Sorry for the lack of posts lately, I tried prioritising and focusing on my uni work in my spare time instead. But as we all know nails are much more fun! So here are my simple tribal/Aztec inspired nails. :)

Shellac / Jailbreak (AC/DC)
I got to play around with an idea I’ve had for a while last night. The final product for a very lovely lady with much patience!

What a wild ride!
I had no idea what to expect when I entered Beacon. I just thought, “what’s the harm? Worst case scenario I get a no and a kick ass resume.” And then I became a winner and thought, “Well, now what.” So, I decided to go because I figured again, what’s the harm. Aside from getting little to no sleep the worst I would do was learn something. And maybe have flash backs to sitting in college lectures. I promise you, all of that happened. But I also met some really great people! Surprise, surprise, I was expecting to just have to go it alone.
So, they didn’t talk about nails and almost everyone did hair but there were still messages that resonated (and some that didn’t. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). Like, hope. Hope for the industry’s future and hope for my future as a person in the industry. I learned what I wanted and where I wanted to go and how to get there. I heard some of the most amazing stylists speak about all sorts of things. I saw runway shows and winners at NAHA.
It was long. It was tough. Some times I wanted nothing more than to take a nap. And it was worth it.
Thanks to all of my friends and my school who pushed me and made me do this and prepared me. The gift of going to an event like this for someone like me is invaluable. For someone who has big dreams but low self esteem to see what could be has been motivation to get moving on my future now.
Wish me luck!

My attempt at some abstract nails using a dry marble technique and shellac. I am absolutely loving the purple!

I made my friend let me do her nails yesterday. I wanted to have some more practice doing some fun things with shellac. There’s definitely some things I want to change. It was a good learning experience.
On a side note, I’m accepting nail clients if you happen to be in the Portland area and want to come in! Feel free to shoot me a message here if you’re interested.

I tired drag marbling with shellac. Can you tell which ones turned out right?
I will definitely be trying this again maybe getting a little more crazy than just the one line. So far, working with shellac has been awesome! It is the greatest gift ever given to an impatient nail enthusiast!

#mayvinylchallenge by @jennn_erator Day 26: Highlight a Producer. My favorite producer bar none (though he prefers “engineer” or “recorded by”) is Steve Albini. He is devoted to capturing what the band and the room really sound like, in glorious analog, and no one mics a drum set like he does. I don’t own his most (in)famous production, Nirvana’s In Utero, on vinyl, but here are four of my favorites: his own band Shellac’s masterpiece 1000 Hurts, PJ Harvey’s Rid of Me, The Jesus Lizard’s Goat, and the oddball of this bunch, Joanna Newsom’s Ys. All of them crackling performances that make you think you’re in the room with the musicians.
