Where Care, Craft and Comfort Meet
Tucked within the stylish surrounds of The Crossing, Christchurch’s premier boutique retail destination, you’ll find ProfessioNAIL; a salon that’s as passionate about relaxation as it is about results. Under the leadership of Nicole, who recently took the reins as director, this longstanding nail salon has quickly become a firm favourite among locals looking for quality nail services and exceptional customer care.
Located downstairs opposite Ruby, ProfessioNAIL offers a broad range of services to suit every nail need. Whether it’s a gel polish manicure, a set of durable builder gel extensions, or the popular SNS dipping powder, clients are spoilt for choice. But what sets this salon apart – and keeps customers coming back – is its indulgent pedicure service. Nestled into a spa chair that gently massages your back while your feet are pampered, it’s a full-body experience that leaves you refreshed and revived.
“Our most popular service is definitely the pedicure,” says Nicole. “Clients love relaxing in the chair, getting a foot massage and a back massage at the same time.”
Nicole brings not only technical expertise but a warm, welcoming presence. Having worked in the Riccarton salon before joining The Crossing, her journey from staff member to owner has been shaped by a hands-on, client-first approach. Today, she manages a close-knit team of five alongside Tim, her husband, ensuring every visit is smooth and friendly.
The salon has earned a strong reputation for both quality and value. “Our customers often say their nails last a long time and they appreciate that we always ask for their preferences before starting. They know they’re going to get great service and fair pricing,” Nicole shares. Regular promotions, seasonal specials and a loyalty card system add further value, from small discounts to full rewards for frequent visitors.
It’s not just the service that’s special, it’s the setting too. The Crossing’s boutique atmosphere and convenient city-centre location make it a perfect fit. “The people here are polite, friendly and loyal,” Nicole says. “And with easy car parking upstairs, it’s so convenient for our customers.”
When Nicole isn’t in the salon – which isn’t often, especially on weekends – she enjoys spending time with her family or catching a moment of calm at IHF gym, just steps away. She’s also active behind the scenes, creating content for ProfessioNAIL’s social media channels and checking Google Reviews to see how the team can improve.
Ultimately, what sets ProfessioNAIL apart is a commitment to personalised care and genuine hospitality. As Nicole says, “If people want the best quality and customer service, they should come to us. We can do anything they want.”
So next time you’re browsing the boutique laneways of The Crossing, take a moment for yourself. Whether it’s a quick manicure or a restorative spa pedicure, ProfessioNAIL offers a warm welcome and polished results every time.
