About this course
I teach you absolutely everything from start to finish you need to know to perform a professional nail set. Over 2 days you'll master both acrylic application and BIAB builder gel overlays — two of the most in-demand nail services that will keep your diary fully booked. We cover nail prep, structure, apex, shaping, infills, safe removal, colour work and how to combine both systems confidently. As an add-on, I also teach the basics of using an e-file to speed up your sets. The course also includes a business module, where I teach you how to create a business & actually attract clients. Can be booked as 1:1.
Course theory is sent prior to training, so the 2 course days focus on the practical work completely. This is to prevent cramming theory and content overload, when instead you can learn the theory at home, in your own space, comfortably.
