The Nail Spa opens in Mall of the Emirates

Hafsa Lodi

28 September, 2016

The Nail Spa (TNS) has officially opened its doors in Dubai’s Mall of the Emirates, adding to its portfolio of branches across the UAE.

TNS comes under the umbrella of beauty concepts from House of Enspa — which started out in 2013 as just a holding company for The Nail Spa and Marquee hair salon. It now also encompasses Art Bar, which is housed within TNS branches on Jumeirah Beach Road and the new Mall of the Emirates location. From metallic geometric patterns to colourful three-dimensional roses, hundreds of nail art designs are on offer, and clients can even create their own concepts.

There’s also a well-stocked boutique at the new TNS, where customers can shop the latest beauty products — think Collab dry shampoos, Kevin Murphy volumisers, Invisibobbles, Inglot beauty blenders, a wide variety of nail shades and more.

TNS is also partnering again with Pink Caravan to help raise awareness for breast cancer this October. Pink Caravan is a local initiative led by H.h. Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak that works to ensure early detection of breast cancer, improve existing breast cancer screening centres and make mobile mammography units accessible to men and women in the UAE. Throughout October, clients at TNS can choose to add a complimentary pink dot to their manicures, which will give them a 10 per cent discount off of all pink beauty products. TNS will then donate a percentage of proceeds to Pink Caravan.

Make an appointment at any TNS location by calling 600 544 001 or book online here.

Alwyn Stephen says much of his success is a result of taking an educated chance on business decisions.

His advice to anyone starting out in business is to have no fear as life is about taking on challenges.

“If you have the ambition and dream of something, follow that dream, be positive, determined and set goals.

"Nothing and no-one can stop you from succeeding with the right work application, and a little bit of luck along the way.”

Mr Stephen sells his luxury fragrances at selected perfumeries around the UAE, including the House of Niche Boutique in Al Seef.

He relaxes by spending time with his family at home, and enjoying his wife’s India cooking.

JOKE'S ON YOU

Google wasn't new to busting out April Fool's jokes: before the Gmail "prank", it tricked users with mind-reading MentalPlex responses and said well-fed pigeons were running its search engine operations .

In subsequent years, they announced home internet services through your toilet with its "patented GFlush system", made us believe the Moon's surface was made of cheese and unveiled a dating service in which they called founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page "Stanford PhD wannabes ".

But Gmail was all too real, purportedly inspired by one – a single – Google user complaining about the "poor quality of existing email services" and born "millions of M&Ms later".
