Ep 7. Nail Nightmares

Nail'd It is a reality competition show focusing on the art of nail design. In season 1 episode 7, titled "Nail Nightmares," the six remaining contestants are challenged to create their interpretation of a nightmare on a set of five nails. The contestants are given thirty minutes to plan and sketch their designs before starting the manicure.

The judges for this episode are Jan Arnold, the co-founder of CND (Creative Nail Design), and Nail'd It's lead judge, Terrance Terry. As the contestants begin their manicures, the judges walk around to observe their progress and offer feedback.

Some of the contestants struggle with the concept, unsure of how to translate a nightmare into nail art. One contestant, in particular, is frustrated as she feels her design is not coming together as she had hoped. Another contestant struggles with the time constraint and has trouble executing her intricate design.

As the clock ticks down, the tension in the room builds, and the judges become increasingly critical of the designs they see. One contestant impresses the judges with a unique design that accurately captures the feeling of a nightmare, while another contestant struggles to create a cohesive design.

After the thirty minutes are up, the judges examine each contestant's work closely, looking for attention to detail and overall creativity. One contestant's design falls short, and they are ultimately sent home, leaving only five contestants remaining in the competition.

This episode not only showcases the technical skill of the contestants, but also their ability to think creatively and on their feet. The concept of translating a nightmare into nail art is a challenging one, and the contestants must be willing to take risks if they hope to succeed.

Overall, the episode is an exciting and engaging watch, with plenty of drama and tension to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. The judges offer insightful commentary throughout, and the sheer variety of designs presented by the contestants is impressive. Fans of the show and nail art enthusiasts alike will find much to enjoy in this episode.
