Annie Nguyen
Nail Technician
Hi, I’m Annie, the nail technician at Hairsentials. I’ve been doing nails for 18 years, and I genuinely love what I do. It’s incredibly rewarding to be a part of my clients’ special moments—whether it’s helping a bride perfect her look for one of the most important days of her life, supporting a nail biter in growing their nails for the first time, assisting with a birthday celebration, or simply providing day-to-day self-care that helps someone feel good. In addition to nail services, I also offer professional eyebrow treatments to help you look and feel your best. Outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym and practicing yoga.
Grace Mcdonagh
Stylist
Hi, I'm Grace, a born and bred Chelmsford girl and hair stylist. I have 10 years of experience hairdressing and have worked in corporate high street salons, small independent salons and also for the last 3 years worked self-employed which has been my favourite so far. Over the years I have built the loveliest clientele. We have laughed together, cried together and spent hundreds of hours putting the world to right all while I get to the job I love and so incredibly passionate about.
