I am a nail content creator myself for the last 8 years and I have learned a few things myself! Whether you are new in the industry or someone who has been a seasoned nail technician trying to figure out the ins and outs of content creating, this is a great stepping stone for you! Katie goes through every detail you need in terms of setup, phone settings and she even shows an example of how to film when you have a client, which is super helpful for those who are starting out and are trying to multitask while taking clients AND filming content! While I find the details about the phones and lightings etc extremely helpful, the MOST IMPORTANT part of the class comes after that section because Katie goes through social media tips and tricks which can be very frustrating to navigate, especially with social media constantly updating. Thank you so much Katie for this amazing course and I cannot wait to implement what I have learned! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

As a Nail Tech for 30 years pivoting to ALL this new social media, this course was so helpful. I'm glad I can have access 24/7 to go back and rewatch. Katie offers tips on not just photo taking. Thank you for this course.

I started my career in the beauty industry in 2011 receiving my full cosmetology license in Oregon. I always knew I wanted to have a job where I could express my creativity! I specialize in gel nail products, e-file manicuring, and nail art. Education and sharing my knowledge with others has now become a huge passion of mine. Using platforms like YouTube and Instagram, I have been able to connect and help other nail artists. I look forward to helping nail techs boost their skills in my courses!
