Weeks Eight and Nine: The Journey Continues

Manicures and pedicures are always highly requested, but the temperature in South Carolina is increasing and so are requests for pedicures. I have also somehow been crowned the “Gel Manicure Queen” from my instructor. Gels are pretty enjoyable services; very easy but they require much attention to detail.

I must share the worst thing that happened to me this week: I was performing a pedicure and the client’s entire big toe nail fell off! These are the things that no one tells you may happen. It was scary and nasty all at the same time. But I handled it like a professional and ended the service.

On the bright side, I have been working with nail forms and color acrylics. Check them out on Twitter @#JudgeFree.

Until next week,
