Foundation Hybrid Gel Course 5 days

Our Manicure & Gel Polish & Hard Gel Course will teach you everything you will need to know from the beginning to cover all aspects of both practical study plus the underpinning knowledge to begin a career in nail technology.
A qualification in gel polish treatment is very popular and sought after by both salons and clients alike.

This includes tasks such as performing the perfect manicure on natural nails plus how to apply and remove hard gel and gel polish safely and correctly.
This course will comprehensively take you through every step of health and safety, anatomy and physiology, client consultation, perfect cuticle work, nail polish & gel polish application, product control and placement. In addition we cover full aftercare advice.

At Crystal Nails we have an extensive and varied range of gel polishes so a proportion of the online theory days will be covering product knowledge.
