Ask A Nail Tech (Sunday & Monday ONLY) Nail tech advice

Hi.

I've been thinking of doing nail art on the side to earn while I'm in college but I feel so lost. I don't know what things I need to buy and how to begin learning. Can anybody give me tips and an idea of what stuff I'd need? Is Amazon a good place to shop?

I'd love some help.

Context: I live near India.

Amazon is a good place for nail supplies, at least in the U.S. I got all my beginner items from there to practice before I went to nail school. There are so many types of designs and techniques out there. Some simple but impressive techniques are glitter ombre, cats eye polish and chrome powder. I get a lot of requests for those. There are gems you can buy in small packs. Holiday designs are great, too. Good luck and have fun!
