How long does it take to do a nail course?

Those funny little keratin claws of ours sure have made a big impact over the last few decades, with nails becoming one of the most popular beauty treatments throughout the world and nail technicians becoming in high demand. And this is nothing new – people have been decorating their nails for centuries! Our American neighbours over the pond at Refinery29 shed some light on the extensive history of nail treatment, showing us that a good manicure truly will never go out of style.

Getting our nails done has become a token of self-love that we pay to ourselves. Relaxing for a few hours and having our hard-working hands and feet tended to can be incredibly restorative, not to mention how a fresh mani-pedi or set of acrylics can boost your confidence.

Reaching for the stars

Passionate about nail care and maintenance? Want to give people dazzling digits that never fail to impress? Then perhaps a career as a nail technician is the path for you!

But there is much work to be done, my friend. Nail tech requires a high level of skill and knowledge to ensure clients’ satisfaction and safety. You will need to be equipped with know-how about nail health, care and maintenance, correct and safe procedures when it comes to technical treatments, colour palettes and tones, as well as having a tool belt filled with all the latest nail tricks and treatments.

The nail industry has truly bloomed in recent years, the goal being accessible, high-quality treatments that result in strong, longer-lasting nails, as well as a focus on natural nail and cuticle health.
