Okay, so, I have this front porch that I’m *really* wanting to create into a nail studio/workspace. HOWEVER, it’s 3 season and so in Chicago and it’s -30 F for weeks there may be problems. Or even before that. I’m also not sure if the light through the windows would cure the polish? I’m trying not to spend an arm and a leg but thoughts on weatherizing one’s workspace?? 🙏😅

I wanted to share this little IBX before → during → after because I think the photos really show what this treatment is about. This thumb had some pretty obvious damage, and rather than just covering it up and carrying on, I wanted to focus on the condition of the natural nail underneath. ✨Enter IBX✨ What I love about IBX is that it’s not designed to just sit on top of the nail like a traditional product. It’s a treatment system designed to work within the natural nail, helping to reinforce and protect it from the inside out. Sometimes nail health means taking a step back, changing the service, reducing length, or giving the natural nail some extra attention before we worry about making it look pretty again. Press play to see the before, during and after. I’d love to know how other techs approach compromised or damaged nails. Do you use IBX? Do you treat, remove product completely, reduce length, change the service, or a combination? Always interested to hear what everyone else is doing. 👇

Spooky season is coming, let's see some of your Halloween nails you've done over the years 👀

Here is the recording for the live done today by the amazing @Celine Hays 🥳 It's super pretty! I highly recommend checking it out and giving it a go 😍

Show me your GNDA PIECES ! When I get mine back I’ll take photos and videos cameras do not do justice for screenshot. I’m excited to show you. I entered four categories. Did not place this year. I am okay with that because one day my day will come in my will be known but it’s not just about getting a medal. It’s about entering doing something scary doing something new making new friends seeing old friends getting called discounts on nail products! Learning new skills learning new techniques just everything above! Congratulations to my Girly pops that placed or even entered this year and never been in the competition you should be proud of yourself regardless of the outcome entering a big competition is scary stressful but most importantly fun and so supportive!
