I absolutely love going along to Illusions. I'm always greeted in a warm, friendly way. Maddie and Charlotte are lovely, fantastic service, never rushed, yet timely. It's always a fantastic experience, leaving me feeling relaxed and pampered. This spa is an amazing discovery.
Illusions is a little treasure of a beauty salon in Cringleford. I've been a regular customer for the last few months. I cant fault the services they offer a I've recommended them to all my friends. (who are now regulars too!)
As a long standing client I've been "loved" by Illusions for some time - since they started. However hectic my day its always a pleasure to go to Illusions and be treated as an individual not just a "client". Fab busieness - fab service.
A very friendly but very professional salon. A place of warmth and a very pleasurable experience.
I come not just to get my nails looking beautiful - which of course, they always do - but for an hour or so of chat and giggles in Maddie's relaxed surroundings. I followed her from Wymondham to Cringleford and wouldn't think of going anywhere else.
I have been going to this beauty salon for over a year now and the treatments are always amazing!You always leave feeling really pampered and the beauticians are lovely!
Warm, welcoming and full of personality! Lovely salon, which is why I keep on coming back. My fav place to come for "me" time. thanks for looking after me for the last 10 years and the next 10. xx
Fantastic friendly staff, always welcoming and putting you at ease. I have recommended Illusions to many friends. I'm always 100% happy every time.
A very welcoming business. Made me feel very easy about having a spray tan. Nice people to deal with. Keep it up.
The salon is very relaxing and Maddie always does a great job of my nails and spray tan, thats why I always come back!

I come in stressed and anxious and leave after being with friends, relaxed and beautiful. It's wonderful.
Maddie and Charlotte offer a very professional and friendly service in a lovely, relaxing salon. I would have no hesitation in recommending Illusions.
I've been having my nails done by Maddie for years and wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. I'm always made to feel comfortable and enjoy my "me time" at the salon!

Very professional and friendly service, and my nails always stay perfect until my next appointment.
I recommend Maddie for nails anyday, and charlotte for a pedicure, the salon is warm comfortable and inviting, Maddie and Charlotte always make me feel welcome looking forward to my next appointment.
I have been visiting Maddie for 10 years now, not like the usual beauty salon, I would always feel slightly uncomfortable is this type of environment, but not with Illusions, you get the personal touch, you are no a one to one basis, never feel rushed, you can talk about your troubles and she will always listen, you are confident it will go no further, you can go in feeling tense and walk out totally relaxed.I would class Maddie as a friend and this is the feeling she relays to everybody who visits. I cannot recommend highly enough.You must try a massage with Charlotte she is fantastic and one of the best I have had.
Its home from home with added comfort and pampering allowing you to relax and enjoy the experience.
its a very nice cosy relaxed salon where you can really lay back and be pampered by specialists. you leave the salon feeling lovely and refreshed
As always I have had a lovely visit to illusions. I have had the most amazing semi permanent eyelash treatment, they look so natural along with the spray tan I look great and feel great. Thank you!
Maddie has been making my nails look lovely for over 5 years now, they always look wonderful. illusions is a lovely salon to visit, they are always friendly and inviting. It really is a fantastic salon and you don't have to worry about parking or battling the traffic in the city, I would recommend anyone who is thinking of visiting a salon to try illusions. You won't be disappointed and they have such a wide choice of treatments.
I have been going to illusions ever since they opened and it is by far the best beauty salon I have ever been to in Norwich. They offer a really extensive list of treatments, a wonderful warm realxing atmosphere, professional advice and really good prices. I would never go anywhere else now.
I have been using illusions for the past couple of years now and would like to just say that I have wonderful relaxing massages. I had been suffering from a bad back for ages and now it feels great. Thanks you.
My wife suggested I go for a massage to relieve the tension in my back. I had a lovely massage with Charlotte and came away feeling refreshed and relaxed. No more back ache! I will be visiting there again!
What a wonderful salon illusions is. I have just had my first visit and I can truly say that it was a wonderful experience. They have a friendly warm relaxed atmosphere there and such a wide range of services on offer. I will be going back soon.
Charlotte has just given me the best eyelashes ever. They look fantastic, I highly recommend them to anyone who wants gorgeous looking lashes! They drive the men wild!!! (I hope) :)
I have been going to illusions for a couple of years now and just wanted to say what a fantastic salon it is. Maddie always offers such a warm welcome. The atmosphere is so relaxed and inviting and I never have to worry about where to park, its situation is perfect!
I have just spent a day being pampered at illusions. My husband bought me an illusions gift voucher for Christmas which was the perfect present. I have had some eyelash extensions, a gorgeous spray tan and a full body massage. I will be going back again for sure. I know what presents to ask people for in future. :)
Just had my eyelashes done they look simply brilliant! I have had so many compliments about them already. They look so real! Thanks Charlotte.
I felt really nervous about going for a spray tan, but I was put totally at ease and it was really enjoyable. I need to look good for my job and the result was fantastic, the tan is so natural looking if you want to have a wonderful natural looking tan illusions is the place to go!
Just wanted to say thank you for a wonderful massage, I came away feeling totally refreshed and relaxed. Thanks you.
I have been having nail treatments with Maddie for several years now and would recommend to anyone looking for a nice, friendly and relaxed time. I used to find these type of salons intimidating, but Maddie puts you at ease with her friendly attitude. Recently I had my eyelashes done by Charlotte, all I can say is 'WOW', they are fantastic and don't get me started on Charlotte's massages, I cannot speak highly enough of the treatment I receive there.
Had my first visit to illusions the other day on the recommendation of a friend. I had such a lovely time being pampered. I came away feeling totally refreshed and relaxed, what a lovely morning I spent there. I have been to several salons over the years and this is by far the best I have been to, the atmosphere is terrific, staff are friendly and inviting. I cant wait for my next appointment.
I love my visits to illusions I have have many treatments over the last couple of years. They are always so friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed, it really is a great find. The massage I had the other day was just so relaxing. I would recommend illusions to anyone.
Thanks for fitting me in at such short notice (again!) the tan as always looks so natural. it always last so long too. The lashes still look fantastic too even after several weeks. Thanks Maddie & charlotte
I have just had a set of express lashes at illusions and they are to die for! Charlotte is a lovely therapist who made me feel very at ease. The results are fantastic, I have had so many comments about how wonderful they look. I finished off the transformation with a spray tan by Maddie, I have tried so many different types in tha past but the Fake Bake that Maddies uses looks gorgeous. I am ready for my big night out now! Thanks illusions :)
A friend of mine recommended illusions to me and I am so glad she did! it is such a find. The atmosphere is just fantastic, I have tried many of the salons in the city and they just don't compare to the surroundings offered by Maddie and her salon. I have fantastic looking nails, they are the best they have ever looked, the advice given is both proffesional and helpful. I can only say I am so glad I have found illusions and look forward to sampling thier wide range of treatments. I have even bought my mums Christmas present there!!
Myself and my mum were looking for a good nail salon and were not disappointed when we found Illusions. A real friendly and personal service from Maddie and her daughter Charlotte. The nails are done brilliantly, the toes are done to perfection and so we're really looking forward to our spray tan next week!
A very relaxing, warm and friendly atmosphere. I have had my nails done by Maddie now for the past 3 years and would certainly recommend her to anyone who is thinking of having theirs done. Her Fake Bake spray tans look just fantastic! and have booked into have some of those gorgeous 3d eyelash extensions. I would not go anywhere else illusions is just fantastic!
I have been a regular customer of Illusions now for over 2 years now and would highly recommend them for any type of beauty treatment. They are so friendly and offer a very professional service.Maddie is a fantastic nail technician; I would never go anywhere else. I also regularly attend her salon for a Spray tan (Fake Bake) as it looks so natural, you would think I spend most of my life on holiday… I wish!!But most recently I have started to have semi-permanent eye lashes put on by Charlotte… they are amazing!! Thanks Char xI wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Illusions to anyone, to me they are ‘The Best’
I have been going to Illusions for over a year now,and am thoroughly addicted! Maddie is great,and I always enjoy a good chat whilst she does my nails,with a coffe or glass of wine.Charlotte is also fabulous and does a wonderful job on my toes.The salon is fresh,comfortable and makes the whole experience very personal.What a great find!
'Illusions' is a fantastic salon for nails, tanning and a host of beauty treatments. Maddie and Charlotte are just brilliant, they're professional and will always recommend the best treatment for you without being too pushy. They are extremely friendly and helpful, a glass of tea, coffee or wine is always offered on arrival. Treatments are not rushed, however they stick closely to their bookings to ensure that you're not waiting around for your appointment. When I've needed an appointment in a hurry, I have found them to be extremely flexible and helpful in fitting me in at a time that suits me. You simply don't get this kind of personal service anywhere else - that's why I think they're simply the best !
For years I had visited the chinese nail bars and had always felt worried about the damage I could be doing to my nails.Now I go to Illusions it is much better they don t grind my nails with power tools and I can have a conversation in a relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff.I recommend Illusions for any treatments and will not be going back to the other nail bar.
Wonderful service, relaxed and friendly atmosphere thanks to Maddie. Wouldn't go anywhere else now to get my nails done.
Sorry me again i did not post right the 1st time this experience is not just highly recommended the whole experience is truly exceptional thankyou maddie
What a wonderful experience! I always wanted a spray tan but was very nervous about going somewhere, Maddie was brilliant she made me very relaxed and she was very professional it only took 10mins and it shows straight away!i strongly recommend you visit this beautiful salon and let Maddie work wonders on you, you will not be dissappointed
I found Maddie using this website. I had always used acrylic on my nails and was a little worried about going over to gels. I changed to gels in January but did not like te finish where I was going at that time and so telephoned Maddie.Maddie was lovely, and reassured me instantly. Maddie was very accommodating with making me an appointment. When I went I thought the salon was so welcoming, I have never enjoyed having my nails done so much. Itʼs so relaxing, and generally quite a laugh chatting with Maddie whislt getting your nails done too. Now five people have followed me, Iʼve never been happier with my nails. Thanks Maddie!!
Having been a customer of Maddieʼs for several years now, I cannot rate ʼIllusionsʼ highly enough! Maddieʼs professionalism, chat, knowledge of her craft and genuine warmth make you look forward to each appointment! My nails look fabulous, and I love the chance to change my nail colour at each visit. The new salon is fantastic, but it is Maddieʼs personality and talent that makes me go back again and again. Well done, Maddie, on being nominated for Best in Norwich, Your a STAR!!
Absolutely fabulous !!, Superb salon, totally spotless, I look as if I have been on a fortnights holiday to somewhere warm and exotic !!Maddie couldnʼt be more welcoming and puts you at ease from the minute you walk through the wonderfully stylish salon doors.A*******
I have been a confirmed nail biter for over 30 years. I was going to try hypnosis as everything else had failed. Then I met Maddie! I now have long nails that all my friends and family have complimented me on. They are very strong and long lasting, although when I did break one, Maddie fixed it pronto - and for free! Thoroughly recommended. All biters should make an appointment now.
I have been to maddy about 5 times. She is by far the best that have done my nails,I love getting my nails done so relaxing and they always look great. The salon is lovely.So glad i found Maddy

Maddie always makes you feel very welcome & it is a pleasure to have my nails done with her. Hope to try the spray tan soon!!
Maddie has been doing my nails now for a year, i always get complimented on the way they look. I had a spray tan done for my 18th birthday weekend, it looked great and lasted a week. I would always recommend her to my friends and family.
I have been having my nails done by Maddie in a salon for a number of years but to visit her in this one to one location is far more relaxing and enjoyable.
I have been having my nails done by Maddie, who I now consider as a friend, for 5 years, it is a truly relaxing atmosphere. Maddie always has time to chat, you are never rushed, she listens to all your troubles in a professional and confidential manner, it is time away from the norm. to recharge your batteries and you come out feeling calm and relaxed ready to face the world again. I would highly recommend a visit.
Illusions is a lovely relaxing place to be pampered. I have been having my nails done here for nearly 2 years and they always look stunning. I receive so many compliments on how good my nails look. I will be trying the spray tan soon!

Wow! What a great experience, great service in lovely surroundings. My nails look great. Maddies professional pleasant manner makes for a wonderfully stress free experience. Go on, treat yourself.
I have been having my nails done by maddie for a couple of years now. She does a wonderful job and they have never looked so good. I even tried a spray-on tan and was amazed by how long it lasted and how stunning it looked. The new salon is a lovely place to go and relax away from the hustle and bustle, a place of calm and tranquillity where you can get your nails done and enjoy a chat, amidst beautiful surroundings. Not to be missed.
I have just had gel overlays on my nails and WOW!!! They look so stunning I can’t stop looking at them. I’ve had my nails done at various places in the past and it’s been a painful experience. Maddie has made my nails look and feel fantastic, her salon is extremely inviting and relaxing, I felt so pampered. I look forward to my next visit.
Maddie has been doing my nails for a couple of years now, and it is one appointment I always look forward to. Not only do you get a professional and friendly service, my nails always look brilliant. As for the new salon, is stunning. Maddie has managed to create an environment that is bright, stylish and very inviting! Excellent!
I have been having my nails done with Maddie since 2002 and having seen the results from other technicans I can truly say she is an artist. Illusions has a calm, warm and private atmosphere. You are treated as a person with 1 to 1 consultation and treatment. I would heartily recommend Illusions to everyone.
I get both my nails and spray tan done with Maddie, and they are both always done fantasticly. i always get comments on how lovely my nails look, and how my spray tan looks so natural. there is a really lovely relaxed atmosphere in the salon, i always look forward to my appointments.
Maddie has been looking after my nails for two years and I wouldnʼt trust anyone else. Her new salon has a warm and friendly atmosphere and Maddie always makes me feel very welcome. All my friends and work colleagues always comment on how lovely my nails look. Maddie also carries out excellent spray tans aswell.
As a loyal customer of Maddieʼs the new salon adds to what was already a very professional service combined with plenty of friendly and welcoming little touches. Far from being a chore, itʼs an absolute pleasure to come and have my nails done and I know the results will always be first-class. The pedicures are great too and I can recommend the spray tans - fabulous, long lasting, and natural-looking - and no awkwardness at all!
