Competing as a nail tech is important because it pushes you to refine your skills, stay updated with industry trends, and set yourself apart in a highly competitive field. Our Professional Beauty competitions and partner event Nailympia hosted at Professional Beauty Autumn, challenge you to step outside your comfort zone and showcase your creativity, precision, and innovation under pressure. They also offer valuable networking opportunities, exposing you to other talented professionals, potential clients, and industry leaders. Whether you win or not, the experience builds confidence, strengthens your portfolio, and enhances your credibility - helping you grow both personally and professionally. You will get to meet and learn from our incredible judges, including the wonderful Kirsty Meakin and get support and invaluable advice from our competition directors, Jacqui and Sean O'Sullivan.
