We had the good fortune of connecting with Shar Rachal, MBA and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Shar, how did you come up with the idea for your business?
Several years ago, I was looking on how I could save more and what expenses I could cut. Yes a girl should have their nails done but at the end of the day it didn’t make me feel pretty so I cut it! I figured I can polish these nails myself. This also allowed my nails to grow back strong without the damaging effects of acrylic nails.

Later, I was turned onto press on nails by a family member. Boy did that change my life, it was own ever since. I’ve never looked back at acrylics again! Years passed and I started looking for side hustles.

I had an epiphany, press on nails came to mind. I knew I couldn’t be the only girl that loves the advantages of a good press on manicure! So here I am, looking to influence all women that press ons are where it’s at! lol Be your own nail stylist, save time, money and change as often as you like! This is how I came up with BBELLISHED NAILS.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?

We are black owned female luxury press on nail brand. Our press on nail styles are classic but chic and gives the illusion of a perfect manicure. Our goal is to ensure our customers’ nails don’t look like press ons but depicts a salon like finish. We offer a variety of sizes to make certain our nails fit perfectly over any size nail bed. The best thing of all, when our products are packed they are prayed over! Our prayer is that everything this lady touches be prosperous and successful!

Being an entrepreneur is definitely challenging and requires dedication to achieve optimal results. Entrepreneurship is extremely different from working in a corporation. I’ve learned that a whole lot of faith, consistency,  trial and error are necessary to run a business. I constantly overcome challenges daily and the challenges are what builds the brand and the person.

BBELLISHED NAILS offers a curated collection of trendy, classy and high-quality press on nails. If you are looking to cut your nail shop expenses or just take a break from nail extensions but still looking to have a flawless manicured look we got you!

BBELLISHED NAILS offers luxury for less. We recently launched our new Soft Girl Gel Nail polish and manicure kits. We are excited to launch more products in the future. We aspire to offer nails, nail tools and nail supplies to nail techs and all the DIY nail girlies soon. Stay tuned!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
We definitely hitting up Pappadeaux’s on the first night in! That’s my favorite restaurant! We would also head to the museum district and check out some of the exhibits there. We would head to third ward and definitely get some Frenchys!

We going to Juarez Mexican to get some good Mexican food and happy hour margaritas! We headed to Galveston on one of those days too! Even though the water is ehhh but at night it’s a vibe!
Then to be honest we would just freestyle it, Houston has so many cool spot’s especially depending on the time of year.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?

I would like to dedicate my shoutout to God, my creative director! Seriously lol, I place God at the forefront of all of my decisions pertaining to my personal life and business decisions. I let God lead me into making wise decisions and trusting he will guide my path.

I also would like to shoutout my husband, my parents, my family, friends and new connections I have made on this journey. Each one of you have played a significant role in my personal or professional life thus far.
