What shall I bring with me?

Absolutely nothing! Well, almost nothing.
We have everything you need for the time you are with us but do ask that you come with a winning smile, appetite to learn, patience and passion.

We also recommend you wear comfortable clothing, especially for the pedicure, and have naked/bare nails.

Please note we will not be able to remove any extensions or colour from your nails during the course or at the end of it.
 

So please ensure you come to the course with naked/bare nails. We will go through the removal procedure during the course so please prep yourself by buying acetone (generally found at any pharmacy or online) so that you can remove your extensions or colour at home.

 

Are kits included in the course? 

Absolutely! Kits are included ONLY for the duration of the course (not take home).

Our trainer will talk you through the different brands to consider before making your own kit purchase.
