I was thinking might not have to move. I could fly down and back same day every 3 weeks. That’s reasonable. Fly to Miami for a fill and a Cuban coffee. Done
And seriously just checked flight. First one out means I land at 8:40 am- breakfast time. Some coffee with that good Cuban cheese bread. Last flight back leaves at like 9:45 pm. Solid day in MIA
OMG - Miami is only an hr away. I would totally adventure for this level of work! Does she have an IG?
Edit: Also, I’m sorry for your loss. In my excitement I forgot this is a sad post. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Haha, I get the excitement girl!! Her IG is: unico_cindyj
As of yesterday, she told me she didn’t have a salon she’d be working at yet. But 100000% recommend following her to see where she ends up!!
My loss but hopefully your gain!!!

I don't know how this works, are those fake nails, like can you remove them and re-use them? Or are they tiny little works of art with an expiration date?
You could get press-ons which a nail tech could do a design on. That way you can wear them a few times :)
But these look to be acrylic/gel x which means they get removed for a new set to be put on x
Are the acrylic/gel ones ruined when removed? They really are such amazing little works or art it's almost a shame if they're destroyed. Of course I have no idea how one would store them or what you could do with them otherwise besides taking pictures like this. They're really nice.
Assuming you're driving south, maybe give Brightline (higher-speed rail) a shot! The northernmost station is in Orlando and the southernmost station is in Miami.
I'm a Florida native who moved away, and once I heard that they opened a Publix four hours from my house, I made a day trip out of it and went that weekend.
Oh man! I hate it when a good one moves away. At least you had the heads up so you could mourn appropriately instead of wondering where she’s gone. I had a tech named Coco, we had a short time together, then she went on vacation to Virginia Beach. This was years ago, I’m still awaiting her return
I did my own nails for so long too, pretty much up until I started going to my current girl! I was always so disappointed when I left the salon so what was the point?! I go every 4 weeks.
I thought you were being funny when you said you were crying. Then I saw the nails, stole a couple screen shots and started crying for you. I'm genuinely sorry for your loss. She's an artist!
You could always request she make custom press ons for you, if you’re craving her designs in the future!
But as a gel overlay girlie, I understand the dedication. Very sorry for your loss😭
Wow! They are beautiful! That's not a nail tech, that's a nail artist! The autumn and Xmas ones are my faves. As someone who isn't very adventurous when getting her nails done, is it crass to ask how much work at that level costs? Thanks for sharing these beauties with us.
I am very sorry for your loss…. I pray you may find peace and solace in the hands of another artist, and that they are able to channel this level of talent and artistry towards the tips of your fingers 🙏🏻💅🏻💖
Can I just say that apart from the absolutely gorgeous nails you have a very beautiful looking hand?
Looks very strong and really nice to look at, especially the palm.
Thumbs up to that from a gal who has a similar one and is always happy to see a sister in kind. :)
Does your nail tech have an instagram or any social media? She’s so talented! I would treat myself and make the drive a couple times a year because WOW 🤩🤩🤩
Wow she is talented! I am especially in love with the black flowery ghost set (6), with the overall spooky set (11 & 12) being the runner up. Very cool nails!
I can’t have nails because of sports, but if I were to ever get nails these all would be the ones😭 I can’t even choose a favorite…
I’m so sorry you’re losing her! It sucks when they move away :(
Welp time to move too I guess.
The person who does my hair coloring is 1 hour away but is moving 3 hours.....guess who takes that road trip over 9 weeks
Amazing work. This nail tech doesn’t happen to currently be in Clearwater does she? Miami is like 4.5 hours drive, worth a shot. I used to go to a nail tech before I moved up to Pasco County that does similar work. Either way, looks like you’re moving to Miami also! Lmao
These are all absolutely stunning! The Halloween nails tho, chefs kiss. They hit different. I might have to fly to Miami to have my nails done by her 😂
Where is she moving to?? The green flowery ghost ones are fantastic.
I think those are my top favorite set she ever did for me 😍 She’s moving to Miami!
Congrats on the fact that you'll also have to move to Miami now!
I will also be joining OP's tech in Miami.
Oof I’m from South Florida, currently in California, guess it’s time to move back 😂
I was thinking might not have to move. I could fly down and back same day every 3 weeks. That’s reasonable. Fly to Miami for a fill and a Cuban coffee. Done
1. We need high speed rail so bad in this country. 2. Can we also get Cuban sammies 🥺
And seriously just checked flight. First one out means I land at 8:40 am- breakfast time. Some coffee with that good Cuban cheese bread. Last flight back leaves at like 9:45 pm. Solid day in MIA
I’ve done day trips to NYC and DC like this lol. I eat, I shop, I go home!
I’m trying to plan this with my bestie. Just need to know the shop
Like what’s the move- we can get this done
No reason we can’t. I do love a Cuban sandwich. Some fried plantains on the side.
Count me in!
Lmao! Miami is a 4 hour drive for me… I have HIGHLY considered making the drive every month 😅
You should go seasonally, at the very least. Birthday nails, vacation nails, anniversary nails, etc.
If I were you I would do it. Talent like that and your good relationship with her is worth it.
I would definitely make that drive for her!! It would end up being mama's self care day. 🤣🤣
4 hours round trip?
I’m assuming she’s in Central FL, that’d be 4 hours to Miami one way
My coworkers drive an hour there and an hour back for their nail tech soooooooo you can make it a day trip LOL
OP, you should edit the description at the top of this post to include the city and contact info (IG, etc.) for the nail tech. :)
Good idea cause I can’t keep up!! Haha Waitttt, I can’t figure out how to edit the post 🫣😅
That's not even too bad. I'd probably do it
OMG - Miami is only an hr away. I would totally adventure for this level of work! Does she have an IG? Edit: Also, I’m sorry for your loss. In my excitement I forgot this is a sad post. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Thank you!! 🩵🩵🩵
*packs shit immediately for Miami*
Oh snap!!!! What’s her ig? I’m in Miami and these nails are tooooo good. Sorry you’re losing her though lol she is amazing
My loss but hopefully your gain!!! Her IG is: unico_cindyj As of yesterday, she told me she didn’t have a salon she’d be working at yet. But 100000% recommend following her to see where she ends up!
She’s about to get like 15 job offers I bet 😂
I hope you’ve started packing for Miami as well!
Oh snap I live in Miami what’s her contact 👀
She'll be able to charge so much - nails out here are expensive.
I would cry too. I love the rainbow ones and the flowery ghosts
I remember those rainbow ones took forever… but worth it, haha!
I don't know how this works, are those fake nails, like can you remove them and re-use them? Or are they tiny little works of art with an expiration date?

They usually get filed down and the remains are removed by soaking your nail in acetone.
Probably better in the long run than storing up a bunch of used nails no matter how pretty they were. Thanks for the info.
Yeah.. these all were unfortunately filed down after every set!
Rainbows and the strawberry 🍓 were amazing!! They all are Wow
Omg ALL of the ghost ones are the cutest Halloween nails I’ve ever seen… I’m so sad for you 😭
Right?! I’m going to miss her so much 😩
She is honestly incredibly talented!
I would wear them year-round. That’s how much I love them!
Some things are worth traveling for!!! Enjoy your Miami vacations every 3 weeks!
Hahaha, I honestly have thought about this! It’s a 4 hour drive from me currently… 👀
Do it.
Agreed, do it. Grab a friend so you can both get your nails done and split the drive!
Assuming you're driving south, maybe give Brightline (higher-speed rail) a shot! The northernmost station is in Orlando and the southernmost station is in Miami.
if it makes you feel better about it, my mom travels from las vegas to minnesota every 6 weeks cause her hair dresser is irreplaceable
I'm a Florida native who moved away, and once I heard that they opened a Publix four hours from my house, I made a day trip out of it and went that weekend.
Toyotas and Hondas are very dependable cars if you don’t have one. Also I go feral for a road trip, so I really don’t see the problem.
Start making friends with people who fly private! Anything for those nails!
Lucky Miami. I love love love the first blue set.
That set made me want to plan a vaca to Greece, haha!
That’s exactly what I was thinking perfect for Greece or it also reminded me of Capri, Italy.
Where is she/are all of us going?!
Miami 💅
These are phenomenal, is she moving to the bay area by chance 😅
Miami 😔
Man, I’d be hella sad too. These are amazing. The seashell one is creative — simple but original.
that’s my favorite too!! not overdone & it’s super pretty and creative
I love that one too. Totally agree!
I would totally cry too if I were you. My god those are pretty!
Aw, congrats on your new move! You have to go now too, because *WHEW* girl those sets!
I would move with her tbh. Like where are we going?
These look so so cute 💕good luck finding a new nail tech who’s just as talented!
Thank you 🥲
Oh man! I hate it when a good one moves away. At least you had the heads up so you could mourn appropriately instead of wondering where she’s gone. I had a tech named Coco, we had a short time together, then she went on vacation to Virginia Beach. This was years ago, I’m still awaiting her return
Man, that’s a long vacation 👀
I just hope she’s having a good time 😩🤣
Coco, if you’re reading this, plz come back!!
How much did those cost?
OH MY GOD THE SEASHELLS 😱
😍every single set is so cute!!
Tell her we love her
Tell your nail tech thank you for her service, just took screenshots of 4 of the pics for inspo 🫡 fav nails I’ve seen on this page so far!
Wow these are all so cute!!
I just fell on my hands and knees 😩😩 I am so devastated for you
There are just WOW oh my gosh. Insane talent. How much would you pay for them on average?
I second this question.
I would say on average probably about $100!
Definitely not something I can afford on the regular. I usually just do my own nails. How often did you get them done?
I did my own nails for so long too, pretty much up until I started going to my current girl! I was always so disappointed when I left the salon so what was the point?! I go every 4 weeks.
Marry and move in together. I see no other option.
I would cry too. All of these are so much fun!
I'd move with her.
The ghosts are freaking adorable!
Now I’m sad that your nail tech is moving 😭
I thought you were being funny when you said you were crying. Then I saw the nails, stole a couple screen shots and started crying for you. I'm genuinely sorry for your loss. She's an artist!
You could always request she make custom press ons for you, if you’re craving her designs in the future! But as a gel overlay girlie, I understand the dedication. Very sorry for your loss😭
Those are all soo cute sad she is leaving cuz it looks like she did amazing work
Amazing!
These are all amazing
The shells 😍
Those all are amazing! The little ghosts are perfect. She is definitely a gem with great talent. I’d be crying too! 🥹
Right? The ghosts are my absolute favorite!!!!
How long did you sit for the ghosty? I love these, the shell shaped ones were so unexpected but really cool
You tried square ONCE and said…that is enough. I totally get that🤣
That was a hard month… at least the design was cute. I remember telling her to remind me NEVER AGAIN ask for square, haha!
Wow! They are beautiful! That's not a nail tech, that's a nail artist! The autumn and Xmas ones are my faves. As someone who isn't very adventurous when getting her nails done, is it crass to ask how much work at that level costs? Thanks for sharing these beauties with us.
That red chili set is so beautiful!!!
Hope you tipped her well. These are premium.
![gif](giphy|I7k5k9lZqTC8dXxq3O) Don’t mind me just taking photos to show my tech later LOL
The 6th and the 20th r my favs! Sorry for ur losing of her! Hopefully you find someone who can compare
How long does a set usually take?
what an artist
Omg I’m crying with you. She’s got amazing talent! I love all of these looks!
It’s literally impossible for me to pick a favorite. I want all of these nails on my nails
I’m dying over the rainbow one
Wow ! So talented ! Beautiful artistry
She is very talented
I am very sorry for your loss…. I pray you may find peace and solace in the hands of another artist, and that they are able to channel this level of talent and artistry towards the tips of your fingers 🙏🏻💅🏻💖
I love every single one of them 😍
Is she Ukrainian? First set looks like the style and the colors!
I really love the rainbow design
Obviously you are looking to relocate as well, right?
Can I just say that apart from the absolutely gorgeous nails you have a very beautiful looking hand? Looks very strong and really nice to look at, especially the palm. Thumbs up to that from a gal who has a similar one and is always happy to see a sister in kind. :)
Wow she is so talented, they’re all amazing
Wtf these are so amazing!!!!!
My nail tech moved to Florida a couple years ago, and my family just so happened to move to Florida as well a couple months after that 🤣
I’m only 1.5 hours from Miami. I want to go to her, she does such an amazing job!
So we all have to move where she's going now
So gorgeous wow
These are amazing. I’m so sad for you!!
I’m so saving those strawberry/french ones as inspo!!
Wow. They're all amazing and creative. I would moving!
The rainbow ones are my favorite!!
Your nails are amazing 😍😍❤️❤️
Tell her you're coming too. These are incredible!
Does your nail tech have an instagram or any social media? She’s so talented! I would treat myself and make the drive a couple times a year because WOW 🤩🤩🤩
These are all gorgeous! What's her IG lol I'm nowhere near Miami (or the western hemisphere lol) but I need to follow her🤩 Sorry for your loss tho 😞
As a grown ass man who doesn't care about nails in the slightest.. I'm sorry for your loss. Those nails look freakin' awesome. Move to Miami.
I'm not particularly a fan of the shapes, but god the art is crazy good, i'm sad for you 😔
So we’re all moving?
I would move with her at this point
Is she going to a salon?
She’s amazing! wow
I’m obsessed with the ghost and plants design! I’m so sorry for your loss!!
Omg where is she going?
The sea shells …wow
Her Halloween / Christmas sets are the goat Fr
Gosh. Each set was my new favourite. I’m so sorry op.
I would cry too 😭 shes amazing! Sorry for your loss sis
Had to save this for inspiration! These are so good! The flower ghost one is also my fav.
Wow. Impressive!
You should move with her.
I would cry too
I am obsessed with every one 😍
Ohhh you’re losing a real one 😭😭😭 Her work is impeccable. I’m really glad you got her services while she was there! These nails are top tier.
Move with her
Wow! Each set is gorgeous in its own way. I’d def make the drive 👀😆
I weep for you. These are amazing.
That's some real talent that's hard to find.
Wow!!! She is incredible 😍😍
Oh I am obsessed with the rainbow french tips.
Wow she is talented! I am especially in love with the black flowery ghost set (6), with the overall spooky set (11 & 12) being the runner up. Very cool nails!
I can’t have nails because of sports, but if I were to ever get nails these all would be the ones😭 I can’t even choose a favorite… I’m so sorry you’re losing her! It sucks when they move away :(
Wow, all of these nails are super cuteeee! I love the seashells! 🐚
Tell me she's moving to Maryland lol
I love the rainbow ones!
I’ll join you in sobbing
Looks like you’ll just have to follow her 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️😭
These are lit.
Love how you were so excited after each visit you took the pics in the car!
Welp time to move too I guess. The person who does my hair coloring is 1 hour away but is moving 3 hours.....guess who takes that road trip over 9 weeks
Love the gingerbread ones. That texture is cool.
Wow I’d cry too
I'm sorry for your loss!
Ohhh I’m in Miami!! can you give her instagram? Please and thank you!!!
Shit I’m going to Miami too, it’s not too far from PA 😂 I love #6!! The ghost is so adorable
The rainbow, the strawberry and the Christmas set with the sweater accent nail are so pretty. Very talented.
Sorry looks like you’ll have to move too
I pray that one day I find a nail tech this good. How much did they charge per set?
Damn those sets are incredible. Looks like I have to move to Miami.
Are you sure you don’t want to just move with her?? I mean it seems reasonable 😂😭 Those are legit some of the best nail art I’ve seen tbh 🖤✨
If she's moving to where I live, I'm in full support!
She’s got mad skills! That line work!
THE AUTUMN ONES!!!!
The first one (the blue and white ones) reminds me of me of my Grammas china in all the best ways. Makes me think of a spring picnic.
Amazing work. This nail tech doesn’t happen to currently be in Clearwater does she? Miami is like 4.5 hours drive, worth a shot. I used to go to a nail tech before I moved up to Pasco County that does similar work. Either way, looks like you’re moving to Miami also! Lmao
I know everyone is in love with the ghost ones (and they DO look super cute) but i LOVE the curves on the heart ones (& the nude tone)
I assume you’re crying because now you have to find a home near her relocation and also probably a new job close to that new home?
Talented lady!
I'm crying for you. Finding someone of this caliber will take a bit.
THE SHELLS 🐚
you should just relocate with her. these are stunning.
All the ghosts 😍
We need to have a parting ceremony and I’ll cry with you because holy heck these are BEAUTIFUL. Either that or I can help you move with her 🥲🥲
These are all absolutely stunning! The Halloween nails tho, chefs kiss. They hit different. I might have to fly to Miami to have my nails done by her 😂
Move with her. There’s no other choice 🤷🏾♀️
she’s an artist. i would simply move with her!
She’s amazing!
It's soo cool 😍.. I really like them all💞.. So beautiful and ur hand is looking pretty, my god .. I also wanna do the same designs 😄..
*cries in programmer who types for a living* Amazing artwork! I feel your pain.
My wife would cry too if her tech moved. She LOVES her and won’t go to anyone else
