That Welsh Nail Guy: Manicures, Pedicures & Nail Art

Sobre nosotros

Shwmae, I’m Cory 👋 Cardiff nail tech at Ginger by Zoe – here for your nails and probably an unnecessary amount of chat.

I do a bit of everything – from tidy gels to bold colours, and the occasional ‘wow, how do you function with those?’ set. I’ve got range, but let’s keep it within the laws of physics, yeah?

This space is zero-pressure and open to literally everyone: queer, neurodivergent, anxious, chatty, quiet, over-sharers, introverts – croeso i bawb.

Beware: Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, or SZA references may occur during your appointment.

Basically: come as you are, leave feeling lush. Diolch for stopping by – your nails are in good hands.

Nuestra experiencia

I’ve been in the nail world since Feb 2025, and it’s been a whirlwind of learning, creating, and growing, especially on socials, where I’ve been able to share my journey along the way.

I’m qualified in gel polish, builder gel, file, gel extensions, and hard gel, so I like to think I can do a bit of everything. Basically, if it’s nails, I’m here for it
