Successful Graduate – Fabiana Turina

In my nail work in Italy I had used the old three-phase gel method and I thought I now needed to catch up with the new nail products and techniques so I decided to do my second course with Essential Nails, the Gel Nail course. I passed this in October 2015 thanks also to the help that the ladies from EN gave me.

My love for doing nails and studying hard to fulfill my dream of being a successful nail technician didn’t stop there, so in April 2016 I passed the Spa Manicure and Spa Pedicure courses with flying colours. Because here in England acrylic nails are more in demand than in Italy, where gel nails are really popular, I recently decided to do the Acrylic Sculpting course so I could expand my knowledge. I must admit, I nearly gave up right at the start because the smell of the acrylic product seemed too strong for me, but even here the ladies at EN gave me great advice on how to deal with the pong, and now I don’t even notice it and I’m loving using this new technique. I am still working through this course because I needed a break to take care of some health issues with my lower back.

I love that with Essential Nails you can take time off when you are sick or super busy and when you are ready you can restart your course from exactly where you left it without losing any lessons or money.

My husband really knows my passion for nail art and everything Japanese (I love Japanese animation, art and of course, sushi!) so he enrolled me in the EN Master Tokyo One Stroke course that I have just started and like the other courses I have done I am totally hooked!

In April I enjoyed entering a fun writing competition with Essential Nails where you had to write a story for “Gelaze The Musical” using as many songs with titles that were also Gelaze colours. I couldn’t believe it when Nadine from EN called me to say that they loved my story and I had won! I was so happy I could have sung… but I didn’t (thankfully!)

Now that I have started my home-based nail business called Sakura Nails by Fabiana Turina and I have got my Facebook page I can see that my beautiful dream of becoming a successful nail technician is starting to become true. Thanks to my husband that has always believed in me and thanks to Essential Nails for being there when you need them, just a call or an email away.

All I need now are some new clients so I can pay for another great course with Essential Nails (maybe Gelaze Nail Art) and buy some other fantastic products from them.
