You’re Only Helpless When Your Nails Are Drying

Becoming an Advanced Manicurist is a great way to get into the salon industry quickly. With one of our shortest programs, you can go from beginner to an artificial nail specialist, nail art master or even an educator. If you enjoy attention to detail, a fast-paced environment and making people look good from “tip to toe,” this may just be a match made in heaven.

Extend Beyond the Basics

In our program, you can learn the basics of hand and foot care through both theory and practical learning. We start with teaching you about the structure and function of the nails along with manicuring and pedicuring services, but it doesn’t end there.

You can get hands-on experience while we go beyond the basics to teach you the art of nail design. You can learn how to create artificial nail enhancements, apply different polish techniques and types as well as create beautiful nail art master pieces. We’ll even touch on the business basics of how you can build your book and keep clients coming back. If you love expressing your creativity and adding a little glitter to your nails, our Advanced Manicuring program could be a good fit for you.

Testimonials

"Very Thorough & a Great Value. I’ve only been once for a hair cut & a wash, but am already planning my spa side visit. Treated myself, my daughter & my mother & the ladies we each had were great. They were meticulous & ensured the cuts were just right. Also loved that we had the opportunity to sit next to each other."

Sandi Blazek Donafee

"I took my mom there for her birthday, and for my hair done as well. The young lady who did my hair was AWESOME!!! Her name was Briann I think and she was amazing. I have "natural ethnic" hair and she talked me through everything she was doing and did an amazing job. She has a customer for life!! My hair feels like it has NEVER before, she was funny, humble, sweet, knowledgeable and made the whole visit fun. Her tip was more then half of my cost and I felt she deserved more. I want her to always do my hair even AFTER she graduates. I can’t say enough about this young ladies talent and my enjoyment of being around her. IU Briann."
