What will I be learning?
During this course you will learn a full range of nail extensions and overlays. There is also tuition on free form sculptured nails to suit varying client requirements. Creative Nail Art is included using airbrush techniques.
How will I learn?
The course is a mix of practical and theory sessions delivered by qualified and experienced Nail Technicians. The emphasis is towards practical development and there are more salon sessions than theory. Initially you will be working on members of your group and you will be required to model for other students.
Once you have reached a satisfactory standard you will work on clients (members of the general public) booked through our dedicated reception area. All assessment is carried out on paying clients.
What else might I want to know?
You will take part in organised visits to the main trade exhibitions each year. You will also assist in organising in-house competitions which you can observe if you are not an entrant. Pamper days are provided for several local groups including The Torbay Carer's Trust and Alzheimer's Society we have also made links with Rowcroft Hospice and deliver pamper days to carer's of their patients. These experiences give you the chance to work with different clients and are a useful preparation for employment.
Key skills are vital for the development a professional image and salon persona. Employers in surveys state that they require basic IT, communication and number skills in their workforce.
IT is studied as a part of this course.
You will need to buy a uniform and kits of equipment.
What can I do afterwards?
