When some friends gave me a gift card for Blonde Tiger I knew I was in for a treat. I'm the lazy-do-nothing-except-once-a-year-self-polish-job kind of gal, so was stoked to get a bit of pampering done. Go figure I now see Erin every three weeks for a new colour and style. As an FYI I'm not crazy about heaps of glitter or nail art. And, thankfully, Erin doesn't mind!! Not only does she have an array of beautiful colours to choose from, there's this great process she does that includes tidying up the nails themselves to make them healthier as well as convincing me to add just a bit of glitter or sparkle here and there. I've never been disappointed in her work. I regularly get compliments on my nails from strangers and never hesitate to tell them to go to Blonde Tiger. Here's to a sassy, kick ass lady raising the bar through her work. Read Less

The real deal. Erin's nail skills and professionalism are matched by her magnetic personality, making each appointment a mixture of self-beautification and visiting a good friend. Her knowledge of the nail industry, products, and what really works vs marketing gimmick, makes her someone to trust in the beauty world. If you want a worry-free, personalised, well-executed nail treatment, Erin is THE woman to see. And, Blonde Tiger's convenient online booking system is the icing on the cake. Read Less

Erin is the only manicurist I will go to - she has an incredible knowledge of nail health and has helped me look after my nails for years. Her balance of extensive beauty experience and sense of humour make going to the salon an extra treat. Read Less

I've been seeing Erin regularly for two years now & she has entirely rehabilitated my nails back to their previous strength after being damaged by terrible techs. I always recommend her to friends, old & new. She is professional, hilarious & warm. Not just a tech, but a friend too. Read Less

Erin has been doing my nails for the last two years, and she is amazing. The salon is super cute and her IBX treatments for damaged nails have bought my nail beds back to life. Really recommend her as a technician. Read Less

Erin, you're the best! Not only have my short, ugly nails vastly improved since I started seeing you for IBX treatments, your customer service is always outstanding to the point that I feel like I'm catching up with a friend each visit. My strong, glittery nails salute you! Read Less

I was very excited to get off my plane from NZ and go and get my nails done with the blonde tiger. I had heard about her here on Yelp and she had very good reviews. I guess the fact I was from out of town and she knew I wouldn't be a repeat customer meant she didn't need to put in as much effort. My 55min luxe mani turned into 30 minutes and I didn't get the hand massage or exfoliating scrub. $65 dollars later and I hate to say it but my nails look pretty rough. It sounds like she's great for her repeat customers but if you're looking for a one off I wouldn't recommend! Read Less

It was seven years past that I first gave my feet to Erin for repair.  With their close relatives my hands,  they still make the journey to this all-blonde, all-bad expert not only in matters of decoration but of the heart. This is a place for a gossip cleanse as well as a top-drawer laser gel mani/pedi. It's wheelchair and mobility accessible which is apt because Erin and her co-tennants at Fluff Hair seem to welcome the parts of the world more commonly shunned. Highly recommended. Read Less

Best manicure. Fabulous nail art( if you want it) and the most hilarious fly girl doing her thang. Love love love this place and this woman. Do yourself a favour and get on down. You will not be sorry. Read Less

Nail hero!Erin is such a champ that it's worth booking an appointment 65% for the rad nails and 35% for the great conversation. I thought a fair bit about that percentage split so I hope it's flattering because I was well chuffed with my mermaid glitter vomit nails in all my favourite shades of vomit. I mean blue!!! SHADES OF BLUE mermaid glitter vomit. They were exceptional, I only wish they'd lasted months but not even the greatest nail artist/beautician in the world can provide that. Exceptional pricing too, and did I mention the conversation? A+ afternoon. Read Less

Erin specializes in manicures, pedicures, gel nails and nail art - especially if glitter is involved. She has a great eye for detail and ensures the best care is taken of your nails. But this is no salon for the prudish and proper, or for boring French polish!The friendliest 'nail lady' (her term!) I have ever met, she offers coffee and a chat and is happy to customize your nails to any event or occasion, or go wild with her signature glitter-fade. Erin will cater for group bookings too, so organize an afternoon with your girlies and book with a 50% deposit to start your Girls Night Out off with beautiful nails.A manicure with gels will generally last for 10-14 days and sets you back $50 with the Fast Tiger manicure. Add a Fast Tiger pedicure to round the whole experience up to an even $100 and leave with your best foot forward... and newly sparkling! Read Less
