Nail Technician




If the fashion industry is at its peak, can nail fashion and nail care be left behind? Nail technicians are fast becoming a new emerging trend.

The primary profile of a nail technician is manicure, pedicure, nail sculpturing, nail painting, nail extensions etc. With newer technology, the technicians work to give your nails a dazzling look.With funky tattoos, glitter designs, airbrush painting and psychedelic colored gemstones on your nails, it is the next in-thing in the fashion circuit. Even nail piercing is in and so is colored French manicure.

All technicians opt for more than one course, either Gel, or Acrylic nails for example. One can chose a single course or work up through the set of six courses.

Gel Nails Course


This is the absolute beginners course, that takes around 60 hours to complete. Gels are the latest trends in the arena of professional nail enhancements.

Gels are like honey, its applied to the nail and extension with a small brush. Its easier to apply than Acrylics making it apt for beginners. Gel nails are cured using an ultra violet light and are odor free and beautiful to look at. Whether you are an expert or a beginner, you need to learn Gel Nails to offer modern services to your clients.

Acrylic Nails Course


This is also known as 'liquid and powder' and is the classic nail extension system with the highest demand by customers. It usually takes around 80 hours to complete the course.

Small balls of acrylic and powder on a brush are mixed and applied to the nail and extension tip, followed by filing and polishing to give it that required gloss finish. Its the next level from Gel.

Fiberglass Nails Course


This is the most user friendly to the nail, far more aggressive than chemicals, gel or acrylic. After extending the natural nail with tip, small pieces of fiberglass are applied to the nail and coated with resin. Without any odor it looks natural and much easier to maintain.

Airbrushing Nails Course


  • This is as good as learning to paint, as you learn to create intricate designs on the nails.
  • Colored paints are sprayed on to the nails using a small airbrush. Patterns and shapes are created by blending colors or spraying through stencils.
  • You can create thousands of designs and the course contains everything that you ever wanted to learn, from compressors to practical assessment and certification. It takes around 40 hours to pass this course.

Acrylic sculpted nails


This is one of the most expensive nail treatments. The course too is not a cake walk and it takes a minimum of 8 hrs a week for a 12 week course and the results are worth that hard work. In this process, the tip is not used and the entire nail is created entirely from Acrylic powder and liquid, and once you master this skill there is no looking back.

So now that you know about the courses make up your mind to put in that hard work and see it reap the benefits for you.
