Texas put on a networking event in Houston on February 22. It was the first of its kind and had a great manufacturer turn out. There were several classes to choose from with additional private classes offered the day after through the individual educators or companies.
From a company point of view, I have come to love the networking events for nails far more than the larger shows. You actually get to spend a bit of time with the nail professionals discussing their questions and/or concerns in an environment where you can hear each other clearly. Some of the companies that made a showing in Houston were: LCN, Elite, Empower Nail Art, IBX, Light Elegance, Akzéntz, Amy Becker, Crystal Culture, Salon Gurus, and Renee Parnell Airbrushing
