During the event, Nail Harmony revealed their newest project, Beauty Talk Radio. Created by brothers Jason and Mark Smedley, the station will go live on August 1st and provide 24/7 audio content for listeners. “BTR is made up of uplifting music, great guests, and only ever good news,” Jason explained. “Heaven for beauty professionals and their clients!”
The winner of the #cherishgelish competition was also announced during the event. Attendees got to view the final five entries and vote for their favorite with applause. Kayleigh Morgan won the biggest applause and will enjoy an all-inclusive trip to Mexico in September.
Finally, Georgie Smedley brought Cristopher Kitchen to the stage to talk about his business. Kitchen founded Book in Beautiful, a tailored salon bookings service that is currently offering a three month free trial for all mobile therapists and salon owners.
At the end of the night, Nail Harmony invited guests to ditch the heels, and provided flip flops to save any aching feet—a memorable end to an exciting event.
