Lupe Luis of Lancaster, California
Lupe talks about how she got interested in the Nail Industry:
I got my first set of nails when I turned 15, and after that I was hooked! Ever since then I’ve had my nails done. I’m so fascinated by the process and the creativeness of the nail techs, that I watch my nail girl do my nails and I won’t look away.
