Whether you have a special occasion coming up or just want to spoil yourself, Glasgow is well stocked with fabulous salons and technicians ready to preen and pamper. But finding the best of the bunch is difficult when there is so much choice. Here are three local favourites I'd recommend keeping note of:
BLOW arrived last summer into Glasgow's Finnieston area with a bang, offering a contemporary hair salon experience and plenty of va-va-voom. From their hand-picked menu of BLOW-dries (perfect for those who can't make up their mind), fully stocked bar and a team of stylists that offer completely bespoke cuts and colours, it's no wonder that BLOW have been recently shortlisted for a number of awards.
BLOW, 1060 Argyle Street, Finnieston.
In Glasgow, there is one name that is synonymous with immaculate manicures and intricate nail art - and that's Swoon Nails. Specialising in Calgel application at premier status, Swoon's nail technician Lia Clarke creates custom looks for her clients that last for weeks after the appointment. Swoon Nails are located in Central Chambers, right next to Glasgow's Central Station and have been featured in fashion shoots for magazines such as Hope St, No1, and The Scottish Wedding Directory. With an eye for style and an appointment book bursting with delighted clients, there's never been a better time to get 'doon the Swoon'.
Swoon Nails, Suite 331, 4th Floor, Central Chambers, 93 Hope Street.
