"Make the Haters your Motivators"

I am amaaaazed at the controversy of me working with and on Ayanna's nails. It's range has reached across not only my salon and some of my clients but in my social networking hang-outs. The more accomplished and recognized I become out come the haters. ANONYMOUS HATERS LOLOLOL they crack me up poor people. Always been a very opinionated, but I always try to put myself in that persons shoes before I open my mouth. I got a ton of shit for being a democrat during the election and now I'm gettin a ton of crap over this. Wako that people have so much energy to put toward something that doesn't affect their paycheck or their family. Kandi on RHOA said it best, "make the haters your motivators"! WORD! Anyway here are another video. Will post the last 2 tomorrow! Hope yall enjoy.

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
