Blended Nail Academy

Founded by Valarie Joyce—a licensed nail professional with over 5 years of experience and a former executive in social work—Blended Juniors Nail Academy is more than an after-school program. It’s a creative space where youth grow in confidence, character, and career-ready skills.

Each session follows a structured, enriching format:

🔹 Start Strong – Daily discussions & positive affirmations
🔹 Build Together – Group empowerment and team-building exercises
🔹 Hands-On Learning – Live demos on practice hands or real models
🔹 Nail Time – Creative practice and skill development
🔹 Reflect & Grow – Recap to reinforce learning and set goals

Our students—called Blended Juniors—learn more than nail design. They gain communication, collaboration, and critical thinking skills that cross over into every field.

At Blended Juniors, we’re shaping the next generation of confident creators and future entrepreneurs—one manicure at a time.
