About Home of Beauty
Nail work leads the service list at Home of Beauty, a beauty salon on Watford Rd in Birmingham. The treatment side is built around gel nails, with BIAB applications and soak-off gel manicures that lift the old gel before the nails are shaped and reapplied. Appointments are recommended and can often be booked for the same day, and walk-ins may be accepted. Several nail technicians work at the salon, so clients may see different members of the team from one visit to the next. A wait past the booked time is possible while another set of nails is finished.

Customer Review Summary
Gel manicures are what brings most reviewers back, and the durability is the detail they return to: several report nails lasting three to four weeks without chipping, and one describes a set surviving a holiday of pool and sea fully intact. Speed comes up too, with one client having old gels soaked off, nails shaped and a full gel manicure finished within half an hour. A walk-in singles out the attention to detail on a BIAB appointment. The owner draws particular praise for following any pattern brought in and inventing her own, and reviewers point to the wide colour range, the loyalty card scheme and a beauty room upstairs. Several call the salon calm and the staff pleasant, with one having gone there around thirteen years. The recurring complaint is waiting: two note being kept waiting despite booking, one while another client's nails were done.
