Serena Williams, the number 1 tennis player in the world, has a super backhand. But have you ever noticed her super nails?!
We had no idea, that Serena was so into nails. In fact, the tennis great is almost a certified nail technician in the state of Florida. No kidding.
In her Global Grind blog, Serena wrote all about her passion for nails:
...."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."
"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'. Immediately after I came home from the Australian Open I researched some schools and enrolled in a course that allowed me to complete 240 hours... The night before my class I made sure I had all my tools, books and gear organized."
Don't think it's so easy becoming a nail tech, especially when you play tennis for a living and don't have a lot of time to spare. Serena has had to paint plenty of nails. "You need to do 240 hours---25 manicures, 40 acrylics, 20 pedicures," she explains in the August issue of Vogue magazine.
Here are Serena Williams' top ranked nail polish shades:
1. O.P.I. Vodka & Caviar. An elegant, rich crimson shade.
2. Essie Russian Roulette. A classic bright red with orange undertones.
The only nail shade Serena won't wear is blue, not flattering on her skin, she says.
Congrats to the world's most famous nail tech!
