Hi! My name is Ariana Robinson, and I have a lifetime's experience of being an artist and over 13 years of experience as a nail tech, specializing in elaborate hand painted and personally customized nail art. I graduated from cosmetology school in 2012 and have spent the years since obsessively mastering my craft through various forms of free internet content, paid continued education, and my own personal creative exploration. I have come to a place where I have a wealth of information that could help shorten the many learning curves that I experienced throughout my career, for others. I want to help you get there quicker! I think nail art is such a fun form of self expression that boosts people's mood, makes them feel beautiful and allows them to adorn their body in a celebratory way. It's such a fun and personal art form! I think that there are so many fun tools and products on the market today that allow us to create detailed work in shorter time and with less effort, but also having the foundational skills of hand painting and building from scratch will allow you so much more freedom, flexibility, and the ability to do a lot with very little - you can truly customize things for your clients nails and using what you already have! This industry is such a wonderful opportunity for creativity to flourish on both sides of the table and I want to help make that magic happen!
