Confessions of a Nail-holic

8 Years ago I had never even wore nail polish, let alone extensions.

So where did this obsession with nails come from? To answer this, lets rewind 8 years;

Back in 2008 I had been working for 5 years in a small bakery in the lovely little town of Ashbourne. It was a tough job, but at the same time a job I enjoyed. so after 5 years of working horrendous hours and wishing that at 2am i was tucked up in bed rather than icing donuts, my life changed... and so did the size of my belly.

I know what you're thinking too many cream cakes on the night shift (although this is probably true), I actually had my very own bun in the oven. My bun in the oven has now turned into a funny, amazing, happy little 7 year old girl who goes by the name of Lilly. Lilly is my best friend and the reason I changed my career path.

After an amazing 9 solid months with my baby girl, going back to working the hours I had, was not a happy thought at all. It was then i started looking into doing a job in which I could work around my family. I looked in to doing a beauty course which would mean I would have to go to college 2 days a week. Im lucky enough to have a very supportive Husband, Mum and Dad who looked after Lilly while I studied. After 2 amazing years at East Midlands college, I found a love for nails during my manicure part of the course, I could finally do the one course I was desperate to do NAILS!
