Shea Osei on her work for Wicked and making it as a movie/session nail artist

In this episode, we speak to Shea Osei - the British-Jamaican, Essex-based nail tech who went from a Stratford salon owner to the silver screen, creating some of the most talked about nails in history for Cynthia Erivo’s character Elphaba in the hit movie Wicked. We chat about what it was like working as a nail tech on a blockbuster movie - all while heavily pregnant, the importance of Black voices and visibility in the industry and tips to follow in her footsteps. We hope you enjoy the episode.
