  “Lee was really fantastic and stayed past closing time to do my nails. The service was fast and everyone was very kind. It was very hot so he put the blinds down for me, offered me water - it was very kind. My nails are so beautiful I really like them! Definitely coming again.”

  “I visited Glow about 3 weeks ago. I walked in and was poorly greeted by my nail tech, what I tried to communicate was not translating and no other member of staff in the shop who could speak English was interested enough to bother to make sure it was. cut a long story short I wanted my natural nails with BIAB, however my left hand was all natural nail and my right hand all broken. However I didn't want to just have a type of nail that was gonna ruin my natural nail journey. So I asked if it was possible to preserve the left hand with natural nails using BIAB and give artificial extension to my right, so my natural nails could catch up. This somehow was understood by my nail tech, enough to be angry with me, when I noticed that the length of 2 of my right hand nails were not the same length as my left hand and could they be redone? She snapped and said - 'why didn't you just have extension for all???' I proceeded to explain agin and she proceeded to huff and puff and was very rough with handling my hands. As another woman of colour has said in her review, I have faced the same experience, I would like to validate your experience and tell you they definitely treat 'US' differently, you didn't imagine it. I had to laugh in my head when I realised what was happening. I did not give any attitude and thought considering I'm paying this much I at least should be 100% happy. she did as I asked after I said I will pay more if I need to ... It Dos'nt end there, bare in mind I was on my own in the shop - I had all three standing around me after my nails were done and try to bully me into getting a completely different colour to what I wanted to match my toes ...also bare in mind, I asked if I could just have a base colour on my toes that was the same as what I had on my fingers with the same gold metallic and I was told no, we have no more pink and the metallic will rub off anyway. (anyone who hasn't been there, there is a whole wall covered in bottles of NAIL GEL COLOURS. I was told by Lee to just have some brown bronze collar he tried to put under my nose, he then kept saying French tip? and numerous times I politely said no, id like the pink I have on my fingers on my toes or anything close to that pink, they said they only had this pink that seemed very pale but by this point I was over it and just thought as long as it paints well i'll take it.. A young lad proceeds to begin my pedicure and when he gets to painting my toe nails he did not do appropriate layyering. The pink they pushed on me to have instead as a 'compromise' was very pale and when he said he had finished you could still see my toe nails. So again I politely asked if they had at least a darker shade or could he put on some more layers to make it solid and bold? he proceeded to say 'you chose this pink', I then had to say 'nnnooo you pushed this on me' he then swore under his breath in his language. he did something and nothing as my toe nails are still uneven and look terrible. After telling me, they only take cash before my toes are dry he came and swooped in with a CARD machine and charged me £80 - never again will I go there and any ladies of colour with 'Attitude' I say this loosely ofc - beware!!”

  “I’ve been coming to this salon for around two years, and it’s really disappointing to say that the service has significantly declined in the last few months. There used to be a lovely lady working that had impeccable customer service I believe she is now off on maternity leave. The manager is often aggressive towards staff, including shouting at female workers in front of customers, which creates a very uncomfortable atmosphere. More concerning, there is a clear difference in how customers are treated. I have repeatedly been told certain nail designs are “too expensive” or pushed to choose something simpler, while other customers who are not of colour are given time, attention, and intricate designs without hesitation. It feels dismissive and discriminatory, and it’s not acceptable. My last appointment I decided to put my foot down and be specific with the design I wanted to which the nail tech scoffed and laughed?? There have also been multiple occasions where staff respond to requests by speaking in their own language, laughing or again scoffing. Even without understanding the language, it’s obvious from the tone that the customer is being discussed, which is disrespectful and unprofessional. In 2026, treating people differently or making assumptions based on race is completely unacceptable. My last three visits have all been negative, and I won’t be returning.”

  “My mother's regular nail salon, she travels half way across Birmingham to get her nails done here and they always look smashing! Staff are always very friendly and highly professional. She's been to several different salons and this one is definitely the best.”

  “I’ve been a loyal customer at Glow Beauty Bar for two years, and I couldn’t be happier with their service. The staff are always welcoming and friendly, creating a warm atmosphere every time I arrive. Lee, who usually does my nails, is exceptional—his meticulous attention to detail is truly impressive. After my nails weakened from acrylics, Lee recommended BIAB, and it’s been a game-changer. I haven’t looked back since!”
