Inside the course

Consider every detail.
Refine your pedicure.

Theory and guided live-model practice, from workspace preparation and nail, cuticle and skin assessment to Russian pedicure techniques, hard skin care, gel colour and finishing.

  1. Health & safety theory

    Review contraindications, safe e-file operation, PPE and dust control, and recognise when a service should be adapted or referred.

  2. Workspace setup: ergonomics, comfort & safety

    Consider posture, seating, equipment placement and hand positioning to support comfortable, controlled working practices.

  3. Consultation & assessment

    Assess the nails, cuticles and hard skin to tailor the pedicure to the areas you are working with.

  4. Pedicure e-file bits & workflow

    Select suitable e-file bits and a workflow to match the skin type you are working with.

  5. Russian pedicure cuticle preparation

    Combine manual tools, e-file bits and scissor refinement for delicate, clean preparation, then polish the skin.

  6. Toenail shaping

    Refine toenail length and shape in line with safety principles and the ergonomics of the foot, considering toe position, comfort and the natural nail.

  7. Hard skin & heel care

    Explore e-file bits and PodoDisk work for controlled hard skin care, adapting the process to skin condition.

  8. Gel base selection & application

    Select products suitable for toenails and practise appropriate, controlled base application.

  9. Colour application & finishing

    Learn to apply colour seamlessly under the proximal fold in thin, even layers, with controlled brush placement and clean contours. Refine top-coat application for a smooth finish and a clear line of light.

  10. Feedback & improvements

    I’ll review your work from the day, highlight where you can improve and guide you on how to tackle the issues you experienced. You’ll leave with clear, practical steps to focus on as you continue practising after the course.

  11. Photography basics

    Explore phone settings, lighting and foot positioning to photograph the detail of your finished work clearly.
