What's new in the world of nails...
After 40 years behind the nail table, I can still talk about nails all day long. I’ve watched trends come and go, tried more colors than I could ever count, and learned that beautiful nails can change the way someone feels.
Welcome to Diary of a Nail Tech, where I share techniques I’ve learned, products I love, colors inspiring me, and stories from a life spent doing what I love.
Pull up a chair—we have plenty to talk about!
