There’s something really rewarding about the moment a newer client starts to trust you. 🥹

Denise and I are still learning each other — what she likes, what matters to her, and how far I can push her outside of what she normally chooses. She knows she likes my work, but handing over the creative reins has taken us a few appointments 😂

Today felt different.

She had things she wanted incorporated, I had a vision for how to bring it all together, and somewhere along the way she finally just let me do my thing.

And LOOK 😭 The blue ombré with the red, white and little touches of sparkle came together so beautifully.

Building trust with a client doesn’t always happen in one appointment. Sometimes you earn a little more of it every time they sit in your chair.

I think Denise and I officially got there today. 💅🏻

We ALL have thoughts about other people. I’m not gonna sit here and pretend I’ve never looked at somebody and had something to say 😂

But there’s a difference between having a thought and making sure a complete stranger KNOWS they’re being judged.

Whisper about me in the car. Call your best friend later. Debrief at home. Whatever 😭 But why make somebody feel uncomfortable just for existing in the same public space as you?

I know I’m not everybody’s cup of tea. I know I look different. I know sometimes being exactly who I am is going to get a reaction.

But damn. We’re all just people trying to exist in the world.

Anyway, I got my ass up, went back to my family and had a great night. You’re not taking that from me. 😂

I SAID WHAT I SAID 😭

Baby pink. Butter yellow. Honestly… most pastels.

They look so sweet and innocent in the bottle and then you start painting and suddenly you’re fighting for your LIFE trying to get an even coat. Streaky. Patchy. Three coats later and somehow I can still see through it????

And before somebody says “just put white underneath” — I KNOWWWW. 😂 It can help. But if I need to paint an entirely different color first just to convince you to behave, YOU are the problem.

Nail techs, I need to know: what color do you absolutely HATE painting? 👀

This is genuinely how some of my favorite nail designs start 😂

I’ll see one random little detail somewhere and immediately know I need it on a fingernail.

Can I explain exactly how I’m going to do it? Absolutely not.

Can I already see it in my head? Somehow, yes.

And honestly, I think that’s when some of my best work happens. I don’t always need the whole design figured out — sometimes I just need that one little spark and then I get to figure out the rest while I’m creating.

Anyway it’s 12:43am and apparently we’re designing nails now 😭
