From one table at home to two salons, and thousands of hands along the way. Nothing gets skipped, and you always hear why a step exists — no two sets of nails are the same, so what you need is judgement, not a sequence to copy.

What students say

“I only ever did my own nails. After the third lesson I started taking friends. Now it's twenty clients a month, out of a room in my flat.”

What happens once clients book

Technique is only half of it. Pricing, talking to clients, keeping them coming back — nobody teaches this in a nail class, and it decides whether you make a living.

Frequently asked questions

Can I start with no experience?
Yes. Gel Nails 101 starts with the tools, prep and base coat — the first three lessons assume nothing.
Do I need a full kit first?
No. The course comes with a shopping list; around $70 of basics is enough. Buy the expensive gear once clients are booking.
How long do I get access?
Anything you buy is yours for life, updates and new lessons included. You never pay twice.
Will I be ready to take clients?
Technique sets your speed and finish; charging is a separate skill — that's what the pricing and clients course is for.
