.HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place and Rachele as I appreciate their professional skills as well as attitude in dealing with situation like this.read more

I would 100% recommend Janea nails (both branches!) to anyone looking for a consistent place to go to for waxes, nails and other treatments. I did the wax, manicure and pedicure.For the wax, I had Rachele, who not only did an amazing job on quickly waxing my face and legs, but making sure I was happy with the results and advising on different hair removals. She also made sure to explain or give her thoughts on what would be best for my face, and whether it was necessary to wax my entire face.For the deluxe manicure and pedicure, I had the amazing Kiki. The pedicure was very thorough and I was given a lot of tips on at-home self care to do and my feet are very smooth now! For the manicure, my nails were ruined from another nail place and Kiki gave advice on what gel she could do (between BIAB and normal Gel), and went the extra mile to make sure my nails were even, cared for and gave aftercare advice on what to do to maintain my nails, as they were worn down a lot from a previous place (not Janea!!!).Overall, Janea’s staff were lovely, treated me with a lot of care and respect but aldo didn’t try to push anything on me that I didn’t want to try or buy. They instead provided a lot of helpful advice on what to look out for in terms of nail care, how to properly remove my gel, and which ges are best to use for what situation.This is now going to be my go-to nail and beauty place!!!read more

Went for the first time yesterday for BIAB and nail art, I had Catherine and she was amazing. I had an example of the nail art I wanted and wasn’t sure if it was achievable (I think they were stickers in the photo I had) but Catherine got it spot on I couldn’t be happier. Thank you!read more

I’ve been going to Janea on King Street every 3 weeks, if not more often for well over a year and I have always had the best experience. The finish is great, the girls always take their time/ I’ve never felt rushed and the booking process couldn’t be easier. I’ve even booked my family & friends in and they love it too.read more

Lovely nail tech nail polish finish a let down. Let down has my 1st time at salon and was a birthday treat for myself. Polish one my toes after 4 hours. Had my toes repolised by a nice nail tech called Aine. Excellent. I appreciate Janea nails putting a smile back on my face. Thank you 😊read more

Great salons! I’ve been to both sites and I love them both, always such a nice chilled atmosphere – not too noisy and staff will leave you to relax if you’re not feeling too chatty (something that always makes me anxious at salon appointments) Gel pedicure in particular is always a lovely experience. Highly recommend.read more

The finish of the nails was great, but I got the impression they where rushing. I could see the person who came after me and they seem book their appointments back to back. Still it was clean, they serve drinks that you can buy too and they offer loyalty discounts. They also don’t use electric tools which is great and they do very good removals. I.e they don’t rip off nails, they actually soak them off which is great and not all salons do.read more

Clean place but the vibe was strangeAsked an opinion on what I should get and staff were quite rude not recommending much and basically made me feel like an idiot for not knowing what BIAB was (chapel walks)Went to the king street one and again staff were giving me weird looks and the general energy was offThey’re ok for nails not amazing but need to work on their customer serviceAlso really picky about time and criticised me for booking the wrong treatment online ?Paying to get my nails done not to be looked at like I’m annoying booking the wrong time and asking for advice lol it was a blonde girl at chapel walks (not the one with glasses she was lovely)Be nice to your clients! It makes a world of a differenceIf you hired nice staff it would really make the place appealingread more

Unfortunately I had a bad experience at Janea nails yesterday. I came early was in a great mood and pre booked my nail biab removal and new set of gels. When I arrived I didn’t feel very welcomed and when I asked if I could have an extension for a nail that had broken (which I have regularly asked for at nail salons no problem) my technician said “she didn’t have time” which I found very odd as I have pre booked my time with her in advance and even arrived 5 minutes earlier. She was reluctant to add an extension making my nails odd- she then spent 1.45hr doing not a great job at removing my BIAB. I wanted natural looking gel nails and the pink colour looked very unnatural on my skin tone I voiced my concern as soon as she did one nail and she reassured me the colour would change after filling. It didn’t. I said I didn’t like the colour and she said I should have said something earlier. I ended up leaving with only 9 nails semi done in an awful pink colour, the one I needed the extension left bare after nearly 2 hours. So disappointing and it really bought me down when as a regular nail client getting my nails done normally is such a lovely experience. I still paid and left with my nails unfinished. I had to pay for them to be removed somewhere else. I won’t be going to Janea nails again.read more

I came in here for gel extensions. The standard of finish was ok but not perfect. However, given the price point I was expecting a better finish. The customer service is good and they didn’t use any electric tools on my nails which was great but the work itself could be better if the prices are going to compete with other better nail salons.read more

Amazing experience!I booked last minute after getting my nails done elsewhere in the morning and them being awful and needing fixing. Janea booked me in, fixed my nails and were lovely throughout. I felt so comfortable, they kept checking that the length and design were what I wanted. Fantastic all round. Will be coming back!read more

Janea was really really good when it opened but it has gone a bit downhill recently. The last few times I’ve been it’s been really rushed, the girls seem annoyed to be doing my nails and they rush so much they actually hurt your nails! Also they just don’t look as good as they used to, you could do a similar standard yourself. This is not reflective of all the girls there, but on the whole the standard has definitely declined.read more

AVOID.I only used the waxing service. If you don’t want to ruin your summer holiday, AVOID. I believe it is a combination of factors: the room did not have enough light, so I have parts where the wax was not used, the wax is of poor quality, and perhaps the technique was incorrect. Worst of all, I trusted the person to look after me and was left disappointed. I can go to the beach, two days after my appointment, and my summer holiday is ruined, so AVOID.read more

Wasn’t a good experience at all and I won’t be back.Nails are thick, lumpy and uneven. I also had to change my colour half way through as they ran out of the colour she was using on me.I paid £37 for them and they look like they cost me £15, if even. I understand people have bad days etc but for all the awards they’ve won, the service should be 10/10. I am very disappointed:(read more

Very expensive manicure and it wasn’t worth it. After 4 days of having my nails done, the gel nail polish started to come off. I feel that the quality of the products they use is not the best.Won’t go again and won’t recommend it.Cheap products and extremely overpriced. It doesn’t look professional. Very poor “french manicure” if it can be called that way.read more

This was my second time visiting Janea, and I booked an appointment for the Gel-X APRÉS Gel Nail Extensions. I was greeted by Eloise, picked my colour (‘petal’ – a dusty, light pink), and was then greeted by my lovely manicurist, Chloe. I am in love with my manicure, and what made it even better was the warm, personable environment of the salon! I couldn’t recommend Janea more if you are looking for a quality manicure and lovely service! 🙂read more

The salon has a really nice atmosphere and the staff are lovely. Would really recommend coming here!read more

I’ve been to Janea a few times now and don’t see myself needing to go anywhere else for nails now! The staff are all incredibly friendly and know what they’re doing. The salon is clean, spacious, and comfortable.I’m pretty clueless about things like Gel Extensions, but Eloise explained how it worked really clearly, and was sure to ask me exactly what I wanted each step of the way. I always walk out completely happy with how my nails look, which has never been the case elsewhere.Every service is worth the price, you will really be looked after here.read more

I went the first time doing nails with gel and nail art extensions, it was amazing and I was very well received! However a week later three of my nails left on their own! It was fixed and this second time was not well received, in addition to fixing my nails with a fake nail extension (my extension was all gel which was the service that I applied). In the end they still had the can to charge me for the nail arrangement! (It was only a week ago) To make matters worse when I got home I saw that I had one nail bigger than the other! Horrible service! Low quality material! I do not recommend!read more

This is the only place I will go for mani/pedis! Chloe does a beautiful job every time I’m there, picking out cool funky colour combos that I would have never tried if it weren’t for her and now I can’t just go with only one colour! The entire team at Janea are all very pleasant and friendly, making you feel comfortable and relaxed on every visit. They keep the place looking fresh and spotless and work safely with masks and shields. Their online booking system is convenient and easy to use and their opening hours are extensive and accommodating for those with busy work schedules. I highly recommend Janea Nails & Waxing for your pampering needs!read more

Had been coming here for years and loved the place so I put 200 pounds behind the counter for my treatments for the month. It was my first time at the new location and I had the worst time and don’t want to return. The staff are well aware I am allergic to all nail treatment and take anti histamines to make sure I can use them. I am especially allergic to tips and the glue etc. I specifically asked for gel pot because of this and when I arrived even though my other nails were all fully gel the lady tried to put a tip on me, argued that it wasn’t on the notes (when I checked after it was) and then said it’s fine and proceeded to do it correctly. This is just pure laziness. She made me feel so uncomfortable during my whole appointment and I never want to come back again. It’s not worth giving myself an allergic reaction for this kind of service so I asked for a refund for the 130 I hadn’t spent yet. I kept the poor service quiet as I didn’t want to make a fuss and now they’re saying I have to send pics to prove for a refund???? Making me jump hoops to get one. Attached is a pic of the lack of effort the lady put into my nails as shown with my thumbs which are two completely different sizes. Used to be amazing now I wouldn’t recommend to anyone. Give me my refund..read more

Excellent salon in a good edge of the city centre location. Brilliant opening hours including late nights and sundays. Staff are always helpful and kind. I have had intimate hot wax here which was done very well and at a good price. The salon is very clean and tidy with a calm atmosphere. I have also had pedicures here which have been brilliant. It’s a nice touch that you can buy a glass of Prosecco to enjoy with it and a 2 for 1 offer at certain times. The staff are all very friendly and really seem to appreciate and value their customers. I have and will continue to recommend this salon to family and friends.read more

I was warmly greeted and the place was cosy and tidy but I am very disappointed with the manicure and pedicure. The whole experience took longer than expected and the result was quite poor. The polish was applied too thick, bubbled, didn’t dry properly and was already ruined (not even 2 hours later.) They were very professional and reapplied the polish but the end result was quite the same (even worse) because they tried to use acetone and then decided to apply one extra layer on top of the smudged nail polish whilst they were blaming the heat for the inconvenience.The pedicure also did not include proper callus scraping.Poor quality and bad experience.read more

Also a very central salon.read more

At Janea I have received manicures and pedicures from Eloise and Adel. I’m always worried when going to new salons in case they don’t have the colour selection I want, or won’t be able to do the designs I want. If you have these problems I would definitely recommend Janea as the girls have an amazing gel bottle colour selection and always step up to the designs I want, and the studio is always immaculate. I’m looking forward to coming back again for more treatments in the future. Thank you so much girls, see you soon!read more

I have been going to Janea since they opened and had a number of the girls do my nails and I am always happy with the result. My nails are getting stronger after every visit and are no longer breaking. They all take a lot of care when removing my gels and treating my cuticles. They have a fantastic range of colours and always are able to accommodate any design I come in wanting. Shout out to Eloise who steps up to every nail art challenge so far. The salon itself is always very clean and is nicely decorated. Couldn’t recommend them all enough.read more
