This week’s Full Body Frequency is all about getting your hands and feet summer pretty and summer fierce.

Join me as I take Full Body Frequency on the road to Fringe-A-Salon in Chicago’s hip, Wicker Park neighborhood.

At Fringe, nail artist, nail technician AND plus-size model, Gigi Lira walks me through the world of nail art. It has moved from urban street and hip hop culture to the runways of New York, Europe, Africa, and Asia to your salon.

Gigi and I also talk best home and salon mani-pedi practices while she works her magic on my feet and hands.
