Hi there Claire

You haven't really said much about the course you are currently on or the courses that you are thinking of doing.

If I were you, I would type in a search (top right) 'education' and 'short courses' and have a good old read before you part with your money.

Hi
I spoke to a lady called sally at "the nail training company" it's in back of the Proffssional nails march editon which I got from the excel. she said she writes for Scatch and done aricles for Prof nails too. She said as an independant does not promote one brand but will train you on one you want to.
She seemed full of advise, they have a 2 day course in one system. i want to learn and keep learning. CND sounds really good what prices are their courses in acrylic, how long do they last?
