Beauty Treatments to Book When Visiting London
London itineraries fill up quickly. There are restaurants to try, shops to visit, shows to see and people to meet. But for many of our international guests, a trip to London also means making time for a beauty appointment.
Iris Avenue is a Central London beauty destination where treatments come with the hospitality of somewhere you’d actually choose to spend your time. Come for a manicure, nail art, lashes, a spray tan or another beauty treatment, stay for a cocktail, matcha or coffee, and make the appointment part of your London plans.
With locations in Fitzrovia and Marylebone, Iris Avenue is designed for Londoners and visitors alike.
What beauty treatments should you book while visiting London?
Manicures, BIAB & Nail Art
Nails are one of the treatments our international guests book most.
Choose a classic or gel manicure, BIAB for added strength and longevity, or make the appointment part of the trip with nail art created by our nail artists.
If you’re travelling for longer, BIAB can be particularly useful for guests who want their manicure to last throughout their trip.
Lashes
Lash extensions are ideal if you’d rather spend less time getting ready each morning while you’re away.
A lash lift can be a great alternative for guests with naturally longer lashes who want a more lifted, eye-opening appearance without extensions.
Already travelling with extensions from another salon? Iris Avenue can also perform infills on work from elsewhere, subject to the condition of the existing lashes.
Spray Tans
A spray tan can be booked before a London event, wedding, night out or before travelling onwards for a holiday.
For the best experience, we generally recommend tanning around two days before an event, although the day before can also work. Express options are available when you don’t have eight hours to allow a traditional tan to develop.
Short on time in London?
You can also book a manicure and pedicure to take place at the same time, with two technicians working simultaneously.
It’s a useful option if your itinerary is already packed and you’d like to fit both treatments into your trip without spending twice as long in the salon.

Make the appointment part of your London plans
Iris Avenue was designed to feel like more than somewhere you visit for a treatment.
Meet a friend over manicures and cocktails. Book before dinner or a West End show. Stop in after shopping. Get ready for a wedding or event. Or simply give yourself somewhere lovely to spend part of an afternoon in London.
The Iris Avenue Bar serves cocktails alongside alcohol-free drinks, coffee and matcha, so you don’t need to rush out the moment your treatment is finished.
For groups travelling together, we can also arrange group beauty bookings so friends can enjoy treatments and drinks together.
