Nail art by Heidi Hockenjos

Heidi has been creating natural looking nail art for the past 8 years. Whilst living in L.A in 2016, she had her nails done for the first time by an incredible nail artist and was hooked. In the US particularly, there are some truly groundbreaking artists pushing the boundaries of what nail art is.

Heidi was transfixed by the process and the technicality of it, it seemed to fit really well with jewellery (her long time profession) colourful, delicate and detailed, just like her jewels. Heidi weaves in everything that she is inspired by, particularly other craft-forms like ceramics and textiles and also by nature.

Once back in the UK she became a qualified Bio Sculpture gel nail technician, purely to use it for nail art. Heidi had a very clear vision and has since developed completely her own aesthetic. The nails that Heidi creates are often matte, with a clear and natural looking base so they look and feel like the natural nail but with beautiful, colourful embellishments.

Sitting somewhere between tattoos and jewellery, its guaranteed that when you have you nails done by Heidi, you will feel uplifted and a sense of joy whenever you look down at your hands. The reason for this kind adornment is deeper than just cosmetic.

Having always used natural skincare products, Heidi was drawn to Bio Sculpture as it is a completely non-toxic, vegan, high quality gel. The application and removal is really gentle and not harmful to the natural nail at all, this differs from many other nail enhancement products on the market.

Heidi is very passionate about self care and helping women to feel good and empowered in their bodies, this is a huge driving force behind why she enjoys this work.

As well as having the time to sit and chat about life, most importantly it's a way to give women time to sit and take a well deserved 90 to 120mins break from their life and responsibilities and be nurtured.

Go for it and buy a well deserved session for yourself or for someone who really needs it...

Heidi is also available for wedding and event nails.
