Hey guys! I am looking for tips on cleaning brushes, like as I am going along and not when I'm done... Like with regular acrylic paint (not nails) I just dip the brush in water to clean it off... So for my nail art brushes I've been using alcohol (on a lint free wipe, no dipping) 🫣 I hope that's ok?? I'll use acetone every like few uses to get it even more cleaned up. (Again on a wipe and I wipe brush on the wipe and pinch it out. Thank you in advance!!!

I’m practicing box stuffing lol. I had a tooth pulled today and I was all laid up in bed sleeping…. I sat STRAIGHT UP out of bed and remembered that Erin had a box. (She’s just starting nails) I ran to the warehouse, it was already shipped. I dug it out of a tote and then I threw her package into a much larger box and stuffed it. MuuuuaaahHahahaa. I’m going to pick three winners from our challenge and I will announce them this evening. I love you guys so much. Keep up the hard work. I’m so proud of our community.

INTRODUCE YOURSELF (I legit want to connect with you and connect you to helpful people)! (I put my pic everyday I have an official work day because I'm ADHD and it helps me SHOW UP for YOU! It's like a silly accountability game, feel free to play with me.... I'll send you a PJ one on the weekends to check in haha) RIGHT NOW I'm in here every day checking in, answering questions, trying to be as HELPFUL as I can for now AS I BUILD CLASSES (you don't want anything old and crusty) and recruit my most qualified world champion friends to HELP ME TOOOOOO. I need to understand your problems to REALLY BE HELPFUL so I ask a LOT of questions. I love to solve a good nail tech problem or kung-fu your broken-ass, stinkin thinkin brain. I cuss sometimes now. I don't care if you like it or not, I can't help it. Forgive me and love me anyway or leave. I dont have time for polished professional performance in here. There's an AI bot for that and I'm not her. I'm building this thing FOR YOU ALL just about every day of the week. I want to build it FRESH with solutions to your RIGHT NOW problems, especially. What is my hidden agenda? Honestly I don't have one. I've climbed every mountain I wanted to in the nail industry. I'm going to keep as much of this FREE as I possibly can. NAIL TECH - it's NOT YOUR FAULT if you are broke, if you were taught the wrong thing, or if a technique didn't work like a video or brand or educator promised it would. THIS INDUSTRY NEEDS HELP. THIS IS ME TRYING MY EVERYTHING TO BE HELPFULLLLLLLLL because I REALLY DO LOVE YOUUUUUU. And hi, I'm Lauren. I have adopted kids all over the world lol. I'm getting the gray streak in my hair I always dreamed I'd get.... debating on whether to let it out NOW or wait a "hair" longer hahaha.
