🚫 Nothing that identifies you or your salon
Why? Because we want our expert judging panel to focus solely on your incredible work! We believe everyone deserves a fair shot at the top prize, and this is how we make it happen. 🏆✨
So, let your talent shine through and keep those portfolios anonymous! We can't wait to see what you've got.

Beki’s journey is one of pure grit and passion. Starting her career in 2010 while on maternity leave, she turned a dining room setup into a professional powerhouse. With nearly 15 years in the industry, Beki has transitioned from a self-proclaimed "wild child" to a highly respected salon owner and educator.
Driven by a love for all things "arty," Beki didn't just settle for the basics. She trained with the industry's best to master hard gel, gel polish, and intricate nail art, eventually "biting the bullet" to become a qualified educator.
🎨 Expertise & Inspiration
Beki brings a unique perspective to our panel, believing that there is room for everyone to succeed in this industry. Her philosophy is simple: you are capable of anything you put your mind to.
Notable Achievements:

🏫 Education Specialist: Dedicated to fast-tracking student success by sharing a decade's worth of refined techniques.

🏠 Salon Owner: Successfully launched and grew her own professional salon.
