We didn’t expect to get a stitch from laughing so hard at The Nail Spa. ‘You would like some nail art? Perhaps some minions? When the Universal film Despicable Me first came out, I was drawing minion after minion. Ba, ba, ba, banana!’

Our bubbly nail therapist has driven for an hour to show us The Nail Spa’s new fashion and bridal treatments. But if cartoon movie characters don’t set the right tone for newlyweds, then there are 150 alternative shades to choose from for the Bio Sculpture Gel treatment.

 ‘Set aside your angelic face and be wicked! Go for black and red nails,’ our therapist jokes, but fear of channelling Cruella de Vil leads us to play it safe with beautiful pastel, lilac nails instead.

Initially, we are startled that the Bio Sculpture session could take up to three hours, but thankfully the complex process, designed to improve strength and natural growth, is carried out efficiently in 90 minutes.

First, our nails are filed, buffed and the cuticles pushed back. ‘Your nails are injured,’ announces our therapist, who applies silk strips to two of ours to strengthen them.

‘Time for surgery,’ she jokes, pinging on a set of rubber gloves and applying a sticky template under each nail, before rolling each into a pointy cone shape.

Next, the white Bio Sculpture Gel is carefully painted with a fine brush over the nail and onto the cone for extra length. Our therapist takes extra care to apply the gel evenly.

However, we are required to set the gel under a UV light and experience a deep burning sensation as the gel bonds to the nail. We are reassured this is normal, but we hastily withdraw our hand several times as it is very unpleasant.
