My name is Helina.
I have been a nail technician since 2009 — it has never been just a job for me, but an environment where over the years I have learned to understand what truly separates a good product from a “popular” product. And all of this through testing, learning, sometimes making mistakes, and gradually learning to trust my own intuition more and more.
Over the past 17 years, I have created two beauty studios, one of which has now been left behind.
Obviously for a reason — because I needed to reach the point where I could create something even bigger and more reflective of who I truly am.
Today, I am incredibly grateful for my HT Studio.
It is a place I created with heart and where I genuinely enjoy what I do.
But that is not the only thing I have created.
NAIL EDIT was created by a technician, for technicians.
NAIL EDIT was actually born from the wishes of many technicians.
In 2025, I was actively working with various Ukrainian brands, and it was through that experience that the suggestions started coming in — “create a store.”
At first, it felt intimidating and like a completely unfamiliar world.
I had no previous experience with running a store, importing products, or even knowing where I should begin. It was scary.
But step by step, everything started falling into place.
The ideas came.
The knowledge came.
And finally — the courage and a clear vision came.
Throughout this entire journey, I have listened, observed, and remembered your experiences, expectations, and wishes. I visited countless online stores, and based on those experiences, I created the kind of store I felt was missing from our market.
A store that would support technicians when they feel unsure about their choices.
A place that provides enough information and user experiences about products.
A place that is logical, clear, and easy to use.
A place worth coming back to.
And perhaps most importantly — a place where we can share more.
Because one honest experience or a small recommendation can mean so much to someone else.
While visiting different online stores, I often thought, “Why don’t we have a store like this or that?” — I could have never imagined that I myself would be the one to make it happen.
But today, it is here.
For all of us.
