Its great to see that the manicure comp has some intreast as there were only 2 entered at both excel and manchester so you stand a good chance!
Just to say first that its not excel in sept its at Earls court!!
You get 1 hour to perfrom a manicure on both hands, so you model is checked before and its about the difference you can make, so dont use a pre-manicured model!
Follow the normal routine, you get extra points for a good massage. You finish by applying 4 red painted nails, and 4 french manicure painted nails, and the 2 thumbs buffed to a high shine.
Then you have to do a written test, 10 questions, 3 points for each on things like contra-actons and massage. I could go on but if you want more info, call me at work on 01322 555789, i teach till 4.15 everyday but am in the office after till 5.30.
I hope that helps, and good luck!
