BIO:
Gabriella Bove, Llubiksa Mitrovich, and I, Jennifer Batchelder, met in nail school where we discovered a shared passion for creating beautifully crafted nail enhancements. We have come together to launch Tips, Toes and Tea, and we couldn't be more excited! Please join us for a complimentary basic or structured manicure; you'll walk away with an understanding of the products and services used on your nails, tips for keeping your nails healthy, and a fun set of nails that will last 4+ weeks. We think you will be so pleased with the experience that you'll book with us time and time again. We have over a 90% return rate. Jennifer is fully booked at the moment, but Gabby has added 2 days to her schedule and Llubiksa is starting her journey - so she has excellent availability. Please visit www.tipstoesandtea.com to book with your tech of choice. I've included our bio's below.
Jennifer Batchelder
Several years ago, I fell in love with doing nails. However, as a science teacher, I am aware of the dangers associated with the chemicals found in gel polishes. Therefore, I am committed to using higher-quality brands, especially for the layer of product that is applied directly to the nail plate. This commitment led me to Japanese & Korean gels; their emphasis on high-quality ingredients resonated with me. I am now certified in the correct use of Japan's Kokoist product line. According to Kokoist, ...we are 9-free. While the definition of 9-free can vary, for us this means that our products do not contain these ingredients: toluene, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, camphor, ethyl tosylamide, parabens, triphenyl phosphate (TPHP), and xylene. We maintain Japanese standards to dissuade from using toxic chemicals in our products. Furthermore, I am certified in the application of structured manicures using Nail Thoughts, another Japanese brand. In addition to these product certifications, I am also certified in the Russian manicure and pedicure. Furthermore, I am currently pursuing my Certified Master Pedicurist (CMP) certification with The North American School of Podology, where I am expanding my knowledge of common nail health issues, as well as the proper methods for toenail reconstruction.
When I'm not in the shop, I'm pursuing my Master's in STEM Ed at NCSU, teaching science, spending time with my husband and three grown sons, and playing with my puppy.

Hi! I’m Llubiksa, but everyone calls me Llube the face and hands behind Nails by Llube. I’m 27, a proud mom and wife, and a big believer that confidence starts with the little details. I love soft colors, pretty nails, good vibes, and cozy nights filled with music, books, or a new series to fall in love with.
