I exceed the State Board Standards and I'm rated as a 5 Stars Safe Salon. I actually have 2 Certifications on top of other Nail Technicians; Advanced and Medical M.A.N.T This Certification is given by Dr. Robert Spalding. He's a Podiatrist featured on the Dr. Oz Show. He's a Forensic Podiatrist and Author of several books. I have completed an Advanced training in Aseptic Techniques and Autoclave Sterilization. I perform proper evaluation of the hands an feet before services I can properly service at risk/ chronically ill clients. (Like diabetics) I have the Advanced training in the recognition of the presence of possible diseases and disorders. Not to diagnose but to refer to the physician. I have a Higher education to be able to work in a Podiatric Office. I am a California Board Certified Licenced Nail Technician. I am a professional that has always been interested in providing the best services for my clients. Continuous education is very important for me, and I excel in my education.
I decided to open my own nail studio after working in 3 salons and observing the same problems repeatedly: a lack of sanitation, disinfection, and technicians driven by monetary profit rather than the care of their client. The technicians were not receptive to any encouragements to practice a high standard of care. This was exacerbated by a language barrier, as her coworkers at the time were not fluent in English. She thus realized that she would not be able to change the working conditions around her.
