Educator - Tricia Bolton
Patricia Bolton is an educator for Luminary Nail Systems and a passionate nail artist with a strong foundation in art and education. Professionally licensed since 2020, Patricia — often known as Tricia — has been creating nail art long before her career began, having done her own nails since the age of 14.
With a lifelong love of drawing, painting, and creative expression, Tricia views nail artistry as a form of wearable art — small, detailed masterpieces her clients get to carry with them. She is especially known for her love of intricate designs, character art, and fine detail work.
Tricia discovered Luminary Nail Systems early in her nail education after seeking recommendations from experienced nail professionals in the Utah and Idaho area. The feedback was unanimous, and she purchased her first Luminary starter kit while still in school. She has been a dedicated fan and advocate of the brand ever since.
Education has always been a driving force in Tricia's career path. Originally aspiring to become a high school art teacher, she ultimately found her true calling within the beauty industry. Becoming a nail educator allowed her to merge her passion for teaching with her love of nail artistry — making her role with Luminary a natural fit.
Outside of the salon and classroom, Tricia enjoys spending time with her husband of over 15 years, Matt, their two teenage children, two dogs, and two rabbits. She is also deeply involved in the arts, performing with a local community theater and narrating audiobooks in her spare time.
