Extremely clean and professional. Would definitely go again. All nail files used on a client (from new) are cleaned and placed into an envelope with the clients name on it for future use and any other items disposed of.

I love getting my fingernails and toenails done by Debbie. She is very professional, has great ideas and is lovely. I’m always getting comments on how great my nails look. Highly recommend her.

Lisa


I absolutely love getting my nails done at Rambling Rose! Debbie is not afraid to try out any of your ideas and make magic happen. Every time I have my nails done I get so many great comments on how beautiful they are. It’s lovely to sit and be pampered and have a great conversation with someone who is genuinely interested in what you have to say, this is something that is lacking in other nail salons that I have been to. If you want beautiful nails and an amazing experience at the same time, please contact Rambling Rose salon.

I would once again like to thank you so much for your efforts and friendly, professional service on our special day. I sometimes find myself wishing I could look so pretty all the time, you are magical!

I couldn’t recommend Debbie Page-Wood highly enough. I had the pleasure of working with Debbie in December 2012 where she was one of two make-up artists for our first professional musical in Westville, Durban. Debbie was responsible for applying make-up for 4-5 cast members for 2 rehearsals and 6 nights of shows over 2 weekends.

Raise the RoofDebbie worked as a team with the other artist, however her experience and precise skills shone through. Debbie was punctual and reliable and did whatever it took to get us made up within our strict time frames. She fulfilled our make-up requirements and exceeded our expectations. We could not have asked for a more reliable make-up artist for our first show and really appreciated everything Debbie did for us and can’t recommend her highly enough.

As the manager of Rain Farm Game and Lodge, I have worked with Debbie for our past two Bridal Fairs (2011 and 2012) where she did the bridal make-up for the models in the fashion show and it is with great pleasure that I recommend her services to you.

Rain FarmDebbie has always been very reliable and punctual, her work is of a high standard and she is a pleasure to work with. With her positive attitude and commitment to excellence you will not be disappointed in her efforts to deliver services of an excellent standard.
