The World’s Star Nail Artist 2023, Katy Pottle, has announced the Sparkle Squad: a membership programme to empower nail artists.
“Having worked as a nail tech for over 22 years, I know firsthand the challenges and triumphs that come with mastering nail art, says Katy Pottle. “After winning The World’s Star Nail Artist competition last year, I saw the opportunity to give the nail community a structured, supportive platform to encourage learning, sharing and growth.
“Whether you’re starting out or are a seasoned nail pro seeking to improve your skills, the Sparkle Squad supports artists at every stage of their journeys.”
The nail artist, who hosts online workshops and one-to-one masterclasses, cites the loneliness that can arise from solo working as one of the main challenges she’s encountered in the nail industry. “I want to open a space where artists can connect, support each other and build lasting relationships,” she continues.
“And being part of the Sparkle Squad doesn’t just mean watching videos – it involves staying connected to the latest trends, participating in live workshops and receiving real-time feedback. Plus, you’ll have opportunities for mentorship and personal growth that you can’t get from pre-recorded content alone.
