My trainings were never created
to make girls feel small or intimidated.
I created them to make you leave feeling stronger, calmer, wiser and finally capable of building something for yourself ❤️
I’m really proud that some of the girls I once trained are now building their own businesses, and today we can support each other, work together and grow together in this industry🥹
Sometimes nail techs don’t need another
“quick nail training”.
They need someone to finally explain everything properly
Why one client can wear BIAB perfectly and another needs hard gel.
Why retention problems happen.
Why products are not “bad” ..
they’re just used on the wrong nail type
Why technique matters more than trends.
That’s exactly what we do during my trainings.
After 9 hours, everything starts making sense.
You stop feeling lost between products, methods and TikTok advice, and you finally understand what to use, when to use it, and why.
And honestly… that kind of mindset shift changes everything 💅
HEMA is probably one of the most talked about topics in the nail industry right now…
But instead of listening only to TikTok opinions and fear marketing, we should start understanding the chemistry behind the products we work with every single day.
Because this job is not “just nails.”
It’s technique, knowledge, chemistry and safe application combined.
In this post I wanted to explain HEMA in the simplest possible way with the help of a chemist 👩🔬
No panic
No fear
Just education
Because proper training will always be more valuable than viral misinformation online

Today was one of my last days with clients
I still have a few appointments left
but it already feels a little emotional.
I truly love this part of my job
the chats, the laughs, all the moments together🥲
A little sad… because I really love you girls so much
and so many of you have been part of my life for years 🤍
Thank u ❤️❤️
Honestly, I probably wouldn’t even make this reel if I hadn’t spoken to Sławek first.
Because when it comes to chemistry, I’d rather listen to someone who actually has real knowledge and experience in that field than blindly repeat things from social media.
That’s why I decided to speak to Sławek, the owner of Excellent Pro, who is also a chemist and has huge knowledge when it comes to nail product chemistry.
And honestly?
What he explained to me only confirmed what I already believed myself.
Reminder !!!I am NOT a chemist. I’m a nail technician and educator. So if there’s a topic connected to chemistry, I’d rather learn from someone properly educated in it than repeat random internet opinions.
One thing he explained very clearly is this:
The products we work with ARE chemistry.
Whether they contain HEMA or alternative ingredients it is still chemistry.
The key is conscious and correct work with products.
Proper application.
Avoiding skin contact.
Correct curing.
Education.
There’s this huge fear around HEMA right now, but people forget that these ingredients are also used in many other industries ,including dentistry ,and suddenly nobody calls that “dangerous chemistry”
I just think our industry needs more real education and less panic.
And no HEMA FREE does not automatically mean safer.
Sławek also said he’s happy to share more of his knowledge and prepare more real educational information about nail product chemistry, ingredients and how these products actually work 🤍

Today’s training 🤍
Today we focused on modern soft tips
And honestly… I’m so proud.
Ruby is only 16 and this was already her third day training with me — and she’s a complete beginner❤️
This work? Just amazing for someone who’s only starting.
We still have a few more training days ahead of us…
and I already know this is just the beginning for her 🤍
She’s going to be an incredible nail technician❤️

Yesterday I had the pleasure of running a 1:1 training on new generation tip extensions 🤍
We worked with the new Cloud Mousse from the latest collection and honestly… the control and finish are just next level.
This was a full 9 hour training day
No rushing No shortcuts Just real learning
This is exactly why I love 1:1 trainings so much
because I can give my full attention to my student, adjust everything to her level, and actually TEACH… not just show
For me this is the most valuable kind of education.
Not the one where you just come for a certificate
but the one where you leave with real skills and confidence
If you actually want to learn
you know where to find me 🤍
DM me to book your training.
