TERMS & CONDITIONS

  • Services in this salon are for women only.
  • Gel polish and enhancements will not be applied to anyone under the age of 16.
  • There is a strict NO CHILDREN policy in the salon, as various harmful chemicals and breakables are within reach.

For more info about this, please read the article on the website called “Why you shouldn’t bring children to your appointment”.
  • No wet services are offered in this salon (hand/foot soaks or scrubs).

  • If you are sick, please cancel or reschedule your appointment.
  • If you are running a few minutes late, please send me a text and let me know.
  • If you arrive 15 minutes (or more) late for an appointment, you will have to reschedule your appointment and the late notice fee (mentioned below) will apply.
  • If there is a problem with your gel polish or enhancements within 3 days of your original appointment date, it will be repaired for free, as long as no ‘foul play’ is suspected.
  • Outside of the 3 day period, you will need to pay the necessary repair fee mentioned on the price list. Repair appointments are subject to availability.
  • Please follow the after care advice in the sheet given to you at your first appointment. If you’ve lost this it can be found here: “How to maintain your manicure”

CANCELLATIONS & NO SHOWS

  • Cancellations or rescheduling must be done at least 24 hours in advance.
  • Any cancellations with less than 24 hours notice will incur a fee of 50% of the booked service, which must be paid before you can book your next appointment.
  • If you do not show up for an appointment (and do not cancel or reschedule in time), you will be liable for the full amount due for service/s booked. This will need to be paid in full before you can book your next appointment. For more info, please read “Why I charge even if you don’t show up.“

Closed on Wednesday & Sunday.
Book online:

Do you feel confident applying your own make-up? Do you feel confident applying your own make-up? 
No? Want to learn? ... Book a consultation. 

Express Consultation (per person) | $80.00 | 1 hour
Designed specifically for those who want to learn a certain technique, or to perfect something that may already be known but can’t quite get right.  This is not a full consultation, we will only concentrate on the specific technique, for example: winged liquid or gel eyeliner – we would work on application of winged eyeliner, nothing else – no other make-up application.  This consultation can be used for anything from  learning how to apply eyeshadow to get a ‘Smokey Eye’ look; how to correctly apply blusher or lipstick; how to apply false lashes, etc. The choice is yours.

Full Consultation (per person) | $150.00 | 2 hours
Designed for those who would like to learn how to apply a full face of make-up correctly. These consultations are great for someone new to using make-up, or someone who feels a little daunted by all the products.

The consultation includes a simple skin assessment, an overview of your current cosmetics to assess whether they are correct for your skin type, and advice on what products would be best suited to your skin type and tone.  Step-by-step application of your choice of make-up (daywear, smokey eye, or a look you’ve seen in a magazine). If its something you’ve seen in a magazine or online, please bring the picture with you. I’ll also answer any questions that you may have. 

All consultations are one-on-one as I have limited space. This also ensures that you each get the individual attention that you need, and that you learn as much as possible.

$34.80 + courier fees for a brand new paperback.
Order online:  https://www.ramblingrose.co.nz/product/the-secret-to-eye-catching-nails/

The Secret to Eye-catching Nails contains tips, tricks, and step-by-step how-to guides, with 53 designs for you to learn from. Novices needn’t worry, because the chapters flow from one into the other, using what was learned in the previous chapter to help create designs in the next, and most are really simple to recreate.

From understanding colour, colour schemes and mixing colours, to tools of the trade and various nail art mediums, this book covers it all. It includes working with pigments, chrome, creating ombré colour fades, various stamping techniques (as well as a few TikTok hacks), how to create different types of French manicures, use nail art foils, decals and glitter, as well as how to hand paint nail art. Debbie shares what she’s learned from experience, in the hopes that it will help encourage novice and new graduate nail techs to think outside the box and do unexpected things on their own nail art journeys.
