Hey, I'm the CND Ambassador for London. The shellac beginners course is exactly that - a beginners course. We usually don't expect the students to be excellent painters. Painting is a skill and will come with practice and experience. In this particular course, We concentrate and is more...

Hi Soniamarie, it is in fact Liquid & powder - except the powder comes in a pot labeled as 'powder gel'. They use it with liquid. Glad you found the info useful. :D

Hi Everyone, my name is Anna Lee and I am a CND Education Ambassador in the UK. For the past 4 years, I have been working with the SEA (South East Asian) nail community helping them progress and move forward by encouraging them to get better education. In the past 4 years, I have signed hundreds...

It's not 'members' as such. Just my non-SEA students that have expressed their interest in competing. The only 'criteria' you need is 100% dedication. Skills and techniques can be learnt; Dedication comes from the heart. We have CND Ambassadors all over the country, Amelia is right, there is...

Louise, I have a SEA team at the moment but me and Natalia are going to put together another NON-SEA team ready for Nailympics next year for techs who are interested, so we are able to take our expertise and contacts to open up opportunities and help people who are Non-SEAs and who wants to...

There IS a UK team. The team is called Team SEA. I mentor and support this team. Sure, it is a team of South East Asian nail techs, but they all entered flying the UK flag representing the UK. When they win, it is a UK win. The fact that they are all SEAs is irrelevant, they can represent UK...

Sorry, not managed to read the whole thread so not able to give opinions but really have to pick up on this one for clarification as it seems like no one has noticed it. The CND complete for the complete novice is a 14 days course spread over a 2/3 month period. It is NOT 4 days at all.

... Or how many people from the S2 team were already there serving and helping....? Excuses are never good in any way, but pictures do speak much more than a thousand words...

Did anyone notice how big our stand already was...?

I have seen Directors from companies standing all day talking to their customers before, but I can't recall a Director of a huge company going into the warehouse bending, packing and getting their hands dirty. I took this photo of Samuel just after he served a customer at the Heros collection...

The CND gel brushes are the same for soft and hard gels. However, we do recommend you to purchase a separate brush for each system to avoid cross contamination.

Hope this helps. Anna x

Hi, the small SV kit indeed is efficient to do 4 wraps. However, the larger kit is much better value with the ability to do 20 treatments. You will be using your own kit for the wrap on the actual course. Which SV course were you looking to book? The conversion and novice? For the conversion...

I missed this thread too - until someone who is very passionate about the subject directed me. Regrettably, I am not able to come on here as much as I used to, purely because teaching and educating has now become a huge part of my already busy life. Lee's wonderfully written post really sums...

Buy another one for your Shellac....!! :D:D:D

For those of you who has the CND Brisa Lite silver case and the full Shellac collection. You might be pleased to know that the whole collection fits into the case very nicely. Colours and bottles easily seen and accessible, bag can be zipped up to avoid UV light and leakage, all the bottles...

Actually, this is true and correct. It is possible to purchase shellac as soon as you have a sweet squared account. To do so, you must send over a copy of your manicure and pedicure certificates as minimal requirements. However, If you have attend a CND Shellac class and NOT purchased the...

Sorry, I'm a little confused...? Can someone explain to me what exactly are the 'health & Safety' issues regarding children wearing shellac..? Why is it 'dangerous'..? What part of the shellac service is not dangerous to a adult but dangerous for a child..? What are the health and safety...

I've had a few students bring their men to my classes before - I didn't mind and was happy as long as they were. Men's nails are more usually difficult to do because of the size and shape, but as long as you can practise doing the PREP and is able to tip and apply product on them then it...

It also says another 'clue' is 'The nail technician often cannot or refuses to speak any English therefore unable to answer your questions in relation to which products they are using.' I have taught a very talented Vietnamese girl in my class before. She doesn't speak much English but she is...
