The founder

Built from real experience.

byNadiaBlanco™ exists because the information nail artists actually need, how to get the call, how to show up on set, how to navigate Fashion Week, how to communicate with premium clients, was nowhere to be found.

Nadia Blanco is a London-based session nail artist and educator. Since 2011 she has built 168 credits across runway, campaign, commercial, editorial and covers: a long relationship with Vivienne Westwood, moving-image work for RSA Films, Diet Coke, Evian × Humanrace, Very, Ahluwalia and Y-3, and 67 runway credits across London, New York, Milan and Paris, 34 of them as lead artist. She is an OPI Nail Boss, a MOZHZHERI Certified Instructor and an ABT-accredited educator.
