Services
Acrylic Nails
Our acrylic nail services include full sets, infills, and custom designs using high-quality EMA-based products. Clients can choose from classic, French, or ombre styles. The process involves shaping, cuticle care, and polish application, ensuring durability and elegance. Ideal for those seeking long-lasting, low-maintenance enhancements.
Nail Art
From simple patterns to intricate 3D embellishments, our nail art service offers limitless creativity. Options include diamant, chrome, dried flowers, and bespoke illustrations. Each design is applied with precision, using premium materials to ensure vibrancy and longevity. Perfect for special occasions or unique everyday looks.
Shellac Manicure
Shellac manicures combine the shine of gel with the ease of polish. Services include cuticle care, shaping, and application of long-lasting, chip-resistant colour. Options range from solid hues to French tips. The treatment lasts up to two weeks, maintaining a glossy finish without damage to natural nails.
Luxury Pedicure
Our luxury pedicure includes callus removal, foot scrub, and massage with hydrating oils. Clients choose between shellac polish or a natural finish. The service addresses dryness and roughness, leaving feet soft and rejuvenated. Ideal for both regular maintenance and special occasions.
Builder Gel
Builder gel (BIAB) strengthens natural nails or extends them with lightweight, flexible enhancements. Available in full sets or infills, options include French tips and ombre effects. The formula resists lifting and yellowing, offering a healthier alternative to traditional acrylics with a natural, glossy finish.

I visited Flamingo beauty and as a person who regularly does nails and nail art, would say this nail salon offers basic operations. If you want nail art and design I would visit a more specialised establishment. Service was average, similar to service received at a fast food chain (without the speed).

I love my nails but recently haven't had the best experiences as my nails kept breaking. However, staff are wonderful and always willing to help and they do wonderful jobs at creating some beautiful nails.
