Nail Art To-Go: Mobile Nail Salon Coming to Miami

"You are the art, not just the paintings on your nails."

           - Breanne from Wassaic, New York

Imagine a mobile trailer making its way around America- filled with nail polish and manicure tools, aiming to paint 500 manicures nationwide.

It was all created by one girl with a knack for community service projects, and it may be on its way to an area near you. For complete dates, visit her website, but below is an upcoming date near where I live.

What: Nails Across America at the Miami Pulse Art Fair

When: December 5-8

Where: The Ice Palace Studios- 1400 North Miami Avenue, Miami, FL

Cost: 4-day entry to fair: $25

Breanne, an artist, is the face behind this unique movement, as she calls it "Nails in the Key of Life." In her path to getting a nail technician license, Brianne knew she could fuse her passion for nail art and her appreciation for the community by bringing manicures to women all over the country.

"Nails Across America" is a cross-country road trip that will begin in New York City, and then to the West Coast, Texas, and down south.

The manicures include a hand massage, filing, clipping, nail painting, and if asked, special designs too. There is a menu in which one can choose colors, and designs like a pencil, or even a cupcake nail design.

All designs and colors offered relate to Breanne's artwork- neon orange pays homage to the junk food she paints, like Cheeto's, and the glitter blue manicures are relative to the television program "Friday Night Lights" that she depicts in her artwork.

With every manicure completed, you receive a signed and dated letter of authenticity, showing that you  participated.

The best part of this movement: All manicures will be free if Brianne gets enough funding!

Donate in order to keep Nails Across America on the move. 

The Miami New Times' website interviewed Breanne and her nail art mission, even quoting her saying "I've met so many people through this project! I gave a manicure to a cowboy in Marfa ([named] Barry), a locomotive engineer in Hartford ([named] Audrey), and an EMT in Providence ([named] Tony) to name a few."

Do you plan on attending to get a manicure done by Breanne? 

I'm deeply considering it! Being a part of this movement seems like a great way to get involved in the community, and get a unique experience of getting a manicure in a mobile trailer!

In case you're feeling inspired and want to paint your nails Cheeto Orange...

HAPPY POLISHING!
