Behind the Scenes: My Nail Art Journey in Mumbai
From a study-table startup to my own Lower Parel studio, here's the real talk behind my nail art obsession. Welcome to my nail dates.
When the design is imaginary but the expectations are real. I love the challenge of bringing my clients' unique ideas to life.
The struggle is real when a client decides on their nail art after the base coat is already on. But we always make it work.
To everyone who says long nails are impractical, I have two words for you. Watch me prove you wrong.
That feeling after your nails are done and you can't stop showing them off to everyone. "Dekho na guys, bas dekho."
Being a nail tech trying to do a voiceover reel is a struggle. The concentration is intense.
How others see my nails vs. how I see them. The perfectionist in me always notices the tiniest flaws.
When a client says they get their nails done regularly but then makes a rookie mistake. It's all part of the fun.
The different types of business meetings I have. Sometimes it's a therapy session, a gossip session, and a nail appointment all in one.
"Client ka pata nahi but apne progress se MEI khush hu." Feeling proud of how much my skills have grown.
A little PSA for my clients. If you can see your nails perfectly, it probably means I can't. Relax your hands so I can work my magic.
About My Journey & The Vibe
I’m a total perfectionist when it comes to prep because I’m building a brand, not making instant noodles. When you book a session at my Lower Parel studio, it’s not just a quick appointment; we’re going to chat, maybe share some secrets, and I’ll make sure your nails are healthy, not just pretty. I’m an introvert at heart, but I love the genuine connection I make with every client who sits at my table.
Honestly, I never thought I’d be here. I started with a tiny study table and a dream, constantly doubting if I could actually pull this off. That 'Nahi ho raha mujhse' feeling was real, but it pushed me to create a space that felt different. My home studio in Lower Parel isn't about rushing you through a service; it's a dedicated space where we can actually talk, relax, and focus on what your nails really need.
Everything I do comes back to one rule: beauty should never cost you your health. That’s why I only use TPO-free products. I’ve seen what harsh chemicals can do, and I don't want that for you or for me. Whether you’re coming in for a Russian manicure to clean up your cuticles or you want those wild cat-eye designs, I take my time. I’m the person who will re-buff your nails between coats just to get that perfect, flawless shine because I care about the finish as much as you do.
Being a nail artist in 2024 is 70 percent content creator and 30 percent actual work, but the best part remains the same: the smile on your face when you finally stop showing off your hands to everyone. If you’re nervous about drills or just unsure what style suits you, don’t stress. This is a judgment-free zone. Come over, let's pick a vibe, and let's get your nails looking aesthetic as hell.
