Serena Williams' Shocking New Career: Nail Tech
Posted on Feb 16, 2010 @ 08:05PM
Serena Williams has always given one hundred percent to her endeavors and her upcoming nail collection is not an exception.
The tennis champ has recently enrolled in a 240-hour program to be certified as a nail tech in Florida.
“No one likes getting their nails done more than I do. As a matter of fact I go every four days to get a manicure and every seven days for a pedicure. So, I had a brilliant idea to get certified to be a nail tech,” she wrote on her Global Grind blog.

"Besides the fact that I am coming out with a nail collection from a company called HairTech, I thought 'Serena, this is a no-brainer'.”
Shortly after returning home from the Australian Open, Williams began researching schools that would let her finish the course at her own pace. As always, the athlete made sure she was prepared to face the challenges ahead.

"The night before my class I made sure I had all my tools, books and gear organised. I went to the Hello Kitty store and bought plenty of containers as well as a backpack to keep my belongings. If I'm not the best, I sure do want to look like it."

Licensed nail tech for 17 yrs here. Having a license doesn't make you an expert until you actually get out there & make it you're full time job, working with the public. I give her props tho for wanting to learn.

You go girl----. I have a cosmetology license just for fun. It is nice to be aware. I have a mechanic license a real estate license and a broadcasting license just for fun. It is fun to be trained in one's interests.
