We had the good fortune of connecting with Taimarys Elias and we’ve shared our conversation below.

What should our readers know about your business?
What sets my business apart from others is that I focus on the health of the nails. When I get new clients, 99% of them have come with weak and damaged nails from other nail techs in Miami. I get super excited when I sit back and think of how far I have gotten in such a short time. When I started my career as a nail tech, I was working under somebody else, and I started to build my clientele on the side by offering mobile services. Now, I have my own spot in Miami and get fully booked months in advance. It took a lot of hard work and determination to get where I am today, but it was worth it. I learned that when you really want something and you are willing to put in the hard work, you can do it.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If I had friends visiting Miami, I would show them the city’s authentic side by taking them to some of the best local bars and restaurants where they can indulge in delicious food and drinks. During the weekend, we would head to Wynwood to enjoy the music scene and have amazing drinks. To top off the trip, we would have a relaxing lunch at the beach while soaking up the sun and enjoying the water.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to give a special mention to my husband. During the time when I was teaching myself how to do nails, he would be by my side in the living room, giving his feedback as I practiced on my training hand. He was always by my side from the start and consistently motivated me to keep going and achieve my goals, even in moments of doubt. I truly believe that his encouragement played a significant role in my decision to start my nail business.
