In the last few years, technology has played a vital role in revolutionizing industries across the globe. The arrival of advanced technology has invited new players to new innovative ideas in the market. Similarly, the Beauty and Fashion Industry have observed tremendous growth in recent years. There has been a significant amount of technological advancement in various approaches of companies. This has benefited both the companies and the clients.

Even then, the clients can only be offered a limited number of designs and pattern
Distinctive Identity
Incepted in 2012, Fingernails2Go has gained popularity within the industry due to its unique products. The digital nail art printers offered by the company were the industry’s first to be approved by HP, this proved to be subsequently advantageous. Fingernails2Go began to attract customers with its trustworthy manufacturing partners rapidly overpowering its competitors in the industry.
With the recent launch of the countertop digital nail art printer, Fingernails2Go increased the portability and in turn the demand for their product. The countertop model attracts various clients, from salon business owners to models and influencers. The company has now expanded its business to the US in partnership with a salon services distributor.
