I do not cut corners with sterilization because protecting your nail bed is just as important as the design itself. Whether you are here for a workshop or a service, this clean routine is part of the experience. Many people think nail art is just about polish, but a professional manicure starts with science. I am rigorous about salon hygiene because I know how easily infections spread when tools are shared or reused without proper sterilization. My process involves medical-grade sanitation methods for every metal implement, from cuticle nippers to drill bits. I teach these exact safety protocols in every course, from my Russian Manicure masterclass to the beginner pro certification. It is not enough to make nails look good; you must ensure they stay healthy underneath. I also share simple facts, like why hydration matters more in summer, or how regular filing mimics hair trimming to promote growth. Knowing your nails helps you maintain your look longer. My Santacruz studio is designed to be transparent. You will see my station setup and my tool preparation. If you have questions about how I use UV lamps for curing or why I choose specific bits for cuticle work, just ask. My goal is to turn you into a pro, whether you are a client or a student. ## About Avni Gala I am Avni, and I live for everything related to nails.
