Rambling Rose is a private, boutique nail and make-up salon based in Mangawhai Heads, providing customised one-on-one manicure, pedicure, and make-up services for women. By appointment only. Feel free to bring pictures to your appointment, and a bespoke manicure or make-up look will be created for you.

Debbie qualified as a make-up artist in 2010 (CIBTAC), receiving a second qualification in make-up artistry in 2012 (ITEC), before qualifying as nail technician with Monaco Nail Academy in 2015. She uses high-quality, professional nail products from the Artistic Nail Design range which includes Colour Gloss gel polish, Artistic Putty (also known as PolyGel or acrygel), and Gel-On Xtensions, and Famous Names’ IBX Treatment to strengthen weak nails prone to breakages.

In her spare time, Debbie makes handmade jewellery and home décor items, and writes novels – these can all be found on the Shop page.

Please use the quick links above for manicure and/or make-up price lists, or to book an appointment. Gift vouchers and all products sold in the salon – removal kits, nail files, cuticle oil, etc. – can all be found in the online store. If you’re looking for blog posts, articles, answers to FAQs, or any other information, please use the menu bar above, or the three horizontal stripes if you’re on a mobile device.

To see a portfolio of Debbie’s work, please have a look at the Rambling Rose Nails’s Facebook page or find @ramblingrosenails on Instagram.

Today is World Arthritis Day. One of the things Today is World Arthritis Day. 

One of the things I ask on the consultation form before your first appointment is if you have arthritis. This is not me being nosy. It's so I can provide you with the most comfortable service possible. 

As a fellow arthritis sufferer, I know what those flare-ups feel like, and if the arthritis affects your fingers or toes, there may be days when it feels uncomfortable to have those digits moved around during a service. I make note of where the arthritis is, which fingers/toes it affects, and ask that you let me know if you're having a flare-up so I can be extra careful on those days.
