ABOUT NAILPRO

Let’s go back to the very roots of the championships, that is, until 1971, in which the world’s largest competitive empire was created. It all started in California – the most recognizable region in the world, in a place that is the center of the American corporation Creative Age Publication, founded by Deborah Carver.

Creative Age is a synergy of cosmetics professionals publishing NAILPRO, Beauty Lanchpad, The Colorist, Beauty Store Business, DAYSPA, Medesthetics, MAN, and Eye Lash magazines. Creative Age manages over 2.5 million active and dedicated professionals in their fields. Magazines support all segments of the professional cosmetics market, from nails styling rooms to cosmetics, hairdressers, day spas, medical spas, spa hotels, health centers, classic and permanent cosmetics studios, eyelashes, schools, and points of sale for professionals, distributors for manufacturers. In 1990, Deborah identified Creative Age as the leading source of knowledge for the professional cosmetics industry.

Over the years, Creative Age has won many awards, including 22 Maggies and ABBY, 3 Ozzies, 10 Certificate of Excellence and the Intercoiffure Press award. Deborah is also the winner of the prestigious 2018 City of Hope’s Laureate title.

From the very beginning, NAILPRO had the most powerful force, focusing on professionalism and uniqueness while maintaining the highest standards. The project has gained worldwide recognition in more than 100 countries, which was appreciated by the icon of the nail industry – Tom Holcomb.

Tom Holcomb was a ten-time world champion, a six-time Japanese champion, and a two-time world champion in Munich and Dusseldorf. During his career, he has been associated with various manufacturers, including the Premium Nail Product (first name is Tom Holcomb Nail Product), Galaxy Nail Products, EZ Flow and Entity Beauty.

Tom Holcomb was an innovator, creator, and passionate about the industry. Although he died prematurely in 2011, when he was only 44 years old, he created a reference point for the perfect artificial nail. Until now, this style is considered the standard of excellence for nail stylist.

According to Jewell Cunningham, NAILPRO Global Director, “when NAILPRO judges evaluate nail modeling, they imply the rules and standards set by Tom.” “Tom knew that he was good, even wonderful, but he always felt that it could be better. We at NAILPRO are grateful to his family, who gave us exceptional consent to honor his legacy. ”

NAILPRO GLOBAL, NAIL COMPETITIONS is an American dream, which since 2014 has been among the number for stylists from Europe. Victoria Klopotova (Ukraine), an international champion in nail modeling, a respected author of industry publications, a student and friend of Tom Holcomb, and now a Creative Age partner, is developing Nailpro in Europe.
