How it All Started           

The concept for Nail Fitness dates back to the early eighties when my brother, Derek Berg was a newly licensed manicurist doing nails in Southern California. (Yes, very few male manicurists at that time!) He saw firsthand the damage being done by artificial nail applications and felt like his clients needed another option.

Derek decided to switch gears and go into sales within the nail industry, creating a mobile nail supply business that serviced nail salons. It was during that time that he met his wife, Wendy (also a manicurist and stylist at the time), and together they went on to open salons and a large beauty supply location.

Creating Nail Fitness

Over the years, Derek continued to notice the growing trend of people opting for healthier, natural-looking nails. While he worked with all the major brands and sold their nail strengtheners, he still believed he could create a superior product.

In 1999, working with a leading chemist in the field, Derek and Wendy created Nail Fitness—a natural nail product unlike anything else available.

Quality Over Everything

The formula was undoubtedly superior, and Derek knew he could maintain that unbeatable quality by bottling in small batches, controlling distribution, and never allowing his product to collect dust on warehouse shelves.

After nearly 20 years of distributing directly to manicurists, I convinced Derek that he needed to make Nail Fitness readily available to those who couldn't access it at their local salon. I stepped in and created our retail division, selling online to our customers.

We're still bottling in small batches, maintaining our highest standards as we strive to keep up with the growing demand for our product.

 Family Owned and Operated, Then and Now

This isn't the first time that I've worked with my brother. Back in the late 1980s I also obtained my manicuring license and helped with his endeavors. Life took me in other directions, but I have always stayed involved with the family businesses throughout the years. I'm excited about sharing Nail Fitness with every consumer who wants to enjoy their own, natural nails. Nail Fitness isn't just a product; it's a community of women sharing with friends and family what makes them feel beautiful and confident.
