ONLINE ULTIMATE GEL COURSE
You don't need any qualifications or experience in nails to do this course
There is no time limit - once you buy the course you can take as long as you like and stop when you need to, then go back to the course when you have time.
You will receive separate Diplomas for BIAB, Gel Polish, Hard Gel and Gel Design so you may want to start off by completing just the case studies for BIAB. Provided you meet the required standard you will receive your Diploma for BIAB and then you can come back at a later date and complete the other parts, i.e. Gel Polish, Hard Gel, Gel Design.
You can use any brand of products you choose but we do recommend you use products designed for professional use rather than DIY home kits
