Winter spa manicure
OPI resident educator and A-Team expert Bryony McMillan has been with OPI for over 2 years and is well known as an expert in the field of hand care and nail treatment. Her portfolio is ever expanding, having recently worked with some top stars at the MOBO awards. She works day to day as an educator at OPI’s HO, heading up the education team and delivering training classes across all OPI treatment and colour ranges, from foundation to advanced masterclasses.
There is no one better to advise on how you should be presenting and positioning your manicure service this winter, as well as recommending additional homecare lines to support your retail income. And there is no better system to deliver this service than OPI’s Avoplex Spa Manicure system.
“There’s no harder working part of your body than your hands,” explains Bryony “they’re put through constant stresses on a daily basis and combined with the upcoming change in season there is no better time to be encouraging your clients to enjoy a full OPI spa manicure service.
“It’s really no different than any other skin care regime and your spa manicure service should be positioned exactly as this to replenish, condition and soothe hard-working hands.”
