Gel course for beginners - one day

If you're serious about becoming a nail tech and want to build a strong foundation for starting a successful nail business offering gel polish, this course is for you. This isn’t just a basic nail course; we’ll also cover French tips, social media strategies, client base building, pricing, and photography, ensuring you're ready to grow your business.

This one-day course, available on a one-on-one or two-on-one basis at my home salon in Featherstone, will provide everything you need to know, from detailed theory to hands-on practice.

Before the course, you’ll receive a link to access the full manual in PDF format (you’ll also get a physical copy on the day), video demonstrations, and a theory test to complete ahead of time. Don’t worry if the test feels challenging—we’ll go over it together on the day! I’ll also send a lesson plan in advance so you can prepare, and a light lunch will be provided.

After the course, you’ll need to submit three case studies of nails you’ve done on clients. Once I’m happy with your work, I’ll send you your accredited certificate.

Gel polish & builder gel for beginners - one day

This is my most popular course, designed for those who want to offer both gel and builder gel services. Builder gel is becoming one of the most sought-after nail treatments, providing a thicker consistency that helps promote nail growth and overall nail health.

In this one-day course, we'll cover both gel application and builder gel application, ensuring you leave feeling confident and ready to work on clients.

Held in a one-on-one or two-on-one format at my home salon in Featherstone, we’ll spend the day covering everything you need to know, from detailed theory to hands-on practice.

Before the course, you’ll receive a link to access the full PDF manual (you’ll also get a physical copy on the day), video demonstrations, and a theory test to complete ahead of time. Don’t worry if you find the test challenging—we’ll review it together on the day! I'll also send you a lesson plan in advance so you can prepare, and a light lunch will be provided.

After the course, you’ll need to submit three case studies of nails performed on clients. Once I’m satisfied with your work, I’ll send you the accredited certificate.

Gel extensions for qualified techs

IIf you're offering builder gel on natural nails, it's time to start offering gel extensions as well! These are ideal for clients who want a bit of extra length or are looking to grow their own nails but aren’t happy with their current length.

This comprehensive one-day course covers everything you need to know about gel extensions, including application techniques and my favorite products. We'll begin with theory to ensure a solid understanding, followed by live demonstrations where you can observe me applying gel extensions using tips and adhesive.

On either a 1-1 or 2-1 basis, you’ll have plenty of time to ask any questions. A light lunch is provided during the course.

Before the course, you’ll receive a manual and video demonstrations to review. Afterward, you’ll complete two case studies so I can assess your progress. Once you're finished, you'll receive your certificate and be ready to get insured!
