GEL EXTENSIONS COURSE
Course price: 950$
(Practicing on an artificial hand and your own hand)
Duration: 8 hours
Starting time: 10am
The course that I would recommend you the most. As a nail technician with 3D modelling and architecture background I assure you that clients will fall in love with any shape you make for them. With a thorough approach you can make extensions look natural but thick at the same time. If you think it’s impossible I’ll change your mind by the end of the course. Also it’s important to say that clients love getting extensions and gel fills done because they don’t have to worry about chipped nail polish, nails peeling and they last much longer than regular manicure. Of course if they’re done properly.
If you’re able to work with extensions:
- You’re not going to sweat when a client asks you to repair one broken nail
- Clients that get extensions done usually stick to one nail tech (you will build your own clientele faster)
- After extensions performing regular manicures seems like a piece of cake to you.
- Your filing movements feel more confident and strong which gives a good impression to a client even if you perform a regular manicure
- You earn more money because not everyone has skills to work with them and they’re in huge demand in Canada that’s why you’re at a very low risk to stay without clients.
Main focus of this course: full set sculpted gel extensions, gel extensions with plastic tips, gel fills (in additional classes)
You will learn:
- How to build perfect architecture of a nail
- How to work with both plastic tips and paper forms to build an extension
- Techniques how to speed up the process of building hard gel
- Shaping nails using both hand file and e-file
- The most efficient ways to make nails last as long as possible
Bonus:
- How to communicate with a client to make sure you understand the desired shape correctly
- A few tips how to remove thick bulky gel/acrylic faster
- How to correctly build a price list based on time
- I will help you to take “selling” pictures of your best work to build your nail portfolio
Recommendation: This is the only course that I would strongly recommend to extend it since one day is not enough to master most of the common shapes. On the main day we will most likely have enough time only for square and oval. Coffin, almond, stiletto and hybrid shapes I would recommend to perform with my mentorship to make sure all 10 nails end up the same shape, length, architecture and none of them are crooked.
Additional day for the course – 400$
