Max 10 Students

No overcrowding. You’re not competing for attention or trying to keep up in a packed room.

1:10 Educator Ratio

Direct access to your educator throughout the entire class. You’re able to ask questions, get corrections, and stay on track in real time.

Hands-On Corrections

This isn’t a watch-and-leave class. You’ll receive individual guidance, adjustments, and support while you’re actually working.

This isn't a classroom where you'll sit in the back and watch someone do nails.

Class sizes are intentionally kept small so every student receives personalized corrections, live demonstrations, and one on one guidance throughout the day.

You'll practice every technique as you learn it while I correct your application in real time. Instead of leaving with pages of notes, you'll leave understanding exactly what to fix and how to continue improving.

Whether you're self taught, in nail school, newly licensed, or years into your career, this class is designed to help acrylic finally make sense.

This is the same acrylic system I've taught across the country through nail schools, professional classes, and brand education.

You'll learn the complete acrylic application process from prep to finished filing, including:

• Acrylic ratio and bead control

• Product placement and working in zones

• Brush control and cuticle application

• Apex, structure, and balance

• Shaping and refining

• Faster application without sacrificing quality

• Better retention and preventing lifting

• How to recognize and fix mistakes before they become habits

This class teaches you why each step matters so you can confidently work with any professional acrylic system.

• Full day, hands on acrylic application training

• Live step by step demonstrations

• Individual coaching throughout the day

• Real time corrections while you practice

• Personalized feedback based on your technique

• Small class size for maximum one on one support

• A repeatable acrylic application system you can use on every client

• Acrylic ratio, structure, and filing techniques that actually make sense

• Speed building methods without sacrificing quality

• Business tips and industry insight from years of experience

• Networking with fellow nail professionals

• Sponsored take home products and giveaways (when available)

• Certificate of Completion

• Approximately 5 to 8 hours of instruction. Class ends when every student has completed the curriculum, not when the clock runs out.

No license is required.

This is a skill based educational class and does not provide state licensing hours or a cosmetology/manicurist license.

Students who are not licensed will practice on training fingers.

Licensed professionals may practice on themselves if they choose.

Open to ages 14+ with parent or guardian permission.

A supply list will be sent after enrollment so you'll learn using the products and tools you'll continue using after class.
