FingerNailFixer® Blog
Blogging since 2010, FingerNailFixer® as a brand ideal is an industry advocate that believes in education for all.
As the FingerNailFixer®, I look to share information, education and resources to help nail professionals advance the industry by advancing themselves individually.
Past Blogs can be found on the NAILS Magazine website, I'm so thankful to Hannah, Cyndy, Judy and so many others at NAILS for giving me a start in blogging so many years ago.
