2004 Index of Articles

Each year Nailpro aims to keep techs informed with articles on everything from client retention to retailing strategies. But it can be hard to keep track of all that information. When hunting for an article, you don’t have to riffle through every Nailpro issue you own. Every January we publish our index of articles so that you can locate exactly what you need quickly and easily. Listings are separated by category and include title (in alphabetical order), author, issue and page number.

Back issues from this year are generally not available. You may request black & white reproductions of specific articles for a $5.00 service charge. Please call 800/442-5667 for information.
