Inspired by his mom, Marc has been very fond of wearing long nails ever since he was a kid. Apart from that, prominent figures such as Lil Kim, Flo-Jo, Missy, and Sha’Carri also became the influencers of his endearment with the craft. Likewise, Marc acknowledged where the cultural artistry came from. Originated in the 50s, this intensive chore mosaic-design manicure was quickly adopted by black women, encompassing both femininity and style within their culture, and later popularized by the figures mentioned above. Marc promptly commemorated the historic acrylic overlays, saying, “So here, not only do I give thanks to my nail techs, artists, and fellow long nail lovers, I also give credit and pay homage to the fabulous black women who fearlessly, proudly, and creatively paved the way. Period.”

Marc is not a fan of stiletto-shaped nails; instead, he finds greater admiration for his stunning 3XL square nail extension patterned through a French-style manicure. Yuleny Garcia, Marc’s nail tech and owner of Muneca Beauty Salon, extensively does the process of a single manicure, which takes about 7 to 8 hours to finish, including breaks and chit-chats with the fashion designer. Evidently, Marc chooses his preferred nail art, and one of his proud designs was the acrylics drawn from a chic figure in the 70’s tortoise shells, inspired by the Italian Interior Designer Renzo Mongiardino’s set of Nesting Tables.
