Today we’d like to introduce you to Ariel Griffin-Bland.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Ariel. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
Since I was a little girl, I have always been passionate about beauty. When my grandmother noticed I liked to-do nails, she had me do her nails every Sunday for a church. Every time someone would come over to visit, I would do their nails. From there, I went to beauty school and the rest is history.
Has it been a smooth road?
There were a few struggles, my first time getting my state board exam I didn’t pass. I had to take it again and passed. That made me appreciate the journey and take my time on what I want.
We’d love to hear more about your business.
I take care of your nails, I don’t just make them pretty. I take pride in growing out my client’s nails who come to me with damage. I am known for my natural nail techniques and the time and care I provide.
Is our city a good place to do what you do?
I think it’s an excellent city to start out in, the demand for nails and overall beauty is big and I think with all the events going on you, can thrive and learn a lot.
