Bio
Quality Grooming, Fashion Forward, Style Conscious are all ways to describe this young and artistic "Nail Care Guru". Terrance Terry descends from the Urban-Yet self proclaimed "Beauty Capitol" and "Motor City" of Detroit Michigan. I recall when "I finished High School that I wanted to do something in the Beauty, Fashion, and Home Design Business ... but not actually to realize that I would later be the GO-TO guy when it came to Nails & Nail care". After attending Sally Esser Academy of Beauty, the young Artist began to train under some of the most talented officials in the Nail Industry. He began to create very artistic Nail Art Collections to include the Designer Nail Series which included Custom Polished Nails to replicate the fashion patterns of Burberry Plaid Print, Gucci Print, The popular Louis Vuitton Print and Chanel.
Still eager to spread his artistic hand to other outlets, Terrance Terry attended The International Academy of Design & Technology in Troy Michigan. There he studied Residential & Commercial Interiors, and core studies of Textiles and Furniture Construction. Upon completion of Course, he embarks on a journey which lead him to his current relocation and home of "Southern Charm" Atlanta Georgia.
After a few short years Terrance Terry began to market his brand of Signature Manicure Services and Custom Nail Art Designs. Determined to fully Brand his vision of Quality Nail Care, the Nail Artist heads to LA California. Crystal Wright's Celebrity Stylist Workshop led to be very informative for the upcoming Celeb & Fashion Manicurist. After returning to Atlanta and fully acclimated and equipped with the vital tools to expand his market Terrance Terry opened the Wet Paint Nails & Beauty Studio.

FAQ's
1. What are the best ways to keep my cuticles neat and beautiful?
The main function of cuticles is to protect the nails, so keeping them healthy and well-groomed not only improves the cuticle appearance but also promotes beautiful nails.
Remove excess cuticles gently with Cuticle Remover. Use Cuticle Oil and Cuticle Cream to moisturize, condition and nourish cuticles and help keep them looking smooth and radiant.
2. How can I make my nail polish last longer?
There are four essential elements of a beautiful, long-lasting manicure and pedicure.
1) Make sure nails are clean and dry. Before applying polish, always wipe natural nails with nail polish remover to eliminate any debris or oils that can prevent polish from adhering.
2) Always use a base coat or nail treatment. Glide it onto your bare nails thinly before applying nail polish.
3) Apply two thin coats of your choice of Nail Lacquer. Without touching the cuticle, apply the first stroke down the center of the nail and follow with one stroke on each side.
4) Use a top coat. Extend the life of your manicure and pedicures even further by re-applying a top coat after a few days.
3. I would like to wear dark shades but worry that they may stain my nails. How can I protect my nails?
Always use a base coat or nail treatment before applying nail polish. In addition to helping your polish adhere securely, it creates a barrier between the nail surface and the pigments of dark nail lacquers.
If you already have discoloration caused by dark polish, gently lighten it by filling a small bowl three quarters full with water, adding a small amount of hydrogen peroxide and soaking your nails for ten minutes. To eliminate more difficult stains, take a nailbrush and a little whitening toothpaste and rub briskly across your nails for a few minutes before rinsing with water. Pat dry and moisturize and soothe.
4. NATURAL LOOK _ HOME
You’ve just gotten a manicure and your hands and nails look great. Before you head back to the salon for your next appointment, read through my suggestions to make sure you’re doing everything you can at home to keep your hands and nails looking just as fresh and polished as the day you got your manicure.
listen to your nail tech. Carefully follow your nail tech’s recommendations for at-home care. If you have weak, brittle nails and they recommend you use a nail strengthener at home, follow thier instructions. If your nails have ridges and they recommends you use ridge filler, invest in one.
treat your nails with care. Wear gloves when gardening or exposing hands to water for extended periods of time. Do not use your nails as tools. Use a soda can opener for pop-tops, for example.
use topcoat to help nail polish last. Chipping nail polish seems to be chronic problems for nail clients. Solve the dilemma by applying a layer of topcoat 24 hours after your service and to the free edge every couple of days. That should double the duration of your manicure and keep your nails looking shiny and new.
mend a chipped nail. So you’ve applied topcoat, but you still managed to chip a nail. What to do? Using your fingertip, dab a small amount of polish remover on the affected area and lightly smooth it over. Re-coat with polish and topcoat.
keep your hands well moisturized. It’s important to keep your nails looking great, but your hands are important, too. Use a cream or lotion daily to keep them hydrated and smooth. If you’re often outdoors, use a lotion with an SPF of at least 15.
don’t forget about cuticles. Use cuticle oil or treatment religiously. It keeps cuticles supple and moisturized and helps keep pesky hangnails and dry skin at bay. Gently push back cuticles with a washcloth or the ball of your finger, not with the free edge of your nail.
file with care. What do you do if you snag or break a nail? Carefully file away. Always use a fine-frit file, which can range from 240-400 grit, and gently file in one direction. Never file nails in a back-and-forth motion, as this can cause your nails to fray and split. Your nail tech may even provide you with a home repair kit.
leave it to your nail tech. A slightly chipped or snagged nail can easily be mended by filing the nail. But if you have a bigger problem such as a split nail, don’t attempt to fix it yourself. Call your nail tech and schedule an appointment to get it fixed.
if you’re sick, stay away. If you have a contagious skin or nail disease, wait until it clears before visiting the salon again. If symptoms persist, make an appointment with your dermatologist or a podiatrist. Ask your manicurist as Aqua has several doctors that we work and train with that we can refer you to.
know what you have. Allergic reactions to nail products are uncommon, but it’s important to be able to detect if you have one. Allergic reactions are characterized by redness, itching, swelling around the nails, or irritation around the eyes and mouth. Call your nail tech if you develop any of these symptoms.
5. NAIL ENHANCEMENTS 101
Your nail technician has given you a great set of nail enhancements and you’re set to come in for an appointment in a couple of weeks. Is that all there is to it? Not quite. The following are key pointers to help you care for your nails at home.
let your nail tech do their job. If you break a nail or if a nail begins to lift, schedule a repair appointment. Do not attempt to fix the nail yourself. Improperly gluing down a loose nail can cause moisture to become trapped between the nail and the enhancement and possibly cause an infection. Do not bandage a broken nail as bandages may also trap moisture. Do not take down the length of your enhancements as this will throw off the balance of the nail and may make the nail look bulky.
treat your nails like jewels. Protect your investment by wearing gloves when gardening or exposing hands to water for extended periods of time. Do not put upward pressure on your nail tips, use a soda can opener to pop tops, and dial the phone with the eraser end of a pencil.
add some extras. Your nail technician may suggest that you apply topcoat every other day (or more often depending on your exposure to the sun) to prevent chipping or yellowing. Cuticle oil is also a daily necessity as it keeps cuticles supple and the acrylic/gel product moisturized and flexible.
listen to your nail technician. Can’t decide what length and type of enhancement you’d like? Your nail technician will be more than happy to make a suggestion. For example, if you’re hard on your nails because you work on a computer or do heavy work, shorter nails may be your best option.
call in sick. If you have a contagious skin or nail condition, wait until it clears before visiting the salon again. If symptoms persist, make an appointment with a dermatologist.
be aware of what you have. Very few clients will develop allergic reactions to an ingredient in some nail products. Allergic reactions are characterized by redness, itching, and swelling of the skin around the nails, or irritation around the eyes and mouth. If you develop any of these symptoms, call your nail technician. They will help you determine which ingredient you’re having a reaction to and will take steps to avoid them. If necessary, they can refer you to a dermatologist. Do not ignore a condition that develops around the nail.
don’t take them off. If you decide you no longer want to wear nail enhancements, do not take them off yourself. Picking and pulling the nails off will damage your natural nail, rip layers from your nail plate, and make re-growth a long, painful process. Your nail technician can safely remove nail enhancements.
