At the forefront of nail art in Melbourne, founder Chelsea Bagan, set up shop aspiring to provide a service that no one else offered; immaculately crafted nail art. Trophy Wife marries this fresh approach to a typical salon with an old school appreciation and grace. Stepping foot into the vibrant, unique salon a sea of lush greenery embellishes a hair salon station while a vibrant floor to ceiling mural frames the nail bar. The space is considerably styled, drawing your attention to every corner of the room. Notably the very impressive kaleidoscopic collection of polishes displayed on the wall to help inform the very difficult decision of what to get painted. From miniature pepperoni pizzas to your own French bulldog or a Memphis inspired pattern these girls can paint whatever your heart desires. In short treat yourself, get your nails done." - Shelby De Fazio

Love my nails by Lili Taylor, they discussed with me that we should make the interior of the heart accent design smaller than the inspo pic and I love and prefer it this way I'm very lucky to have a nail artist who is so easy to work with and great at what they do

Tanya is seriously the best nail tech I’ve ever been to! Her designs are seriously off the charts and if you don’t know what you want she has blueprints of designs ready! The quality is unmatched while the nails are just dazzling, never gotten so many compliments on my phalanges in my life, would recommend!!

I have been coming to Trophy Wife since 2017 and I adore this place. Everyone that works here is fabulous but Tanya is my ride or die — she has a way of interpreting my emotions into nails. My nails make life better and I have Trophy Wife and Tanya to thank!!

I had my nails done by Tanya for the first time last night and had the best experience! Apart from my nails looking amazing, the whole energy in the salon was so nice and friendly and professional. Would highly recommend to anyone 5 stars 🌟

I recently went for a manicure with normal nail polish. The manicure was amazing, I loved the colour choices (as I asked for a suggestion). The colour has lasted so well after cleaning and doing dishes. The quality of work is really amazing. I am going to go back for the gel nail art in the new year.

I’ve been to Trophy Wife a couple of times now, once with Hahn and once with Tanya as my nail techs. Some of the warmest, friendliest and most proficient service I’ve experienced, plus I’ve walked out with beautiful, well-done manicures on both occasions. Cannot recommend highly enough!

I’ve been coming to see Lili for nearly two years to get BIAB done and they are hands down the best nail tech I’ve ever seen! Amazing attention to detail and their sets last 4+ weeks easily (when I’m also taking proper care of them!) and my natural nails have never been healthier! We always have so much fun chatting as well, can’t recommend them enough!

What a lovely team. My nails look awesome of course. Resident salon dog was an added bonus. 💅🐶

I really wanted to love this place as it's local, decently priced and the staff that work there seem lovely. Unfortunately my gel manicure lasted about 7 days before I lost one nail completely and after 2 weeks every nail is peeling or lifting despite me being careful with them. Pretty disappointing.
Might be better for regular nails or if you're after some cool nail art but can live with the short lifespan.
