2014 NAILS CAREER HANDBOOK | 85
Nail Art Gallery is a social networking/
photo sharing site that allows you to
do more to showcase your own art,
as well as browse and get inspired
by other nail artists' work. You can
create a personal profle, become a
fan of other nail artists, and upload all
of your nail art photos in one easy-to-
share place — and it's FREE! (We've
also just added an app — download it
on iTunes. Search for Nail Art Gallery.)
From the makers of the NAILS Career Handbook comes NAILS Magazine,
a monthly magazine that is dedicated to the success of nail professionals.
Each issue includes informative articles on the topics of technique, style,
business, and health, plus in-depth feature stories. There are also freebies and
giveaways, reader nail art photos, and new product spotlights in every issue.
If you're the computer-savvy type, opt for a digital edition (it's free!), which
will make you among the frst to receive the magazine every month. You'll
be able to virtually "fip" through the pages on your computer. If a printed
magazine is more your style, then go to www.nailsmag.com/subscribe,
where you can order a (U.S.) subscription for $20/year. (The Canadian rate
is $57/year, and the rate for other international locales is $87.)
