  • S3E10 The Importance of a Community

    S3E10 The Importance of a Community
    Mar 7 2023

    The nail tech community reaches millions every day and is a multi-billion dollar industry in its own right. We provide you with countless tutorials, product reviews, and funny bits throughout the day to keep both you and us going. As a nail tech, we are more than your manicurist and pedicurist. Bonds are formed and we become family, celebrating milestones, celebrations, and all of life's twists and turns. On this journey, it is important to find and have a community of professionals to help carry us through, supporting our ventures and continuing education. In this episode, I share anecdotes and advice regarding how to find and/or start a community of supporters and professionals on your nail tech and nail care journey.

    S3E6 The Robotic Manicurist
    Jan 11 2023
    Hey Good People! Robots are entering the salon this year. I told you something about 2023 felt magical. An article, “Automated Manicures Are Coming to U.S. Airports,” from nailpro.com piqued my interest. I had to come share what I found and get your input. Would you let a machine paint your nails? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nails-by-rah/support

  • S3E5: Does My Appearance Matter in the Salon?

    S3E5: Does My Appearance Matter in the Salon?
    Jan 4 2023
    The way you present yourself speaks before you can introduce yourself. My first nail salon job was working in a high traffic, high-volume, salon on the city’s Eastside and we had a lot of younger clientele or women who were older, but like to keep themselves together, with that I saw a lot of Louis Vuitton bags, a lot of Gucci bags, so you can kind of get an idea of the kind of women who would come into the salon… follow suit. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nails-by-rah/support

  • S3E4 NIC vs State Exam: You’re Kidding Me, Right?

    S3E4 NIC vs State Exam: You’re Kidding Me, Right?
    Dec 28 2022
    Hey Good People, It has been some time since I last shared a license transfer story and this one is one for the books. Not only did I submit my application in good faith, but I also spent some MONEY trying to transfer my license to the State of South Carolina, and let me just say, they gave me a run for my money. I put this episode together to share my experience and help someone else transfer their license from another state. I am thankful for this experience because I get to share this journey with you as well about getting licensed in a state with different requirements than the state I was originally licensed. I started by visiting the State of South Carolina’s Board of Cosmetology website to read the requirements before I started to put my application together to apply for endorsement. South Carolina does not have reciprocity in place with any other state and is a member of the National-Interstate Council of State Boards of Cosmetology (NIC). So what this means is proof of successful passage of the NIC exam (theory and practical) is required for new licensees. If you are licensed out of state you must request a License Verification from the state(s) where you have passed an examination and the state where you are currently licensed. The verification(s) must be mailed or emailed (Boardinfo@llr.sc.gov) from the other state board(s) directly to our office. Attached is a license verification request form if needed, we will accept a state-issued verification form. Happy Holidays! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nails-by-rah/support
