Omfg YUCK. These things look like shovels....im a nail tech too and I would never let a client leave with these nails...regardless of a fashion trend. That shits just nasty. The designs are ok, but the shape and the fact they dont look balanced is just wrong.

Good luck on your graduation! Your glitters and colors are looking great! It's always exciting to get those final hours in and the know that your acrylics and gels are holding up! The only suggestion I would give based on your photos is to work on your pinching technique as it looks like you are getting away from the nice natural 'C' curve you should have. There are several videos you can find online to help you esp from NAIO nails (no I don;t sell their product) to help you obtain that look. Also Tammy Taylor nails and of course, NAILS mag. has great tuts for getting a great shaping nail! Keep up the good work and enjoy your future! :)

Congrats on graduation! Proud of you for giving your clients what they ask for, and doing the best job you can for them! Good luck!

I personally don't like that style of nails but I think you have done a great job! Don't listen to that other comment, You will make some good money catering for those clients that no one else will!!

Nikki,
Good for you! Im so happy for you :)You have done an amazing
job you are a natural. Any "professional" would never come
on and criticize someone's work and cuss to get
their point across. Don't even look at that rude comment.
You have happy clients and you will be successful
in your new career. Keep doing a
wonderful job like you have! Good luck!

Congratulations Nikki!!! I think you do an amazing job and always willing to try something new. You are so talented and are making your family proud.

NIKKI,
I wanted to tell you how proud I am to say that your my friend!Your big day is tomorrow.We had a lot of fun times in school.You were highly busy with clientele in school so I know you'll be more busy out there in the real world.Your good at what u do,your damn good and don't ever let anyone ever tell you different!Im so proud of you Nikki.Luv Ya

^ewww, wtf! That Anon person obviously isn't as passionate as you are about doing beautiful nails. Clearly you give your clients what they want to make them feel happy with their nails. I feel bad for her clients, sounds like she wouldn't give them the look they want only the look she wants. That's not right. But you are AMAZING! Your nails look PERFECTLY balance and stunning as always. Forget the haters they are jealous! I am so happy for you! You are great at what you do and I know you will be extreamly sussessful! Ignore the negativity and know you have so many people rooting for you! I'm so happy for you! You go girl! Love you! <3

Congrats on Graduation! Keep giving your clients what they want (that is what truly matters) and you will watch your client list grow, never stop learning go to trade shows when you can.

While I would like to say a few choice things to the "nail tech" Anon above... I will say I have learned a lot in school one of which that is vital is that customer service is KEY!!! If my clients want a shape or design or custom art, I will do MY very best to ensure my client is pleased and satisfied with my work. I am just starting in this business, but I intend to keep my customers coming back and loyal to me because of my work and who I am as a person and as a professional.

With that being said, THANK YOU to my friends, family, clients and even those I don't know personally for your kind words and your encouragement. I truly believe I am where I am supposed to be!! I'm passionate about this new venture and I can't wait to get out there and rule the world!!! :)

Smooches!!!! Xoxoxo

Idk who the anon person is, but who the hell do u think u r. U prob don't make any money. If u r a nail tech, then u should be up with the trends. Girls love this look. If u do what u want and not what the Customer wants, u suck as a nail tech....just saying

Wow, Anon, what a horrible thing to say. I hope you treat your clients better than you do your fellow techs! Shameful. It isnt about your personal style, it is what the CLIENT wants.

Nikki, I am a student also. Your work is great, best of luck to you! I hope my nails look this great one day too :)

I was guessing if You Could write a little more on this subject? I'd be very grateful if You Could elaborate a little bit more.

I never read such beautiful article before. This article is very unique and full of surprise. I nver read this kind of article that is straighforward when regarding to the topic. Very intense kind of writing. Keep up the good and unique article writing.
