About Lauren
Originally born and raised in South Africa, I’m now living as a permanent resident in the beautiful city of Auckland, New Zealand. Nails and nail art have always held a special place in my heart. I’m a perfectionist when it comes to creating flawless designs and ensuring every detail is just right.
I’m not just a nail technician...I’m a teacher at heart. My mission is to share my knowledge and skills with both beginners and nail techs alike, helping them understand essential aspects of nail care, hygiene, and the correct techniques to avoid damage to client’s natural nails. Nail care isn’t just about making nails look beautiful; it’s about ensuring they’re healthy and well-maintained for the long term.
When I’m not working with nails, you can find me sipping on a good cup of coffee with a friend or two, tending to my indoor house plants, going for a run, or soaking up the great outdoors. I believe life is short, and it should be lived to its fullest potential, filled with joy, positivity, and growth. I’m happily married to my wonderful husband, and together we embrace each new chapter with faith and gratitude.
I truly believe that I’m exactly where I’m meant to be, doing what I love, and I can’t wait to share that passion with you.
