What will you be learning in this 3 day class?
Gel Polish - Day 1
Our Gel Polish Application course is designed for beginners to cover the basics of nail preparation for gel manicures. You will also be covering basic nail anatomy, hygiene & sanitation, nail tools and how to file the nail correctly and safely prepare the nail for any manicure or gel polish application.
Learn Gel Polish application including correct prep, removal without damaging the nail and perfecting your gel polish application including Plain & French Polish applications that make the nail stronger with no chips, breaks or cracks in the nail.
We will also go through using BIAB (builder gel in a bottle) to add strength and structure to the natural nail for those clients who may have weaker nails
Soft Gel Extensions - Day 2
This has seriously become one of our favourite systems! This course will introduce you to the fastest and easiest extension system available on the market today! Perfect for a full set or to fix a broken nail, this is an essential skill for all Nail Technicians. Learn how to correctly size tips, blend and apply as well as the easiest way to determine the correct ratio of adhesive for the size of the nail plate. Finish the day with a gel polish application to help refine your skills.
These tip extensions already come pre-etched and in various shapes including Coffin, Stiletto, Almond, Square & Oval so we have taken out the hard work for you. Used in conjunction with our Nail Primer & Tip Gel Glue which will give you at least 21+ days wear with no chipping, lifting and a long lasting SOAK OFF tip for easy removal.
BIAB - Day 3
BIAB - Builder In A Bottle, is a product that is so versatile! It comes in 3 colours, Clear, Cover Pink and Cover Nude.
In this class you will learn how to use this product as a strengthening system for the natural nail as well as how to use it to backfill Soft Gel Extensions.
We will also show you how to create extensions using Sculpting Forms to lengthen the nail. Finish filing the extension to perfect the finish before we go onto more gel polish application to help refine your skills.
PLEASE NOTE: We do not use and e-file in this course as we believe that as a beginners course, it is more important to learn to perfect your application so you have minimal filing and it is import to perfect your hand filing. Once you have perfect this then we do recommend doing an e-file course as they are great and have their uses for a more experienced Nail Tech but not a newbie :)
