We’re delighted to welcome Around the Corner Nail Studio as a new member of the Hi Business Club. Founded by Kristina Liela, Around the Corner Nail Studio is all about creating a space where privacy meets luxury, and every detail matters.

With over 25 years of experience in the nail industry, opening her own salon was always a dream for Kristina.

Kristina Liela, founder of Around the Corner Nail Studio

“A few years ago, I realized that life is too short to wait. That moment gave me the push I needed to stop postponing and finally follow my heart—and I’ve never looked back.”

Before starting her own business, Kristina had the honour of working in some of the top nail salons in Ireland, where her skills and dedication to her craft were truly appreciated. Recognising the need for something more personal, Kristina decided to pursue her dream and open her own business with the goal of creating a quiet, private space where clients could feel relaxed, heard, and cared for.

Kristina offers a full range of services including acrylics, BIAB, gels, shellac, fiberglass, medical pedicures, callus peel treatments, and classic pedicures. Tailoring every treatment to the client, she offers one-on-one attention in a calm, elegant environment.

Since starting her journey, Kristina has won several awards including being named among the Top 10 Nail Technicians, and is proud to be the 2025 Winner of the ABA Beauty Award. She also serves as an Official Judge for the International Business Beauty Awards. 

Kristina is passionate about continuous learning, always aiming to keep up to date with her training to ensure the best results for her clients, and is currently preparing for two more advanced trainings this year.

“If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: don’t wait for the perfect moment—just start. Believe in yourself, and take the step.”

Welcome to the Hi Business Club, Around the Corner Nail Studio – we’re thrilled to have you on board and look forward to working with you!
