GIMMEAHAND OHIO COSMETICS MANUFACTURING BUILDING

 GIMMEAHAND INC. began in 2005 as Ohio’s 1st Nails Only Beauty School. In 2015 we launched our first product systems and began bottling and filling in our school facility by hand. Yup! Every single polish bottle was poured by hand by either myself or my mom. I have gained so much experience in the past 10 years from participating in accelerators that have helped me identify my growth opportunities with the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses to manufacturing leadership training with the Manufacturers Works Organization. 

We have since secured funding for our automatic filling machinery with Huntingtons Lift Local Program and now we are raising the funds to secure the building and start mixing our custom formulas.

This campaign is more than a business venture—it’s a way to address critical challenges in the nail industry. With this facility, we’ll streamline production, ensure product consistency, and support beauty professionals with the high-quality products they deserve. Contributors to this campaign are investing in a mission to elevate the industry, create jobs, and support local communities.

My previous projects, including the successful launch and operation of three beauty schools and a thriving product line, demonstrate my commitment to excellence and follow-through. This campaign’s success will ripple far beyond me—helping nail professionals as well as beauty industry professionals grow their businesses and deliver exceptional results to their clients and students. 

As a 27-year veteran in the nail industry and founder of three successful beauty schools, over the years, I’ve mentored thousands of professionals, developed industry-leading nail products, and built a reputation for delivering innovation and quality. Today, I’m asking for your help to take the next big step: securing a permanent manufacturing facility for the next step on our journey. This will  cultivate education, jobs and opportunities for entrepreneurs in our community. With your help we can address supply chain issues and provide access to quality finished goods materials that do not have to be sourced internationally but can now be found right here in Ohio. 

Your support is invaluable. Together, we can raise $500,000 to secure the building and create a lasting legacy in the beauty industry, create jobs in our community and bring back manufacturing to Ohio. Let’s make this vision a reality and build a brighter future for nail care and beauty professionals who want to make an impact in their business and their communities.
