"I figured it out — and I came back to tell you everything."

About five years ago I hit a wall. Lifting was constant. The messages from clients saying their nails had come off were coming in regularly and I had no idea how to fix it. If I'm being completely honest, I didn't really know what I was doing. My confidence was in the gutter.

In a last ditch attempt I booked onto a Russian manicure course. And it quite simply changed my life. Now I teach full time — working with nail techs who feel exactly how I felt. Lost, frustrated, confidence completely gone.
