Reviews

“I visit my Sydney acrylic nail technician every fortnight and have done so for 18 years, so when I needed to be in Melbourne for 6 weeks I had to find someone as good. I have a very strict criteria – must use Creative Product and must hand file – no electric files for me.

I put my criteria into Google and a few names came up but the numbers either didn’t answer or had terrible voicemails. I finally came across Julie and after a brief conversation decided to book 3 appointments, despite the fact her salon was 30 minutes away from where I was staying. Worth every kilometre and every minute of the travel.

Julie is truly professional and crafts her art well. Her studio is spotless and a beautiful space in which to be pampered. I also booked myself for a pedicure and if time had allowed I would surely have booked a facial, perhaps even a massage.

I thoroughly enjoyed Julie’s warmth and the many conversations we shared over the 6 weeks I was in Melbourne. I will definitely use Julie’s services again when in Melbourne and highly recommend her to you.”

“I have now been going to Hands of Elegance for 12 years – must be nearing 150 visits at Julie’s three different locations. McIlwraith Street is the best – ample parking, great salon and the usual fantastic service. It is a one stop shop for nails, waxing, eyebrows, manicures and pedicures and facials. The best bit is that Julie is a sole practitioner so you always know she will be doing your treatments. She is professional, thorough and very skilled. You leave feeling spoiled.

Having been talked into trying acrylic nails I have never looked back. They are elegant, natural looking and ensure my hands always look well cared for and manicured.

I wish you well Julie in your new location.”

“Julie at Hands of Elegance is a gem. Her service is excellent, her products are high quality and she knows her stuff. I highly recommend this salon. My artificial nails are natural looking and beautiful. I hate that chunky nail look I’ve received in other salons with milky acrylic that is not at all natural looking. One salon even tortured my cuticles and made them bleed. Julie’s service is second to none and I’ll definitely return.”

“I have been seeing Julie for a number of years – I walk in need of work and walk out looking beautiful! Got to love that! I love her professionalism and her ability to make you feel comfortable and really special. Love ya xoxo”

“Julie you are a legend”
