Royston nail salon celebrates 10 years in business with fancy party

Fancy Fingers, a nail salon in Royston, Hertfordshire, celebrated 10 years in business with a party for clients, featuring freebies and flowing prosecco.

Founder, Katie Moulton, completed nail training with Gelish in July 2013, after seeking a career that would fit around her two young children. Her husband then converted the family’s garage into a home nail salon which has continued to thrive, and from which she offers manicures and pedicures with either CND Vinylux or Gelish Soak-Off Gel Polish.

To commemorate her success, Katie hosted a drop-in evening celebration at Kelly’s Kitchen, a cake shop close to her home salon. Guests enjoyed prosecco and brownies from the bakery, and were each given a scratch card with prizes including money off a treatment, a free gift or nail art upgrade.

“My customers are the best part of my business and the reason I get to do what I love and enjoy,” smiles Katie. “They range from 16 to 96 years old – with some loving a simple, plain colour gel manicure and others choosing creative nail art.

“My favourite designs to create are Disney themed nails, Christmas designs, neon animal print and floral looks. Offering nail art means that no day every feels the same and is another reason why I love what I do.”

Katie’s motto is ‘fail to plan, plan to fail’, which is so important when running a business and part of the reason why I feel that Fancy Fingers is a success after 10 years. “I am so content with my business and feel that my work/life balance is good,” Katie reveals. “One of the biggest compliments I receive as a business owner is when my clients recommend my services to others, and I look forward to many more successful decades in business.”
