04 October 2023 | News
The results are in for the first Nailympia San Antonio 2023
San Antonio hosted the third Nailympia on US soil in 2023, and saw top class nail artists battle for medals and points towards the Nailympia Premiere Cup.
Under the shrewd eyes of head judge, Alisha Rimando, contestants from across the USA, Germany, Ireland and Ethiopia (represented for the first time in any Nailympia competition), showcased their agility, mastery and prowess in the field of nails.
Stepping in to host the event at the Premiere San Antonio beauty epxo, nail artist Hemi Park relays, “This Nailympia was a blast! This major beauty event, hosted in San Antonio, Texas, delivered 11 categories over two days with 13 competitors from four countries taking 46 seats.
“This event attracted a diverse group of competitors from well-seasoned veterans to novices embracing their new journey, each showing enormous passion and drive to achieve their competition nail objectives and goals.”
Hemi continues, “As always, I was in awe of the energy they brought to the arena, as every one of them showcased extraordinary mastery. I must remark that the average scores were exceptionally high across all categories, and I felt blessed to witness and host such a spectacular event.”
The judging panel comprised Alisha Rimando (head judge), Beth Livesay, Jesse Bruner, Gari-Dawn Tingler, Kalista Sims and Koko Kashiwagi. Headline sponsor for the event was nail brand CND, which presented the Top Scorer trophy and prizes.”
