Beauty entrepreneur Juanita launched the luxury nail salon chain Townhouse in 2018 with the goal to elevate the nail salon experience for both customers and team members that work in the industry. With over 15 locations across London and the UK, Townhouse is currently the fastest-growing beauty services business in Europe.
I love working in the wellness industry because….
It gives us an incredible opportunity to empower individuals and help them feel their best. There’s something special about having some “me-time” and leaving with flawless nails. It instantly boosts your confidence and makes you feel ready to conquer the day. When your nails look amazing, you feel amazing too!
Townhouse is best known for…
Our luxurious chic interiors, relaxing ambience, innovative nail art, and exceptional quality nail treatments. One of my biggest goals when launching Townhouse was to create an atmosphere where our customers can unwind and enjoy a truly indulgent nail care experience.
When it comes to brides-to-be, Townhouse Knightsbridge (located on the fifth floor in Harrods), seems to be the go-to destination. It’s the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion with your closest friends and loved ones. From our semi-private booths, perfect for taking a family member or MOH, to the buzzy mani bar, which will fit you and your bridesmaids! Plus, you can enjoy a glass of champagne during your treatment, making it feel extra special.
Our biggest achievement to date is…
The recognition we’ve received in the industry. We’re thrilled to have been awarded the prestigious title of Best Nail Salon several times at the ‘Scratch Awards’ – which is such an honour for our team members. We were also very proud to win the same award at the ‘UK Hair and Beauty Awards’ this year, these achievements really affirm what we set out to do in the industry.
We’re inspired by…
A combination of fashion, art, and the influence of celebrities. Fashion trends play a significant role in shaping our seasonal nail art collections and we closely observe the catwalks and fashion themes to discover the latest trends in terms of hues, textures, finishes and looks.
The allure of celebrities is also a great source of inspiration for us. We are particularly drawn to influential figures like Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez who often take off and go viral online with their nail choices. We also keep a close eye on red carpets, award ceremonies, and high-profile events, observing the nail styles adorned by these celebrities. Their choices and unique personal styles fuel our creativity, enabling us to create A-list looks that exude glamour.
The current nail trends we’re loving for brides are…
The classic French manicure – this look is timeless, elegant and beautifully complements every style of wedding dress! The stunning style is a perennial favourite among brides and my personal favourite too.
For the modern-day bride, we love the Reverse Frenchie, a soft chrome finish or a delicate nail art accent adding a touch of glamour. I am personally loving little white hearts, a simple floral accent or a tiny dot that matches your ring colour.
Our favourite nail shades from the collection for brides…
Sheer pinks, milky whites and nudes – these super chic hues create a delicate and romantic look that complements any wedding dress. My favourite combination is ‘Love is in the Bare’ and ‘Bubble Bath’ by OPI. Layering these two stunning shades creates the most beautiful natural look for a bride!
My favourite place in the world to skip the crowds is…
I grew up in the countryside and love going back, it’s tranquil and the perfect escape for relaxation! I also love holidays in Mexico.
The best person to follow on Instagram for the perfect nails for your wedding day are..
Leonnie Hanne or Chloe Rose Moutter – with their stylish taste, they both consistently showcase stunning nail looks that will inspire you for your wedding day!
And finally, what’s next for Townhouse…
Our aim is to continue pushing boundaries, setting new standards and delivering a fantastic nail salon experience that exceeds expectations, throughout the UK!
