SCRATCH SNAP: The Rules

By Scratch Staff | 10 February 2021 | Feature, Salon & Spas

Scratch Snap is a monthly nail art challenge to create a salon-style nail design in line with a theme.

Simply snap a pic of the design on yourself, nail tips or a client – and you could be in with a chance of winning a fabulous prize.

The challenge’s rules are:

  • Entry is free!
  • Any nail system or technique can be used – it’s completely your preference.
  • The nail looks must be a reasonable salon-friendly design (created in an average appointment time)
  • Multiple entries may be submitted.
  • The nail design must reflect the month of entry’s set theme.
  • The design can be completed on yourself, nail tips or a client.
  • Each image must be submitted alongside the entry form.
  • Individual feedback is not provided.

The judges examine all the entries using the below criteria:
  • Instant impact: Does your nail design have a ‘wow’ factor
  • Interpretation of theme: Does your nail design show originality? Have you interpreted the theme in a unique way?
  • Clarity of photograph & nails: Is your image clear and completely in focus? Are the nails well photographed?
  • Nail finish: Is your nail design finished to perfection? Is the nail art executed flawlessly? Are they even in shape and form? Does the surrounding skin and cuticle area look healthy?
