    I love having beautiful nails and I love wearing dark colors especially in the colder months. But, I have been noticing that my cuticles are looking rough! And they are not even. I don’t always have time to go to a nail salon. But, what should I have on hand to care for my cuticles? Or what should I do?

      Hi girly! I have a few simple tricks you can do at home to keep your cuticles looking fab! After you get out of the bath, gently push back your cuticles to make them all even. This helps because your skin is still really porous from the water. You can also use oils and creams on your cuticles after a bath, washing your hands, or cleaning. This helps keep them hydrated and looking great!

    Hi Amy,
    I have a mobile mani question.
    When doing a group, say wedding party or girls night, how much time do you allot total and per individual? Do you charge a flat group rate?
    How many people do you allow per group?
    Thanks so much!!

      Hi Tanya! I typically allot 30 minutes per client when I’m working on location. If I have a larger group, I will cut that down to 20-25 minutes depending on the time restraints. I also will charge a single group rate at a discount if the group is larger than 5 clients. That way your clients get a good deal, and they are encouraged to all get services which adds up to a great profit! :)

    Hey Amy, I have read your blog posts for ages now and really enjoy them! I want to grow my blog and even start a YouTube channel and was wondering since you have been able to grow followers in both, whether you would have any tips or tricks?

    Also, would you maybe even be able to share my blog and/or my youtube channel?

    Now worries if not, just thought I’d give it a try,

    Hope xxx
