Doing nails?

“That must be such an easy job…”

I don’t know about other nail techs, but I sometimes hesitate when people ask what I do. There’s this assumption that it’s “just painting nails.”

The reality couldn’t be more different.

Behind every luxury manicure is a huge amount of knowledge, skill and decision-making.

✨ Nail anatomy & skin health
✨ Product chemistry
✨ Safe e-file techniques & removals
✨ Nail diseases, infections & contraindications
✨ Choosing the right product for each client’s nails
✨ Brush selection & application techniques
✨ Structure, shaping & refinement
✨ Hygiene & infection control
✨ Hand-painted nail art

And that’s before you even get to running the business…

📅 Diary management
📦 Stock control
📈 Marketing & sales
💻 Tech systems
💬 Customer service & building lasting client relationships

These photos show just a few of the refinement steps I take to create a natural-looking, long-lasting manicure while protecting the natural nail.

The little details are what make the biggest difference.

If you’re a nail tech who wants to refine your BIAB or hard gel work, improve your finishing, speed up your service or simply gain confidence, I’m putting together some 1-2-1 upskilling sessions.

💌 Comment “UPSKILL” to register your interest.

Cat eye + cherry polka dots. ✨🤍

The original brief was silver cat eye and black dots but we switched things up for this warmer burgundy combo… and I think it was the right call for summer. 🍷☀️

I’m calling it …. Summer is on its way back

If these nails don’t say summer then I don’t know what will ! ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
