  • It’s insightful and covers a range of beauty related things

    Charisse is very knowledgeable, you can tell she is not here to sell. She discusses products, editorial stuff and brings different perspectives from talented people that work in fashion or the beauty industry.

    I just love her insights even if she talks about products that I haven’t heard of or tried yet, plus her voice is really lovely.

Ep 314: ‘We are all Chanel women now.’ Session Manicurist Ama Quashie on those Chanel cruise ‘mermaid nails’, why the fashion industry must recognise nail techs and why professionalism is key
Q: Why is credit and recognition important for nail artists in fashion, and what changes would you like to see?
Credit needs to be visible across campaigns and editorials to reflect the artistry involved, not just the broader team. The industry should consistently acknowledge nail designers in credits and features, matching the visibility given to makeup and hair teams.

Q: How did the Chanel nail look for the runway come together, and what made it possible to push the idea to length and color variety?
It began with close collaboration with Matthieu Blazy, color palette discussions, and a readiness to test beyond traditional norms. The team developed multiple designs, colorways, and textures, then pared them down through iterative checks until a cohesive, high-impact set was ready for the models.
