NAILS Cover Tech Contest - Years 2004 to 2006

In the year 2000, the editors of NAILS decided it would be fun to have a nail technician reader create the cover for one issue and so we started the Cover Tech Contest. Every year, we get hundreds of beautiful entries, creative concepts, and astonishing photographs. Browse through the best of the contests through the years. If you're interested in learning how to submit material for the next Cover Tech Contest, contact Judy.Lessin@bobit.com for details.

I invested in a pedicure bowl that is indulgingly deep and the most beautiful shade of aqua blue. It looks like a piece of art; plus, it’s made of resin, which is non-porous and easy to clean so my clients have no doubt that it is safe and sanitary. — Karri Patton, Studio Karri L., Seattle

My Favorite Piece of Salon Decor

Do you have a chair or lamp in the salon that you just adore? Most nail techs do, so we asked our readers to tell us why they loved a certain furnishing.
