Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my story. I am an all around nail specialist, servicing in everything nails. from manicures and pedicures to gels and acrylic fullsets, and everything in between. If I had to pick a strong suit I would definitely say its my meticulous attention to detail and precise application. whether it be a basic polish or the most intricate nail extensions, I am sure to deliver flawless application every time! I have a fetish for clean nails!

 

My journey as a nail tech started at the tender age of  7 years old. my mom bought me my first set of press-on nails and I've been obsessed over nails ever since! I can remember going to the salon with her as a child, the smell of acrylic in the air, the pictures of perfectly manicured hands on the walls, I was completely infatuated. I'd beg her to let me have acrylics but she insisted that I stick to press-on nails until I came of age to maintain a fullset. And that is how my journey as a professional nail tech really began. I was about 13 years old and desperate to have my first fullset so I went to my local pharmacy, I bought all the products and tools needed and I sat in my bedroom and did my nails. That's right my very first fullset of acrylics was done for me by me! Everyone from friends, and family, and even strangers on the streets noticed my nails and would ask "who did them." when I told them I had done them myself they would be in complete awe. "No way!" they'd exclaim. Then would come the request for me to do theirs as well. Of course i was always happy to do so! I became really fluent with nails, particularly with the use of acrylic. Before i knew it i was running a whole nail salon out of my house! word traveled fast and my clientele was steady growing.

 

When I came of age, I went to school to get certified. I had dreams of working in a high end salon but quickly realized that wasn't the path for me. I really enjoy working on a more intimate level with my clients and prefer a more private setting. It's more then just nails for me. My clients and I laugh together, we cry together, every visit is like a therapy session. And so began the birth of Nails By Keely. An exclusive luxury nail studio where you can enjoy one on one service in a high end yet down to earth setting. Nails by Keely has really taken on a life of it's own as a company, in just a short amount of time. Only three years in, and my business has grown tremendously. My books stay full and i'm super excited to announce that Nails by Keely will be branching off, to new business ventures including a full nail product line, and a school where I will be sharing over 14 years of knowledge on life as an entrepreneur and everything there is to know about becoming  nail technician!

​

I'd like to take the time to give a special thanks to my team and my support system. I'm not going to call names, if I did I would need a whole other page for each and every one of you,  you know who you are! Thank you, I love and appreciate you all! I'd also like to thank you, you who is reading this! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the continued love and support!

With love,

Keely T.
