The Painted Lady

This salon in the heart of Shoreditch has a nice worn-in vibe with antiques and bare brick walls. It’s really laid-back and does great manicures and pedicures for mums and kids together. It’s not at all girly, boys are welcome, and it’s a fun—and a bit indulgent—way to spend time with your children. Check their Instagram for pattern inspiration. The mother-child mani-pedi isn’t on the website, and it’s not even part of their regular menu so you need to know about it to book in. Kids are always made really welcome and they’ll set the price depending the age of the child
