WHAT CAN I DO NEXT?
​
This course will allow you to carry out a structured manicure on short to medium length natural nails. This is ideal for clients who need a strength layer to help gel polish manicures last longer, or for clients wishing to grow their nails. Builder gel can be left plain nude (in a variety of shades) or can be finished with gel polish or nail art design.
]If you wish to progress your skills further, to repair broken nails, to extend length or to maintain length of long to extra-long nails, you can come back to complete an extensions course - either in hard gel or acrylic.
