$25 million/year is incredible! It's a simple concept but the timing and execution was flawless. Congrats on your hard work, Michael Elliott.

25 million in revenue this past year. Way to prove them wrong. Well done Michael 👏🏼

[Achlys]

I work for this franchise and literally HALF of our guests are there for manicures and/or pedicures on a daily basis and they all really enjoy the services

[warriorluxenailco.]

Dopest thing ever I thought about this years ago ! And now I work there ! He definitely made this idea happen ! Our salon has over 700 members it definitely makes money

[pepsico]

I love how Robert is over there having a conversation with the nail tech during the pitch

[mattysheehan]

I’ve been to this place a few times for a haircut (awesome place) and I’m just now realizing the nails is referring to the manicures lol

[anovosedlik]

Great branding, great idea, and most importantly, GREAT guy! So glad that he's killing it!

Nothing wrong with men having clean & cut nails. A lot of women appreciate it.

[annkirshner]

My husband would love this. He's been going to my salon for 20 plus years

[OldGreg]

My wife works for that company it's a good company to work for

[Arthuur]

He had that smirk 😏. I knew for sure he would be successful even without the sharks. Congrats to you.

[same.]

The Sharks were too myopic on this. This guy was filling a glaring need in the market and had proof of concept sales for the first store. Franchising was the only way forward. Glad he’s killing it.

[janmaglipon]

I don’t get why Damon thanked him for what he’s done for hiphop

[openlyclosed]

I remember watching this shortly after it aired and was gutted he did not get a deal. I had strong feeling the sharks were wrong on this one. I just saw this today by chance and I am so happy he went on to be successful with the business.

[eviannam]

Would love an update to what the sharks think now 😆

[runswithscissors]

Basically from what I gathered from the sharks is they think this is an incredible idea but they don’t think they could really help him; he’s already got it figured out. He just needs to do it on his own; I think they actually helped him out here by not stealing 20% of his business.

Thank you CNBC, I haven't even pressed the link but I definitely Know Robert passed on it.

[dickievaplon]

They also do beards, nails, facials, hair etc. Going to get my hair done from them for the 1st time tomorrow. Also comes with a free drink/cocktail!

[LizzNjagah]

I bet they are all crying right now.. he really proved them wrong.

[mattysheehan]

The one I go to has the “as seen on shark tank” which made me think they totally got an offer lol.
Satisfying to see when all the sharks are wrong haha
