Week 28: Improving on Giving Myself Acrylics
It was a slow week after the holidays.

SEARCHMENUSEARCHIt was a slow week after the holidays.
My chair was booked all week! I also got to do some nail art for my daughter.
On one hand I’m so excited to approach the end of this difficult journey, but on the other hand I'm like, "What am I going to do with myself once I'm done?"
From giving my cosmo classmate a super long sculpted nail with custom art to repairing a nail biter's nails with acyrlics, this week was very successful.
I'm sharpening my skills, building clientelle, and prepping for the big day!
Even though the week was short due to Thanksgiving, I managed to fit in a sculpted set for a nail biter, and turn around a pedicure that started on a awkward note.
One of my coworkers just started her journey as a nail student, and I'm appraching the end.
As we're approaching graduation, I'm learning that client bonds are one of my favorite parts of doing nails.
We started the week off on a motivating note, attending a local trade show. The next day, I painted my daughter's nails to match her Halloween costume!
I felt exhausted, and I was in much need of a day spent with family.
I didn't have any ideas for fantasy nail art, until my classmate asked what inspires me on a daily basis. Immediately, it clicked!
I passed my test, tried out fantasy nails, and bonded with a client while listening to her stories. It was a great week!
My first client of the week didn't show up, but I chose to take advantage of my newfound freetime instead of dwelling on the mishap.
For the first time, I was able to transfer the image in my head to the actual nail.
She loved them. I'm getting better with quality, and I love seeing my progress, but I still need to work on the length of my services.
Although I started the week feeling exhauseted, everything turned around when I realized what a strong support system I have.
We came back from our extended weekend on Wednesday and aced our first test of the new module. After the test, our instructor did a demo on 3-D art.
