Working with the biggest names in Hollywood entertainment is just another day in the life of vibrant nail artist Britney Tokyo. Typically finding herself behind the scenes at photoshoots, 2000’s footwear juggernaut DC Shoes threw Britney into the spotlight at their recent Women’s campaign. They discuss her process and showcase the meticulous detail in Britney Tokyo’s hand-painted nails, as she collaborated with fellow creatives Brittany Byrd and China.
Born and raised in Japan, Britney Tokyo relocated to Los Angeles, where she began working as a manicurist and documenting her work on social media. After being discovered by Vanessa Hudgens, Britney soon found herself in demand with Hudgens’ friends and quickly earned herself a loyal celebrity roster thanks to her ability to channel the latest beauty and fashion trends into original designs.
Now incredibly in-demand for celebrity music videos, photoshoots, and house calls, Britney finds herself always in new locations and surroundings, constantly inspired and on the move. She has created nails for Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian, Karol G, Rita Ora, Rosalia, Bebe Rexha, and Ariana Grande, to name just a few.
DC Shoes celebrates individuality and those brave enough to follow their dreams, pushing culture forward with grit and determination. To celebrate their campaign launch DC and Britney Tokyo have teamed up for an exclusive giveaway, giving fans the chance to experience the Britney Tokyo celeb manicure experience from the comfort of their own home.
