**No New Clients** Books closed for at least the summer for new clients**

Summer is busy.. for everyone. 1) Reminder, some appointments might need to be re-scheduled if I end up needing to do any showings/real estate related.

2) And this summer, I would definitely like to spend more time with my family. Which sometimes means last minute trips..

Pretty spring color!

Fall!😍😍

More education done!🤩

Pedicures are more than just pretty toes!

Available appointments coming soon! 😃

2020.. What a year. We have gone through some trying times, & specifically with the nail industry. All the educators that stepped up during lockdowns and provided free education for us.. Who held challenges and contests and even the “rona diploma”. Forever grateful! Covid definitely took a toll on many of us. I’ve never been the tech to rush clients just to make the money. I used to joke that it was “just” a hobby. But a hobby I loved. I have loved clients becoming friends and friends becoming clients. But, as last year proved, especially in this industry, nothing is guaranteed. Clients that you’ve had for years, friends that have been clients for years, nothing is guaranteed.. it’s not guaranteed income in this industry, and I just can’t do that anymore. To all my clients, please know that I have never just “sold” you a service. Whether it be acrylic nails, gel nails or a gel manicure. I have always put 100% of my heart and passion for the service and love of art art into each service I have done. I LOVE being able to recreate all those Pinterest finds (well most).😉 I decided to take a chance and send my resume in to a company, I guess I didn’t really “believe” in myself, considering I’ve been “just a nail tech”. Before I heard back from them, I had a super emotional day with just the thought of giving up nails. Literally tears off and on. It’s all I’ve been, for years. How was I gonna start something new? And then I got the call.. Interview done and then the dreaded wait. But then I got that second call. And she was offering me the position. Me! A person who was a stay at home mom for years and a person who has been “just” a nail tech. I was filled with excitement.. I was scared.. And I was a little bit sad. But I feel this is a blessed opportunity I can’t pass. To the friends that became clients & to the clients that became friends, I thank you for supporting me and my business.. for supporting my family! The artist in me will always miss it.. I will still continue doing educational classes and my trainings, who knows, maybe one day in the future I can figure out how to somewhat get back to it. For now though, I’m going to focus on this new journey for my family and myself and see what the future brings! Thank you all again! I truly treasure you and will miss you all!💙💜

Ritual from Nailchemy Limited is so gorgeous! And looks amazing on this client!❤️❤️
