Question 12

How long do the courses take?

Accepted Answer

This depends on how much time you have to dedicate to the course.  The theory can be done in a day and it is possible to do the case study videos in a day.  If you are working on another person, you will need to wait a couple of weeks before you can carry out your infill/rebalance case study as the nail has to grow, leaving the area at the cuticle to fill.  However, if you are working on yourself, you can file some product away at the cuticle and then do the fill; then you won't have to wait.  You can also do this if using a practice hand.
