My trip to The Chelsea Day Spa for a manicure*

Last week I was invited to visit The Chelsea Day Spa for a manicure.

The weather was absolutely horrible and I was pretty windswept when I arrived.

Thankfully I was greeted by a beautiful interior and staff with lovely warm smiles. 

The spa itself doesn’t look very big from the outside but they’ve managed to fit a lot in.

As I waited for my nail technician I browsed the treatments on offer and was pleasantly surprised.

As well as offering manicures & pedicures, you can also indulge in massages, facials, waxing and more.

I went for a New York Manicure – I was offered a pedicure, but you guys know I have a foot phobia.

I also had gel nails on at the time, so I had those soaked off for me, to prep my nails for the manicure.

Rodica was my manicurist, and she was absolutely lovely – I really can’t recommend her enough!

There were no awkward silences because she was so friendly and chatty, making it a great experience.

We chatted for the whole hour about Romania (her home country), the culture and history.

You know I’m a culture-nut so I thoroughly enjoyed this.

My manicure was flawless and looked amazing – almost like gels.

The shade range of polishes (normal & gel) was good, as is the brand they use – Jessica.

The polish lasted for a week before it started to chip, which I think is an achievement.

The service and final product were well worth the visit, and the money – only £17!

For the lovely surroundings, staff and manicure I would certainly visit again.
