OK, so I already knew that my best friend Major A had the sickest nails in Brooklyn but when I saw what she got done for her birthday two weeks ago I was in absolute shock and awe. I mean I thought Minx nail coverings were hot!! But this Japanese artist Naomi Yasuda from
Hello Beautiful Salon in
Williamsburg Brooklyn is taking Nail art to another level!! I love it!

I finally was able to book an appointment with her today so I'll update you guys on how my masterpeice turns out...
UPDATE: Here's my girly girl set... Hello Kitty!! ;)

While I was getting my Nails done Naomi told me she was booked to do Amber Rose next week for a Magazine shoot.... and Jordin Sparks called in to get a Makeover at the
Glamor Garage (the sister store of Hello Beautiful)

Now don't get me wrong Minx is the ish! You can put pretty much any design on your nails and it lasts for weeks. In case you've never heard of Minx it's one of the newest crazes in nail designs and celebrities have been swearing by it due to it's stylish patterns and durability. Beyonce & Solange were two of the first fab girls I noticed rocking them:


Right now there's only one tech in NYC doing Minx designs so as you can imagine she's extremely booked up. Her name is
Honey and her # is 212-920-1066.
You can find out more on minx nail coverings online here:

Major A's Obama Minx:
tip: Minx lasts longer on natural nails than they do on acrylic.
But I think Naomi's work is so fly because it's not just a pattern that she's putting on your nails... she's creating these designs HERSELF with gel, shaping them and everything right there on the spot! Check this out:
One of my favorites:


I can totally see Gwen Stephanie rocking a style like this

Here's what A got done for her Bday!
(the pic doesn't even do it any justice. Talk about bling!!!)
Naomi's done art for Keri Hilson and Teyanna Taylor to name of few and her work has been featured in Magazines like Complex and several others. Look her up!
If you've ever gotten Minx or designs by Naomi on your nails please feel free to leave a comment. And even if you haven't... what do you think about her Nail art?.........................
