There are so many talented artists in the world who truly deserve the notoriety they receive. Whether it’s art on canvas, a physical object, or nails, there is beauty to be found in the precision and dedication required to create. One man in Wyoming, Michigan, discovered firsthand just how far people are willing to drive and how much they’re willing to pay for an artist to work on their nails. Honestly, the video is so wholesome and really gives an inside look at what it is that an artist really wants to create: joy.
Michigan-based nail artist The Nail Bender went to TikTok to convey his deepest gratitude for his clients. He has had a full schedule for some time now and decided to reflect on some of his clients and the reason why they have chosen him to work on their nails. He goes over his understanding of competitive pricing and how his prices are a bit higher than those within his neighborhood. However, people were quick to let him know that his work is incomparable.
Various commenters stormed into the replies with words of encouragement. One person specifically said, “Donโt downplay your talent, youโre an artist!” As the video progresses, you can really see what they mean as various designs and sculptures are being shown off. If I were someone who enjoyed getting my nails done, then I’d definitely want him to be the one behind the drill. The clips show exactly the work that goes into something so intricate, detailed, and delicate.
All seven of the clients that he recorded for the day received quality nails that I genuinely don’t think can be replicated anywhere else. The Michigan nail artist should really learn to give himself more credit moving forward, and I’d like to think that this video will bring him even more virality than before.
