Inside the course
Understand the technique.
Refine your practice.
Start with cuticle and nail assessment, then work through the full service on your model. Product selection and technique are explained as you practise, with no separate theory module.
Cuticle & nail assessment
Analyse the cuticle condition and nail type first. Tailor cuticle preparation, e-file bit selection and product choice to the nails you are working with.
Safe & efficient product removal
Remove existing product with the e-file, selecting suitable e-file bits, RPMs and pressure. Refine hand positioning and control for safe, efficient work.
Cuticle pocket preparation
Use e-file bits and manual tools in a combined method to open the cuticle pocket and prepare the surrounding skin safely, efficiently and precisely. Tailor your approach to the cuticle and skin type you are working with.
Cuticle trimming with scissors
Practise controlled scissor work to trim the prepared cuticle cleanly and precisely.
Skin polishing
Refine and polish the skin for a clean, even finish, adapting the technique to the skin you are working with.
Nail preparation: tools & liquids
Prepare and etch the nail plate mechanically, then select and apply dehydrators, pH balancers, primers and the appropriate base coat for the nail type and product system.
BIAB selection & suitability
Test and compare BIAB systems for different nail types and lifestyles. Understand when to choose each product, recognise nails that are not suitable for BIAB, and identify when another product system is needed.
Thin, durable BIAB application
Build an aesthetic, balanced structure with a natural appearance and even opacity. Refine apex placement and stress-area reinforcement, using controlled application for strength without bulk and no surface filing.
Precision shape filing
File square, soft square or oval shapes after application. Refine symmetry, sidewalls and filing angles for balanced, proportionate results.
Top coat & line of light alignment
Apply top coat to create a smooth, even surface with a clean, aligned line of light.
Photography & content creation
Prepare the hands and nails for photographs and videos. Explore device choice, phone settings, lighting, bulb selection and studio setup, adjusting exposure for different skin tones to showcase your work clearly.
