OUR MISSION: “Transforming lives, one mani at a time”

We’ve also formulated our own non-toxic and cruelty-free polish line, Notably Nude, a timeless, inclusive collection of go-to nudes! Each shade, created with a variety of complexions in mind.
THE REAL
Did you know the average nail salon has products that contain over 10,000 chemicals, chemicals linked to asthma, cancer, and reproductive harm? In fact, the University of Colorado found that most nail salons have higher levels of harmful, cancer-causing chemicals than auto garages and oil refineries.
Crazy right?
These risks can turn a relaxing Mani/Pedi into a harmful experience.
OUR SOLUTION
Mindful Mani was specifically designed to bring you a fume-free, safe, relaxing, and enjoyable experience, without compromising your health.
Drawing from my own undesirable nail salon encounters, and those of my family and friends, I wanted to create a conscious and caring beauty experience.
Mindful Mani is a certified Safe Salon ®. Meaning our manicurists have undergone extensive training on healthful nail care and safe and sanitary techniques.
WHAT IS THE MARKET SIZE/OPPORTUNITY?
Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for Nail Care was estimated at $9. 9 Billion in the year 2020, is projected to reach a revised size of $11. 6 Billion by 2027.
We believe there is a huge opportunity to disrupt the nail industry, elevating the existing experience for both our customers and our employees. Check out this New York Times expose to learn more!
It’s no secret that there are clear barriers to women, especially women of color (WOC) when it comes to fundraising. As of 2019, WOC account for 50% of all women-owned businesses and generate $422.5 billion in revenue for the economy. Yet, out of $85 Billion in VC funding last year, WOC only received less than 1%.
As a WOC-owned business, we are crowdfunding due to these disparities.
Crowdfunding is a way to call upon our community and allies in order to gain the support and energy needed to continue to fuel and expand the Mindful Mani mission
You're not only investing in the future of Mindful Mani but in the future of the nail industry.
