My Journey to Becoming a Nail Artist
Everyone said I'd be a teacher, but I chose nails instead. This is the story of how I ditched the 9-to-5 to build Naillium and why your art is more than just a hobby.
I chose the 24/7 hustle of an entrepreneur over a 9-to-5 job, and I wouldn't have it any other way. My work is my passion, and I love creating beautiful nail art every single day.
Everyone has an opinion, but I chose to listen to my own dreams. Starting my business, Naillium, was the best decision I ever made, allowing me to build a career from my art.
The life of a nail artist means being so focused on creating the perfect set that you forget about everything else. This video is a fun look at the dedication that goes into every single design.
About My Journey to Becoming an Artist
Truth is, you don't need a corporate degree to make it. When I started Naillium in Shalimar Bagh, I was just following a vibe, but it turned into a full-time hustle. If you have been saving nail reels and wondering if you can actually make money from this, let's talk about the reality of running your own studio.
Everyone told me, 'Beti toh teacher banegi' (The daughter will become a teacher), but I knew the 9-to-5 life wasn't for me. Nail art wasn't just a hobby I scrolled through on Instagram; it was something I could build a life around. Now, I run Naillium, and I help others do the same.
This journey wasn't about finding a perfect formula. It was about learning on the go—figuring out how to do dry manicures, handling client expectations, and mastering the art of the perfect finish. I have taken all those 'oops' moments and turned them into a curriculum for anyone ready to quit the sidelines and join the hustle.
Whether you are looking for professional nail tech courses in Delhi or just want to understand what goes into building a beauty business, I keep it real. No boring lectures here. In my academy, we talk about lighting, angles for your Reels, sourcing supplies, and managing the business side of things. If you have the passion, I have the roadmap to turn it into your own business.
