Rambling Rose is a private, boutique nail and make-up salon based in Mangawhai Heads, providing customised one-on-one manicure, pedicure, and make-up services for women. By appointment only. Feel free to bring pictures to your appointment, and a bespoke manicure or make-up look will be created for you.

Debbie qualified as a make-up artist in 2010 (CIBTAC), receiving a second qualification in make-up artistry in 2012 (ITEC), before qualifying as nail technician with Monaco Nail Academy in 2015. She uses high-quality, professional nail products from the Artistic Nail Design range which includes Colour Gloss gel polish, Artistic Putty (also known as PolyGel or acrygel), and Gel-On Xtensions, and Famous Names’ IBX Treatment to strengthen weak nails prone to breakages.

In her spare time, Debbie makes handmade jewellery and home dΓ©cor items, and writes novels – these can all be found on the Shop page.

Please use the quick links above for manicure and/or make-up price lists, or to book an appointment. Gift vouchers and all products sold in the salon – removal kits, nail files, cuticle oil, etc. – can all be found in the online store. If you’re looking for blog posts, articles, answers to FAQs, or any other information, please use the menu bar above, or the three horizontal stripes if you’re on a mobile device.

To see a portfolio of Debbie’s work, please have a look at the Rambling Rose Nails’s Facebook page or find @ramblingrosenails on Instagram.

Book online:

Gel polish pedicure = $65 Traditional polish pedic Gel polish pedicure = $65
Traditional polish pedicure = $55

Same service - both include nail tidy, dead skin removal, and a massage - the only difference is the type of polish used. 
So why is traditional polish is cheaper?  The bottle of polish costs less and it air dries, so there's no LED lamp used and no extra overhead cost included.

To anyone who has tried to get hold of me via the To anyone who has tried to get hold of me via the contact form on my website for nail appointments, make-up quotes, or jewellery orders and never received a response, I'm so sorry.  I was completely unaware that the Google form had stopped delivering responses to my email address - it was only brought to my attention by a client this morning.

It has been fixed now and I have managed to download all past responses, and will be in touch with everyone over the next week.

Do you have make-up and cosmetic products lying ar Do you have make-up and cosmetic products lying around half used because you don't like the feel, smell, or the colour is wrong?  Don't throw them out, try using them in a different way.

Not sure what I mean? Hair conditioner can be used instead of shaving gel. Lipstick can be used as blush, etc.
