On Cincy Chic’s Facebook page, we do these things called “Shameless Plug Sundays” where people can give their business (or favorite business) a shout out on our page to get it some publicity. We actually get a lot of our story ideas from this because we learn about so many great businesses that wouldn’t have been on our radar otherwise!

So, after we saw a plug for a new nail salon called “Healthy Nails by Jasna,” we decided to do a story about it (click here to read it!). I ended up liking their facebook page and friending the owner on Facebook because she’s come to several Cincy Chic events. The owner (you guessed it, her name is Jasna!) came to our most recent event, the Wearable Art Fashion Show and she said I should come in and try out her services so I did!

It was honestly one of the best shellac manicures and pedicures I’ve ever had. It did take a little over three hours for both the mani and pedi (about a half-hour longer than it’s taken elsewhere), but she really perfected every detail. I got a French on my toes and a fun bright color (called “Lobster Roll”) on my hands. The lines on the French are absolutely PERFECT and the color on my hands is even and nothing has chipped after almost a week (I’ve had shallac start chipping after just a few days).

Jasna is SUPER sweet too. I loved talking with her about how she was a Russian refugee who moved to Germany and eventually America… she’s now an American citizen who just started her own business, and shares the space with her fiancee and mother-in-law who are also in the health/wellness/beautification industries!

Healthy Nails by Jasna is located inside the Debrah Englert Salon at 4752 Orchard Lane, Cincinnati, Ohio 45236 right across the street from Trio.
