If you're not well enough to be at work, you're no If you're not well enough to be at work, you're not well enough to be seated in front of me.

Please be responsible and reschedule your appointment if you're feeling unwell, or are looking after an ill partner, child or grandchild - even if it's just a scratchy throat - Covid is still doing the rounds and often starts with a scratchy throat.

Passing an illness on to me doesn't only affect me, it affects up to 15 clients whose appointments may have to be cancelled while I recover. 

Please be considerate this winter.

If you're wanting to give nail art a try, don't forget to book an appointment with nail art included ... I'll need the extra time allocated to the appointment to do your art.
