Having had a passion for art from a really young age, Hayley studied art and graphic design at college. In 2012 she started to notice a growing trend in nail art and decided it was time for a change of career. She took a NVQ level 2 course in nail technology and went on to have her first job in the industry at WAH nails. She has worked on numerous beauty shoots, including working for Rankin and London Fashion Week as well as working on events for brands such as Vans, Nike, Boohoo and Bumble,.
She started her career at WAH Nails, based at their flagship store on Oxford Street in 2012, before moving on to working for Shoreditch Nails in 2014. Since joining Shoreditch nails, Hayley had the opportunity to work on many events, doing nails for many high profile and celebrity clients, and worked her way up and became the creative director for the company. When the Shoreditch Nails Academy opened in August 2017, she acquired her Level 3 in Education and Training and became a nail educator.
Now, having relocated in 2019 and passionate about her nail art, Hayley wanted to bring a little bit of London style & trends to the Cotswolds. After beginning her new venture working as a mobile nail artist, due to demand, in 2020 Hayley made the decision to open a beautiful studio to work from in the Warwickshire village of Long Compton, and has since hired a second nail artist to increase the appointments available and help grow the team.
In 2021, Hayley decided to go back to her passion of teaching and has now launched her own courses and workshops from her cozy Cotswold studio. More info on her education and training can be found here.
