Several international competitors threw their hat into the ring this year for a shot at the most prestigious title in the nail industry. Our judges have had the difficult task of choosing just 12 to represent the best of the best in the beauty business. This year’s finalists join us from Canada, Finland, Australia, New Zealand, and Holland in addition to the U.S. Please join NAILS and top sponsor CND as we congratulate these 12 artists who will be competing for your vote starting September 12.

Three of these 12 finalists will be flown to ABS Chicago in March for one last shot at the top spot, but only one can be named NAILS Next Top Nail Artist.

Join judges Jan Arnold, Danny Haile, Alisha Botero, Winnie Huang, the NAILS staff, our sponsors, and the nail community at large as we watch to see who will be eliminated and who will be left standing.

NAILS, CND, Akzentz, American Dawn, Artistic Nail Design, Bio Seaweed Gel, EzFlow, Gel II, Gelish, ibd, INM, Minx, Morgan Taylor, and Orly wish these 12 amazing artists the best of luck!
