Talonted is not a noisy, bustling salon with multiple Technicians working on multiple clients. Talonted is by appointment only and consists of an independent State of Florida Licensed Nail Technician (LNT) who is also a trained MediNail Advanced Nail Technologist (M-ANT) and Certified Medical Nail Technician (MNT). These advanced certifications assure you that I am serious about my work, and that you can rest easy knowing that I follow aseptic procedures to keep you healthy and safe when you receive my services. My MNT certification required an Internship/Proctorship under the direction of a licensed Podiatrist, providing additional, more in depth and hands-on training to ensure the knowledge and skills required to recognize potential issues for which a medical professional might need to be consulted, as well as those required to perform safe pedicuring services on at-risk persons, such as those with diabetes and cardiovascular conditions. These more at-risk persons, particularly, should not be receiving nail services in an everyday, run-of-the-mill nail salon or having pedicures done in whirlpool-type footbaths.
I enjoy and am adept at the timeless and classic art of acrylic nail sculpting - building nails on special forms, tailoring your new nails to your fingers and hands.
I desire to educate my clientele, making them informed consumers at every turn. The cosmetology industry as a whole is changing at a feverish pace, and proper sanitation/disinfection/sterilization, as well as other, rising health and safety concerns are making their way to the forefront. I employ the use of an AUTOCLAVE (exceeding State requirements) for sterilization of implements that are reusable and able to be put into such a device. Reusable implements not autoclave-safe, such as some that are plastic, are carefully disinfected after each use or are otherwise handled with hospital-grade liquid sterilant. Even if you decide not to patronize Talonted —which I certainly hope won’t be the case — be observant wherever you receive your services. A Technician putting on a mask and/or gloves means nothing if she or he isn’t properly educated, trained, and following through with everything else that keeps you safe.
I take pride in my work and value your health and safety, and I absolutely refuse to compromise by cutting corners in terms of technique, tools, product and sanitation methods. When you leave my chair I want you to leave pleased, assured that you have received your money's worth and knowing that you matter. These things genuinely mean the most to me, as you are also leaving my chair wearing my name and work on your hands and/or feet.
I am committed not only to continuous, advanced education and staying on top of topics and trends, but also to staying ahead of the game. Keep an eye out for even more notable achievements, advanced certifications and other good news geared towards making *your* Talonted experience a safe and great one!
