Wow the first taping went great with Ayanna! I was amazed to see how neat and clean her nails were. Also they were polished to perfection! Impressive that she did this herself!
I had a few visitors like my bestie DivoJ and my daughter Alexa stop by to meet Ayanna. My wonderful asst Ms Veronica helped me with the camcorder and her nails too.

I was so impressed with how clean her nails were. Not a spec of dirt or even old polish to be seen under her nails. In fact her polish job was so impressive I would have sworn someone else did it!

It took a quart of acetone and more cotton than I use in a day to remove her polish. Once this was done we buffed her nails prepping for the longest MINXn I have ever done (or anyone for that matter!) The video will up as soon as I get a card reader. sorry yall I got a new camcorder and can't fig it out just yet!

Yeah yeah you think it is gross. Every time I wanna say I could careless what you think...I remember why I want to do this documentary. By the time I finished her nails...4 hrs later and the time flew too....we had Minx'd 27 inches of nails and polished the rest with OPI Gold.

Ayanna is a super sweet and easy goin lady. I like her..alot! Stay tuned for more to come.
MINXn Peace yall!

That's what I was called by one of my good clients when I told her I was gonna make a documentary on a woman who has 16 inch nails. Meet Ayanna. Yes that's her pic up there. Did you say GROSS or OMFG? I can lay money down that your first thought was how does she clean herself? Right? Do you really want to know?

Tomorrow I meet Ayanna for the first time. I am gonna do an evaluation, remove some polish and Minx one of her nails for a YouTube video. This will be the first of many videos that will be part of a 7 month documentary on Ayanna's lifestyle including her nail appointments. By the time April gets here we go to Vegas for a convention for "Long Nail Beauties".

I hope my inexperience with a camcorder doesn't go "Blair witch" on ya but I'll give it my best. I def want to tell yall that Ayanna is a sweet heart and I AM FASCINATED with this entire project! I know you have questions so send them to MinxHouston@gmail.com and see if they are answered in my next YouTube video! Peace yall
