Most requested
Three things people come in for
These are the requests that come up again and again at a nail studio. Availability, timing and price are always confirmed by phone.
-
01
Everyday nail care
A manicure or pedicure to tidy up, reshape and finish with a colour you'll actually wear to work on Monday.
-
02
Colour and painted detail
A single strong colour, French tips, or fine hand-painted lines. Bring a photo and you can talk through what's realistic for your nails.
-
03
Nails for an occasion
Weddings, graduations and birthdays. If several people are coming, call a few days ahead so the time can be planned properly.
"Call first. Hours aren't posted online, and a two-minute call saves a wasted trip."
The studio's Google listing gives a map pin and a phone number, but no published opening hours or price list. Rather than guess, we'd rather you asked.
Before your first visit
Small things that make the appointment easier
Nothing here is complicated. It's the sort of thing a regular would tell you in the chair.
- Ring ahead. The studio's hours aren't published, so a call is the only reliable way to know someone is in.
- Bring a reference photo. A picture on your phone says more than a description, especially for shape and colour.
- Ask the price before you sit down. Nothing is listed online, so ask on the call and you'll know exactly where you stand.
- Leave a little extra time. First appointments and nail art usually take longer than a plain colour.
Ready when you are
Send a request through the form, or call the studio directly. A request isn't a confirmed booking — the studio will tell you what's free.
Services & enquiries
What you can ask for
Mercy Beauty Studio is listed on Google Maps as both a nail salon and a beauty salon. The full treatment list, price list and product brands aren't published anywhere we could verify, so this page groups the requests people most often bring — and every one of them is a phone call away from a definite answer.
What's confirmed: the business name, the salon categories (nail salon, beauty salon), the phone number and the map pin. What isn't: prices, treatment durations, brands, and which specific services are offered on any given day. Please ask rather than assume.

Manicure
Shape, tidy the cuticles and finish with a colour. Ask which finishes are available and how long to allow before you book a slot.
-
NailsEnquire about this
Pedicure
Usually a longer appointment than a manicure. Ask about soak, scrub and finish options when you call, so the time set aside is right.

Colour and painted detail
A single colour, French tips, or hand-painted detail. Bring a photo — it's the fastest way to agree on what you want.

Repairs and reshaping
A chipped corner, uneven lengths, a nail that needs rebuilding. Ask what can be done on the day and what needs a longer visit.
-
OccasionEnquire about this
Weddings and group sets
Matching sets for a wedding party, graduation or birthday. Groups need planning — call a few days ahead rather than turning up together.

Beauty services
The listing covers beauty as well as nails. Which beauty treatments are offered isn't published, so ask directly — we won't guess on your behalf.
How it works
From enquiry to appointment
- Call the studio Tell them the service, roughly when you'd like to come in, and whether it's your first visit.
- Get the time and the price Ask what it costs and how long it takes before you commit. Both are confirmed on the call, not online.
- Turn up with your reference A photo of the shape and colour you want saves a lot of back-and-forth once you're in the chair.
A note on prices
No price list is published for Mercy Beauty Studio, so this site doesn't show one. Prices can depend on the service, the length of your nails and the finish you choose. Ask for a figure when you call — that's the only number worth relying on.
Reference library
Signature styles
A picture is the easiest way to explain what you want. Use these photographs to point at a shape, a colour or a finish when you talk to the studio.
These are not the studio's own work. Every photograph on this page comes from Unsplash and is used under the Unsplash licence. We couldn't confirm any published photos of Mercy Beauty Studio's work, so we're not going to pass stock photography off as theirs. Treat this as a mood board, not a portfolio.

The studio
The studio, told plainly
Most salon pages open with a founding story. We'd rather tell you what's actually known about Mercy Beauty Studio, and be clear about the parts that aren't published.
What the listing says
Mercy Beauty Studio appears on Google Maps under two categories: nail salon and beauty salon. It carries a 5.0 rating from a single review, which is a nice start but not much to go on — one person's experience is one person's experience.
The studio is in Nairobi, and the listing uses a plus-code location rather than a street address, with a map pin you can open directly. That's the most precise information available, and it lives on the visit and contact page.
What isn't published
There's no published price list, no opening hours, no team page and no confirmed portfolio of work. That's not unusual for a small studio, but it does mean a phone call is how you get real answers.
Rather than fill these gaps with invented detail, this site keeps them open and points you at the number that works.
Approach
Three things worth caring about in a nail studio
These are principles, not claims about equipment or products we haven't seen. If any of them matter to you, ask about them on the phone — a good studio will answer.
-
01
Tools and cleanliness
Ask how tools are cleaned between clients and whether files are single-use. It's a fair question and no one should mind being asked.
-
02
Listening first
Shape, length and colour are decisions. A short conversation before anything is filed saves everyone time.
-
03
Honest timing
Nail art, repairs and group bookings take longer than a plain colour. Ask what to expect so nobody has to rush a finish.
One honest sentence
If you need to know something specific — a brand, a price, whether a particular treatment is available this week — the studio's phone line is the only place that answer exists.
Appointments
Request an appointment
Fill this in and it prepares a clear request you can read out or copy when you call the studio. Nothing is booked until the studio confirms it with you.
This form doesn't book anything and nothing is sent automatically. It collects your details into a neat summary. Call 0143 107 024 to pass the request on — the studio will confirm whether the time is free.
Your request is ready
Nothing has been sent yet. Call the studio on 0143 107 024 and read this out — or copy it and send it the way you normally reach them.
Beauty guide
Practical notes on nails
General guidance you can use before and after any appointment, at any studio. It isn't medical advice, and it isn't a description of the products or prices at Mercy Beauty Studio — for those, call the studio.
Choosing a shape you can live with
Long almond nails photograph beautifully and need looking after. Square nails are strong at the corners but catch on things. Round and oval shapes wear best for most people who type, cook or work with their hands.
If it's your first proper set, ask for something close to your natural length. You can always go longer next time; going shorter in a hurry usually means starting over.
Match the shape to the week ahead
Wedding on Saturday and a week of moving boxes after? A shorter, rounder shape will survive both. Nails don't need to be dramatic to look deliberate.
Making a manicure last
- Dry your hands properly. Water sitting under a fresh finish softens it. Pat dry rather than rubbing.
- Oil the edges. Cuticle oil or a plain moisturiser keeps the skin around the nail from cracking.
- Gloves for cleaning. Detergents are rough on both polish and skin.
- Use your nails as tools less. Open cans with a spoon, not a thumbnail.
- Deal with chips early. A small chip is a quick fix; a picked-at chip usually takes the whole nail with it.
At the studio
Bringing a reference photo
A screenshot is more useful than a description, but only if it shows the right things. Save two or three pictures rather than ten — the conversation gets clearer, not muddier.
If you can, find a photo taken in daylight, on a hand similar to yours. A heavily edited image will look different in person, and nobody wants to discover that at the end.
- Say which part you like. "This colour, but that shape" is a complete instruction.
- Point out what you don't want. It narrows things down faster than compliments do.
- Mention your own nails. Bitten, flaky or very short nails change what's possible on the day.
- Ask if it's achievable. A good answer is honest, not enthusiastic.
When to stop and ask someone qualified
This site can't diagnose anything. If a nail or the skin around it is painful, swollen, discoloured, bleeding or changing shape, don't book a manicure over it — speak to a pharmacist, nurse or doctor first. The same goes for anything that has been getting worse for weeks.
For questions about what a studio can and can't work over, ask on the phone before you book. It's a normal question and it saves a wasted trip.

Questions
Things people ask
Straight answers where we have them, and a phone number where we don't. Nothing here is padded out with guesses.
Call first. Opening hours aren't published online, so a walk-in is a gamble. A two-minute call tells you whether someone is free and when to come.
No price list is published, so this site doesn't quote one. Ask when you call and get the figure before you sit down — it can vary with the service and the finish.
The listing uses a plus code rather than a street address, and the map pin is the most precise thing available. Both are on the visit and contact page, along with a link that opens the pin in Google Maps.
Yes — it's the quickest way to agree on shape, colour and length. Save two or three references rather than a whole camera roll, and say which part of each you like.
That isn't confirmed online, so we won't claim it here. The studio is listed as a nail salon, but which systems and brands are used is something only the studio can tell you. Please ask on the phone.
It depends on the service and the finish. A plain colour is quicker than hand-painted detail, and a pedicure usually runs longer than a manicure. Ask when you book so you can plan your day.
Possibly, but groups need planning. Call a few days ahead and explain how many people are coming and what each person wants, so the time can be arranged properly.
Not something we can confirm. Open the map pin on the visit page for the location, and if you're close but can't find it, call the studio and describe where you are — that works better than any directions we could write.
We couldn't find a confirmed public portfolio, so the style library uses licensed reference photographs and says so clearly. If you'd like to see recent work, ask the studio directly.
Still not answered?
The studio's phone line is the place for anything specific — prices, availability, brands, directions.

- Email No public email listed
- Opening hours Not confirmed online
There's no published email address, so phone is the route to use. Opening hours aren't confirmed anywhere we could verify — please call before you travel rather than assuming the studio is open.
Online
- Facebook The Facebook post where the studio was shared
- Google rating 5.0 from 1 review
That Facebook link opens a post in a public group, not a website. It's the only public profile found for the studio, so treat it as a mention rather than an official page.
When you arrive
- Ring the day before. Hours aren't posted, so confirming is the difference between an appointment and a wasted journey.
- Bring your reference photo. Phone screenshots are fine — daylight shots are better.
- Arrive with clean, unpolished nails if you can, especially for a first visit.
- Ask for the price up front. It isn't published anywhere, and asking is completely normal.
