"It is important for our Association to assist and guide Beauty Professionals to ensure they provide the highest service quality.  High standards need to be strived for throughout the Industry (in particular Nail Technology), creating safe working practices, professionalism, and therefore excellence.  As our Industry is constantly evolving, we as professionals also need to do so. I believe this can all be achieved through knowledge sharing and positive guidance. " - Emma Fraser
