Non-sexes Art: Empower Nails

Consider yourself lucky! In this day and age, what usually would take 3-4 hours from a professional nail artist, the application of nail wraps are the quickest and easiest way to a manicure. Jumping right on the quick wave, I would like to introduce you to another piece of tangible nail art that will ensure you “confident claws”. California based, Empower Nail Art has created the only adhesive nail films on the market! With over 150 shapes to choose from, Cunnt Claws had a such a mind-blowing blast using the stencil knife to carve out and personalize the shape for each model hands.

One is never to old to learn new trick! Self-improvement is a never-ending activity and learning something new turn out to be an inevitable event at, Pink Shisha’s nail shop for aspiring nail artist trying to make their way in the nail-art market.

All hail to the, Pink Shisha team for taking the initiative to move forward with desire classes due to the demands for nail-art. One can reap significant benefits from a one-on-one nail art session and to help clarify on why, Kelly States,“Nail-art is the new craze and while we have, YouTube and other internet access, its always better to learn in person. This is a good way to get hands-on experience as oppose to looking at it on a computer screen, where you can easily miss out on something and might have tons of questions with no immediate answer”. Ready to unveil something new, I was camera ready to capture the moment and of course learn some new tricks from a pro!!!:

Rad Nails Featuring: Ria Nailz & Sleign Bells

Once again, adding to the growing list of DIY nail art goodies featured here on the, Cunnt Claws’ website- we could’nt be more stoked to present you with yet another yummy treat! (Hint…hint: just in time for the holidays).

Stimulating nothing but desire: Brooklyn native, Ria Lopez (Ria Nailz) teams up with American pop star, Alexis Krauss of Sleigh Bells to give us some fun printed nail art wrap exclusively for New York’s nail art brand, Rad Nails. Here to represent the Bitter Rival nails wraps, nail artist Ria Lopez chats with us:

Give us the inside scoop that stem the collaboration between you and Rad Nails?

The collaboration came about, because Alexis and I were discussing what would be a good way to give women something more then just a t-shirt at their Sleigh Bells shows. We felt like it would be cool to have something different specifically for women, and what better way then nail wraps!

Freaking love the complementary colors of the, pink and yellow color coordination. Individually, which single nail design is your favorite?

I don’t have a single favorite. Alexis and I designed them with all of them being our favorites!

Describe your signature nail art style? And how did these sets of nail wraps represent that?

The nail wraps were inspired by, Sleigh Bells album cover artwork- which is two bad ass guitars; one pink and one yellow with tiger stripes. I don’t think I have a signature nail art style but I do try to make some; tuff, fun, badass nails and these nail wraps definitely represented that.
