All Things Nails

 Issue 1

December 1998

 Welcome to the first All Things Nails newsheet.  Hopefully, if things go smoothly this will be the beginning of the All Things Nails Nail Art reference book.  The main reason for this newsheet is to bring Nail Technicians in contact with each other, a kind of Chat Line on paper if you like.  The first issue is mainly about me and what I do and why I do it!  The following issues will have pieces written by you and other nail techs in it.  I want to know what your ideas and thoughts about the nail profession are. 

If you have any problems which are bugging you, eg you just can’t manage to get a perfect smile line in your acrylic application or you’ve run out of ideas for advertising, anything, please let me know.  Your question will appear in a future issue and with all of us and our knowledge we will come up with an suggestion to help you. 

Each issue will have nail art ideas and instructions on creating glorious designs both freehand and with airbrush.  The nail art featured in this issue was created by me and I hope I have given you couple of new ideas.  I know nail art can be quite frustrating when you’re asked to create something for your client and your mind goes blank!  It’s hard to come up with new designs for each client especially when you don’t get a chance to see what anyone else is producing for their client.  This will give us a chance to show off our work amongst ourselves.  If contact numbers are shown with the nail art then the artist is willing to talk you through the design if you need help to re-create or vary the nail art.
