Born and raised in Connecticut, I grew up in an environment where creativity and individuality were strongly encouraged. I realized at a young age that I wanted to create. After High school I decided to go to college for Graphic Design, but soon after concluded that my heart wasn’t in it. My dreams of being a designer were stifled only by the feeling that I might not have what it took. When my nails started to turn heads everywhere I went, I realized it was time to go for it. What did I have to lose? I started designing my own nails because I couldn’t find salons that were able to do what I wanted done. It is not exactly how I thought I would get started, I just kind of fell into it, but I am passionate about it. Nails, for me, had become my most important accessory when putting an outfit together. We ALL know how important accessories are. With that in mind I decided to acquire my certification in Nail Technology, and to develop my own line of hand painted nails. After premiering my first couple collections of nails I expanded my line to offer other handmade accessories.


Dominique Reneé represents self expression, confidence, individuality, boldness, and opposition.


I am inspired by the people, places and things that surround me; adversities, prosperities, words, phrases, thoughts, feelings and emotions. I design to deliver messages, and to provoke thoughts and feelings. I design to inspire; I design because it is what I was designed to do.
