What this course is
Nails are one of the friendliest ways into the beauty industry — lower kit cost, fast bookings, and clients who come back every three weeks. This eight-week certificate takes you from nail anatomy and hygiene through to structured gel manicures, soak-off, pedicures and the nail art that fills an Instagram feed and a booking calendar.
You practise on real hands from week one, building speed and a clean, safe routine that protects both you and the natural nail. We are strict about sanitation and product safety because that is what separates a professional from a kitchen-table hobbyist — and it is what a salon owner checks before they hire you.
By the end you can run a full appointment confidently, price your work, and either walk into a salon interview or set up a tidy, licensed home studio. We cover the unglamorous bits too: stocking up sensibly, managing soak-off without damage, and handling the occasional lifting or allergy issue honestly.
Good for: Anyone starting a nail career or opening a licensed home studio.
