Get to know the faces behind Honey

Tandia & Elle, two experienced nail technicians with 4 and 12 years of experience, built Honey on a foundation of trust, respect, and a shared vision—to create more than just a salon. They wanted a space where every client feels at home, cared for, and truly considered. A place where the rules are theirs to make, ensuring a welcoming, safe, and uplifting experience for their Honey family.

  • I've had the pleasure of having Elle as my go-to nail artist for five years, and I can confidently say that the ladies at Honey are the best in the business! Elle’s talent is unparalleled, and I've never once been disappointed with the quality of her work. From the moment I step into their beautiful new salon, I feel welcome and at ease. The atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing, making every visit a treat. My daughter loves to come along and Elle & Tandia always go out of their way to make it a special experience for her. Their dedication to their craft shines through in every detail, and I'm so grateful to have found them. If you're looking for exceptional nail artistry, look no further than Honey!

  • Elle has been my nail tech for about 8 years now and I would follow her anywhere! Her work is meticulous every time, whether I’m getting a more basic single colour or going for her beautiful nail art. We also have a good laugh every time I’m at the salon ❤️

  • From the moment I sat across from Tandia, I felt like I was home. Her approachable personality and chatty demeanour made me feel comfortable immediately. Her emotional intelligence to things going on in my life became a lifeline for me. Her technician talent is just as amazing. I’ve never had a set of nails I haven’t loved. She’s even empowered me to try different shapes & colours I don’t normally go for. I will be a returning forever and ever.
