Hard Gel

When I was starting out as a nail tech I was so nervous and it is so normal to feel that way. But, I had the passion needed to push myself into it. So I ended up taking a course that was a single day, start to finish it was about 8 hours and I actually did three courses in that time if I remember that correctly, my hard gel training, gel polish training and acrylic training which needless to say was not enough time to leave feeling confident. So I had to improvise and start self teaching and ended up reenforcing the qualifications I had gained with a city and guilds certificate at a college near me. Looking back made me realise I wanted to help people get into this industry with a stronger entry than I had, I'm now so passionate about properly educating people and I want my learners to leave their course feeling confident and empowered, so here’s my detailed online course!

In this section I go through some things I wish I knew when I was a beginner, as well as some things others wish they'd had known as a beginner. It's important to remember that we all start somewhere but hopefully we can bypass you past some of these things so you have a running start.

Prep is the most important part in long lasting nails from the nail tech’s behalf. Aftercare is very important on the client’s side.

But let’s talk about prep first. While it’s the most important step, it’s also very Important to not overdo it!
