Inspired by friends and family members who found success in the nail industry in the United States, a new generation of nail techs rises in Vietnam.
In March 2012, Miss Professional Nail vice president Mike Vo installed the first executive board of the Vietnamese-American Nail Association (VANA), a non-profit organization designed to represent the interests of the professional nail industry.
Bryan Vu and Hanna Yakavenka create nails fit for a royal ball with 3-D butterfly nail art using Gelish soak-off gel-polish and Morgan Taylor nail lacquer. The nails are inspired by Cinderella's dress and glass slippers in Disney's live-action movie.
Prompted by the desire to create her ideal salon, esthetician and nail tech Victoria Vo sold her nails-only business and opened up a full-service location just two miles away. Decorating it herself and offering the services she’s always wanted, Ku’tur Nail Lounge and Salon has ended up being just right, the second time around.
