KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘When I teach my students I ask “what makes us great nail tech?” We all know that any nail that comes in to us, whatever it looks like, we can put something over the top of it and make it look fabulous. But, why not start helping the actual nail that’s there. That’s what sets us apart from the other nail techs on the street that are just putting something pretty over the top.’
Jim's Dad had him formulate his first product: a cuticle oil – SolarOil was his very first product. We knew when we started Famous Names and working on IBX, we wanted to come out with a new, more innovative, all-natural, certified organic oil. Jim always has a codename when working on a new product, when she was young our oldest daughter called SolarOil Daddy’s Oil, so the codename for this was Project Daddy which 18 months later we changed the spelling to DadiOil.’
‘We pride ourselves that relief is nothing like a medical pedicure, we decided to go in a whole different direction for a lot of different reasons, which is why we call it a cosmetic.’
‘Even knowing how to file and cut a toenail could be a life and death matter.’
