update on the client I sent home with 9 NAILS?! and her new set is STUNNING. 🪞🥀✨ what do we think of this new set?! #nails #nailtech #nailhealth #stainedglassnails #gelxnails #nailtutorial #watchmework

client left with only 9 nails?! story time + watch me work 💅🏼 DISCLAIMER: we BOTH decided it was best to leave the pinky nail alone and let her grow back without the weight of an extension. This can definitely be repaired with silk wraps + nail glue or gel but my client was feeling extreme pain and the last thing I wanted to do was add anything that would further cause her discomfort. 🩷 #nails #nailtech #nailartist #gelxnails #nailcracked #nailbreak #beginnernailtech #nailtechadvice #foryou #foryou

watch me do my client’s nails + 2 months retention?! 💅🏼 As someone who started with acrylic and has now transitioned to specialize in Gel-X, I am tired of the narrative that Gel-X and Gel artists are not real nail techs. Why are we having this discourse? If you are doing the prep, doing soak-offs, caring for the natural nail state of your clients, properly sanitizing and disinfecting, know about nail disorders and diseases, provide good retention, and are licensed or working towards getting your license… YOU ARE A NAIL TECH. We are already one of the least respected service providers in the beauty industry, so let’s not continue to create division within ourselves. it’s insane that we are still having this conversation. Times change, products evolve, and people choose to specialize AND THAT’S OKAY. if we want the industry to continue to be respected and lucrative, it starts with us — by valuing our own work and each other’s work. xoxo, Steph 💋
