"Marble" Your Clients' Nails With This Technique
I just learned a very cool, and unique, nail technique and I’m so excited about it! I’m not sure if this is something just done at beauty schools like mine, or if “marbling” of nails is common at salons, also have heard it called “water colors”—but in my few years in the industry, I’ve certainly never heard of it! So while it may not be new to you, the professional, it's new to me and my class and we're really excited! It's perfect for teens or for those who like to theme their nails (red, white and blue for the 4th of July, anyone??!!)
