Congrats to the 2016 Scratch Stars!

Oddly enough, when looking at the stats on my Facebook and YouTube, my largest following comes from across the pond in the UK. Therefore, I like to keep up with the happenings over there and support our nail friends around the world! The Scratch Stars Awards is a contest open to professionals in the UK that have a little extra shine that comes through in their passion for education, safety, and service.

Congratulations to the 2016 Scratch Stars!!!
