I am so excited to say that my nail tech school tuition will be paid in full! Last week, the Beauty Changes Lives Foundation announced the CND|BCL|Tippi Hedren Nail Technology Scholarship recipients, and I was completely surprised and honored to have been chosen as one of the 10 winners.
For the second half of the week, we learned how to do encapsulated nails, which was much harder than I anticipated.
This week we learned more about how the salon business works. We also learned the different types of ways you can work.
This week’s highlight: a visit from a Tammy Taylor educator. She demonstrated how to accomplish the perfect pink and white sculpt. We had some fun, we learned some things, and I ordered the student kit.
Congratulations to CND for its milestone 15 years doing nails for Fashion Week runways. Here's a look back at how it all began, plus some of the amazing nail art designs that have graced the runways over the years.

At Posh’aah Nail Spa, guests are treated to pampering mani-pedis in a comfy-chic atmosphere. The owner — who quit her successful career as a mixed-use property manager in 2012 to embark on her lifelong dream of opening a nail salon — shares the story of making her dream a reality.
I’ve been doing a very good job at documenting my experience in real time via my nail-focused Instagram page.
