21 Years of Nail Mastery, International Training & Nailympia Wins

I’m Chloe Elizabeth Reed, founder of Glam Nailz by Chloe and Glam Goodiez. With over 21 years of experience in the nail industry, my work spans salon services, international training, competition wins, and business education for nail professionals worldwide.

Career Beginnings

I began my career in 2004, a time before gel polish even existed. My early years were rooted in mastering fundamentals—sculpted acrylics, hand-painted designs, and durable enhancements. Those foundations shaped the meticulous approach I’m known for today.

Global Training & Expertise

My pursuit of excellence has taken me across the globe:

  • Japan: I studied advanced gel and airbrush nail techniques, learning precision and discipline from a culture that leads the world in nail artistry.
  • Italy: I trained in European sculpted gel and high-fashion nail design, exploring the intersection of art, beauty, and innovation.

These international experiences gave me a unique perspective and the ability to merge global influences into my own signature style.

Recognized Competitor

I continually challenge myself through competition, and my artistry has been recognized on an international stage:

  • Nailympia 2024 – 2nd Place, Novice Poster Art Contest
  • Nailympia 2025 – 3rd Place, Apprentice Poster Art Contest

These wins reflect not only my creative range but also my dedication to advancing my skills year after year.

Areas of Mastery

I specialize in:

Hand-Painted & Crystal Art – detailed, couture-level designs for clients who demand distinction.

Sculpted Acrylics & Hard Gels – advanced enhancement systems built for longevity and design.

Poly Gel & Gel Systems – modern solutions for flexibility and natural wear.

Pedicures & Toe Enhancements – from restorative techniques to luxury spa services.

Airbrush Nail Art – my signature, blending speed, precision, and creativity.

Educator & Business Mentor

Beyond my work in the salon, I’m dedicated to elevating the industry. Through online courses, ebooks, and in-person training, I’ve helped hundreds of nail professionals:

  • Build profitable businesses
  • Master advanced nail artistry
  • Streamline their service process for efficiency and income growth
  • Create a powerful online presence that attracts loyal clientele

My programs don’t just teach nail techniques—they teach nail techs how to thrive as entrepreneurs.

Whether it’s through affiliate product features, nail art tutorials, or step-by-step training, my mission is to remain at the forefront of nail innovation and business education.

Nails are more than beauty—they’re business, art, and opportunity. And my work is devoted to helping nail professionals unlock all three.
