Booking & appointments
Due to limited availability we recommend that all clients book in advance. That said, if you are walking by you are welcome to ask and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Before your treatment, our therapists will spend time with you to determine your treatment needs, desired results, length of time for service and pricing. These consultations are designed to improve our overall service and your salon experience.
Please arrive at least 3 minutes before your scheduled treatment time so that you can check in. We run a tight ship and to ensure we provide a high quality service to all clients, arrivals more than 10 minutes after the scheduled booking time may result in the appointment being cancelled and a charge equal to the cost of your treatment(s) being applied.
Please let us know as soon as possible by calling us on 0207 967 1293. Arrivals more than 15 minutes after the scheduled booking time may result in the appointment being cancelled and a charge equal to the cost of your treatment(s) being applied.
Policies & payments
We appreciate life happens! But as we're a small business, short notice cancellations do affect us a lot. Please note the deposit is non-refundable.
More than 48 hours notice
Completely free of charge — we can transfer your deposit to a future appointment.
24 to 48 hours notice
A charge equal to 50% of the cost of the treatment(s) booked will apply.
Less than 24 hours notice
A charge equal to 100% of the cost of the treatment(s) booked will apply.
Cash is king! As a small business, bank processing fees eat into our margins so if you're able to bring cash, we'd really appreciate it. Otherwise, we can still process most debit and credit cards (including American Express) in our salon and through a payment link sent as a text to your mobile.
Business account details can also be provided for BACs transfers if preferred — please ask a member of the team. We reserve the right to ask clients to pay in full before treatments.
At MAU Beauty, we pride ourselves on what we do. Whilst we operate a no refund policy for treatments, in the unlikely event that you are unsatisfied, our team are happy to try to rectify the problem or offer an equivalent treatment (time permitting) during your appointment slot.
Once you have left the salon following your treatment, you confirm that you have accepted the treatment and that the service provided is to a satisfactory level.
Should you remain unsatisfied following a rectification attempt, please follow our complaints procedure by contacting us via:
Please include the reason for your complaint along with photographic evidence where applicable.
If you love your service, please feel free to leave a tip. At MAU Beauty, 100% of tips are passed on to your therapist.
Gift cards are available to purchase in salon or via email. We will require a mobile number (for payment purposes), full name and email address of the purchaser. Once paid, you'll receive the gift card code to your email address which can be shared with a recipient.
Visiting the salon
Children under the age of 12 may accompany adult customers to their appointments but they must be accompanied at all times. As our locations are working nail salons, it can be dangerous for children not to be closely looked after. We reserve the right to terminate a client's treatment if their child is posing a health and safety risk to themselves or others, or is disturbing other customers due to lack of supervision. Any bookings cancelled due to non-compliance with this policy will be non-refundable.
For clients under 16 receiving a treatment, written parental or guardian consent is required — a form will be provided prior to treatment start time. A parent or guardian must also accompany any client under 16 during their treatment.
Pets are of course always welcome — as long as you promise they'll be well behaved during your treatment!
By booking or having a treatment with us, you are confirming that you have provided or will provide all relevant medical information at the time of booking. Should service be refused due to non-disclosure, we reserve the right to charge in full for treatments booked.
Please disclose any of the following prior to your treatment:
