Nail Artist

As a Nail Artist, you focus on transforming nails into creative works of art through detailed and customized designs. Your role involves applying polish, gel, or acrylic nails, while incorporating nail art techniques such as hand painting, 3D designs, stenciling, or embellishments like rhinestones and glitter. You must stay up to date with the latest trends in nail fashion and have a keen eye for detail, as clients often seek out unique, personalized designs.

Beyond artistry, you also provide basic nail care services, ensuring the health of the nails and offering professional advice on nail maintenance. Creativity, precision, and customer service are essential, as many clients come to you specifically for your artistic vision and skills.
