My first introduction to nails was with Essential Nails Gel Home Study course. Never having done anything with nails before I didn't know what to expect. I'm pleased to say I was very impressed. The standard of instruction was very clear and easy to follow and I like the fact that I now have a nail trainer to use at my own pace for other systems.
My second experience with a nail course was a local education course. At a hundred pound for four days I thought it too good a chance to miss. I paid my money, booked my four days off work and trecked all the way across London to get to the course. Unfortunately, with over twenty of us all huddled around the instructor it was difficult to see the demonstration, we then had to practice on each other. By the end of the first day my fingertips were either red raw or covered in horrible lumpy acrylic - and there was still three more days to go!!! My fingers still haven't recovered and that was in February!

To top it all I paid sixty quid for a kit full of inferior quality products that I'll never use again!
My next course is booked for the 26th April at the London College of Fashion running for nine Saturday mornings. It's cost me an arm and a leg, but I've got high hopes for it has small class sizes and I'll be taking my own kit with me.
Phew - bit of a long reply, but you did ask!
