Ok so I have been going around getting compliments on my nails left and right and had to share this new experience I recently had with you guys! I love going to the Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills because of their amazing spa and recently went in to test out this new thing they are doing called Tatz Nailz. I have heard of wraps, free-hand art, etc, but this is a whole new technology. The best way for me to describe it is to tell you it seems like a printing press on your nails. Here’s the skinny:
Go in and start with a mani. Start looking through this book with what seems like hundreds of nail art designs and decide which ones you want – how many, where and then you can get the same thing on a few fingers or every finger or something different on every finger. You choose a simple polish like black, white or beige and then goes on a UV nail coat. As you can see in the photo below, each finger that you are getting nail art on is then wrapped up so the ink doesn’t get on your fingers. Then the manicurist selects all of the prints you want and one-by-one you insert your fingers into this machine and the print is printed on. You feel basically nothing, it takes less than 30 seconds and then it comes out dry and done! She did a top coat to seal it in and voila! The coolest mani ever – super fast and affordable compared to a lot of free-hand nail artists!

Something even cooler – the machine also has a camera in case you want a print that you have on you so you can get it photographed and ingested into the system, or the same with a USB port (like photos of your boyfriend or dog!) I swear the technology these days kills me! Anyway check it out and hopefully they will be at salons all over soon!
This is too cool! Thanks for sharing with us! x
