I am using both Glamorous Nails and Beauty@999, both great.


Beauty@999 is very good value for money and they do excellent job.

Glamorous Nails is definitely more established business and it can be more social experience, especially on Saturdays.

I am a fan of Lyttle Minx, used to go to their salon over in Gypsy Hill before they opened their Lordship Lane branch.


Their deluxe pedicures are the best - they really work to get all the hard skin off your feet as well as doing the usual nail work. Manicures are also good.

Why not call them and explain what happened, am sure they will fix it.

Go for Glamorous. I'm so surprised at the praise for 999 - I've been three times and always had problems - poor cuticle removal, varnish on the skin, chipping varnish the next day. For the extra few pounds, Glamorous offer a perfect service - attention to detail, never varnish on the skin, etc.

I used to love 999 beauty but was very disappointed by my most recent visit. I went for a manicure and pedicure the week before last and felt like the standards of hygiene there are fairly lacking. The staff are very pleasant and the manicure and pedicure I received looked nice at the end but there were two things that really bothered me about my visit. Firstly, during my pedicure, when the lady was buffing my toenails she buffed too hard and grazed the skin, causing my toe to bleed. The buffer was not new (it had clearly been used before) and instead of taking any action to disinfect the cut she just carried on as if nothing had happened, and used a brush to paint cuticle oil over the area which is obviously not disinfected between clients. This lack of hygiene could easily cause customers to pick up infections. Then, when I had the manicure, the (different this time) manicurist had a terrible cold. Obviously it's not his fault he has a cold but I didn't enjoy receiving a manicure from someone who was constantly coughing/sneezing/sniffing as I didn't want to catch it.


I really used to love this place and have never written a bad review online before but I do feel strongly that the hygiene standards at 999 beauty need to be improved. Although my manicure/pedicure looked nice at the end for these reasons I won't be returning there and wouldn't recommend it to others.

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
