Tara Does My Nails

Pretty obsessed with how these turned out 😍😍 all hand painted, SO stinkin pretty!!

Your girl slang the nails today!! Not pictured: 2 separate hand painted French tips, 2 Nudie full sets, and a mini gel mani (she was like 9)

Youngest today was 9, oldest was 83!! Just goes to show you never outgrow your bougie side 🥰🥰

What a difference a good haircut & some layers can make 🥰

What they looked like.
What she left with!! 🥰 2 week fill & rebalance/clean up! I’m loving the brighter colors!!

Hair days with BIG dramatic changes are always a good time!! They are only made better when you get to spend them with a doll of a client!!

We took this grown out blondie to a bombshell burgundy brunette, with a *SPICY* surprise underneath 😘

We definitely changed the look!!

I will NEVER judge someone for doing their own hair….if I told you all the stories of my “hair adventures” prior to being licensed, it would scare you 🤣 this was a BIG undertaking. For ONE shot with it, I couldn’t be more pleased. Her happy dance at the end let me know she was too 🫶🏻

Color Corrections can be finicky, but the hair gods were smiling on me today!

First go with new toys and graffiti nails!!!! Now I need to look at ALL the graffiti nails 🤣🤣 these were fun!!!

I have openings if anyone is needing nails before Valentine’s Day!! 🫶🏻 message me for availability!

Of the 7 beauties I saw today, I remembered to take pics of 3 🤣 yall this is hard 😆

Anyways, YES - THESE ARE ALL MY CLIENTS ACTUAL NAILS! No tips, no forms, no nothing. Complete overlays. Would you believe that if I didn’t tell ya? And they all started at nubs. I love my natural nail love, and the pride my girls take in their nails being long and pretty 🙂 or short and sassy 😉

I made this big long post, and it didn’t post, so this is round 2 🤣

If you’re new here - HI! I’m Tara 🙂 I’ve been a licensed Cosmetologist for about 14 years and have been doing hair and nails ever since. I’ve recently stepped away from doing hair to focus solely on nails.

I offer services from basic gel manicures, to acrylics and everything in between! I offer 6 different systems, but I specialize in Natural Nail Love. I use a hybrid hardener to offer strength and stability to natural nails, allowing them to remain strong and grow! While still being able to do all the fancy jazz art you could possibly want 🙂

I have a good client base, and have been At Lions Mane for about 2 years now. Stepping out of hair has allowed me to open my books for new nail clients and I couldn’t be more excited!! I offer early mornings (I start at 7:30am), daytime availability, and every other Saturday! Sundays and Mondays are also available by appointment. I DO NOT do walk-ins. I have limited evening availability, and book your next appointments day of to ensure you get the time slot that fits you best!

At this time, I do not offer online booking. I am old school and keep a hard paper book. If you’re interested in getting on my books, comment below or just shoot me a message 🫶🏻

I look forward to working with you and making your creative nail goals a reality! XOXO Tara
