Hello

Well hello chickios!!

I signed up a few years ago and was going to start a blog, but one thing and another and it never did quite happen. So as its a nice Sunday evening  (still light!...British summer time is here, big yay!) and the other half is at work, I have some time one my hands to dedicate to actually starting.

I guess I'd better introduce myself, my name is Jessica Marks and I am a nail technician. (sound like I was going to say alcoholic....lol I'm not one honest!) I love anything to do with nails, cosmetics, design and all things crafty too. I own my nail salon business (Polished) and am also an EzFlow Nail Systems Master Artist Educator.  I have been in the nail industry since 1997 and haven't really looked back since leaving college.  I became an educator for EzFlow in April 2002 and have gone on to achieve so many of my career goals,  I keep having to find new one to strive for!!

I think the aim of this blog is to let you all into my crazy little world and hopefully you will all enjoy and share in my passions for everything and anything fabulous!!


This week is going to be a busy one:
Tomorrow I am going to visit East Surrey College and spend the morning with a lovely lady Mandy Smith and her students, letting them know all about the nail industry and of course I am going to do some fab EzFlow nail demos.  Then in the afternoon I have been asked to judge the nails for the colleges annual fashion show, which is a real honour to be invited back as I judged last year too.
I will be taking pictures and will post all about my visit soon.

I am teaching a total tech class in the evening, we are going to do our first class of acrylic hands on, I hope my students are excited, they are getting their hands on their fab EzFlow pro acrylic kits.......its going to be a lot to take in but I know they are going to love nails just as much as I do!


Other stuff happening this week is the big move 2011.  My years contract for my salon/office is up on the 31st so Polished is moving across town, from Friday we will have a new (bigger) home. Very excited about that one, fingers crossed it all goes okay and I don't lose anything in transit!! 
Just so my clients on Saturday don't forget and end up in the wrong place little reminder text messages will be sent.
My lucky boyfriend has the task of decorating my new polished home, so it will be white and bright. I will definitely be posting more on our big move v soon so please watch this space!

As in life I can talk for England so it think is time I finish my first post before it becomes an essay! (its also got quite dark out now, boo!)

happy reading chickios!
