80 | NAILS MAGAZINE | DECEMBER 2015 Person * Place * Thing A third-generation beauty profes- sional, Morgan Lucas became a nail tech at 17. In July of this year, at the age of 20, she opened her own sa- lon, Stay Polished Nail Spa, in Ak- ron, Ohio. The '50s-themed salon emphasizes the glamour of that era, and plays '50s music for an upbeat mood. Lucas shared these pho- tos of a meaningful person, place, and thing at work. Person: My mom has had a huge impact on me, not just my personal life, but on my professional life as well. She started her frst business at 26 and has been extremely successful ever since. She is the one who told me she believed I could run a successful salon and encouraged me to pursue that dream. Place: This small sitting area in the front reception area of my salon really refects my personal taste and the vibe I wanted to create throughout my entire space. Thing: I found this illustration when my nail salon was just a concept. It's truly what inspired me and inspired the decor in my salon. It's featured almost everywhere, including my salon, the salon website, and my brochure.

Joining the Footnanny Mobile Tech team is easier than ever since Footnanny CEO Gloria Williams is now offering a fexible $399 line of credit. "As a nail tech for 25 years, I know that sometimes nail professionals need a little help," she says. "Usually everyone wants payment upfront, but this is different. I trust you." Williams only accepts one Independent Footnanny Mobile Tech per zip code on her team, and this person receives savings on Footnanny products — like foot creams, foot salts, and spa socks — to use during pedicure services and retail to clients for home use. New Footnanny Mobile Techs will be added to the Footnanny mobile app and welcomed to the team via Williams' social media channels.
