🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Our Aspire T-shirts have been sitting around asking…

“Is it me? Did I do something wrong?” 🥺👕

Friends… it’s not the shirts. They’re adorable.

But we’ve got just ONE WEEK left! Our pop-up shop closes August 2, and we’d love to see a few more of these shirts find a home.

💜 Every purchase helps fund Aspire scholarships, giving future students the opportunity to chase their dreams. So yes… buying a cute shirt technically makes you a hero. We don’t make the rules. 🤷‍♀️✨

Need another excuse?
🍂 Fall is almost here.
🖤 Long sleeves and jackets are perfect for cooler weather.
💇 Students can wear these under their black uniforms every day, and colored Aspire shirts on Fridays!

💅 Did You Know?

Your fingernails grow about three times faster than your toenails. That’s one reason many clients schedule manicure appointments more often than pedicures.

Our bodies really are fascinating! 💖

💭 Did You Know? 💭

Your skin is your body’s largest organ! Just like you brush your teeth and wash your hair, taking care of your skin helps protect it and keep it healthy. Healthy skin doesn’t mean perfect skin. It means caring for the skin you’re in.

Because healthy skin is always in style! 🌿💜

Help us welcome our last but not least new nail tech.
Cami D.

Hi everyone! My name is Cami, and I am so excited to be enrolled in the Nail Technician program here at Aspire!
For the past 13 years, I’ve been an elementary and special education teacher. While I truly enjoyed my career in education, nails has always held a special place in my heart. I’ve always loved having my nails done, and after graduation I’m excited to bring high-quality nail services to my hometown and help others feel confident and pampered.
When I’m not at school, you can usually find me waitressing on the weekends, spending time with friends and family, helping coach softball, or curled up with a good book. I also love being outdoors, traveling, shopping (especially thrifting!), cooking and baking, trying out new nail designs, and going to concerts.
I’m looking forward to learning, growing, and sharing my journey with all of you over the next 14 weeks. I can’t wait to see where this new adventure takes me and for you to be in my chair!

Need some new Aspire swag? We’ve got you covered… literally. 😎💜

Our Aspire Pop-Up Shop is still open, and every purchase helps make a difference!
