PROGRAM SPECIFICS

Enhancements - Adding artificial length to the natural nail is an ancient art that has been in practice since Egyptian times. In this segment, you will receive extensive training in creating beautiful extensions by applying tips or by sculpting, using both gel and acrylic. You will learn the art of e-filing to safely and efficiently blend, shape and rebalance the nail, and also learn how to apply a nail prosthesis.

Overlays - An overlay, with either gel or acrylic application, is applied to the natural nail in order to provide strength and beauty to that nail. This segment will provide you with in-depth training on how to effectively apply a gel or acrylic overlay to all nail shapes and to all nail lengths and to perform nail mending for clients who have split and weakened nail plates. As well you will be able to provide your clients with gel toe nails to give them a flawless, long lasting French look or to fix that one chipped corner.

Nail Art - Set yourself apart as an artistic Nail Technician. Discover your brand of creativity by providing clients with unique, modern nail art. Learn all the current trends; learn to apply nail art with a free hand; learn to create interesting designs, as well as blending various colour combinations using polish, gel or acrylic.

Spa Manicure - As hands are often the first that we notice about someone, a manicure is an essential treatment. In this segment you will learn proper nail shaping, cuticle management, massage techniques and meticulous polish application and effectively perform a water, hot oil or a deluxe spa manicure. You will be able to turn an essential treatment into a luxurious day at the spa.

Spa Pedicure - A pedicure is heaven for your feet. Provide the ultimate service for your clients by learning proper nail shaping, cuticle and callosity management, blissful massage techniques and meticulous polish application. This segment will enable you to provide a memorable service in the form of a basic or spa pedicure that will keep your clients coming back.

Business - As chains of nail salons continue to grow, it is essential that you set yourself apart from your peers and be known for your quality service and expert techniques for the booming industry of Nail Technology. This segment will provide you with business management concepts, salon set up and design, sales and marketing techniques and proper client consultation.

Theories - Knowledge is the key to a successful professional practice. You will attain this knowledge during theory lectures including sanitation and sterilization, anatomy, chemistry, nutrition, nail disorders, life skills and more. You will also obtain the necessary skills in which to successfully market yourself or to start your own business, and the appropriate procedures for client consultation and care.
