Had a lady come in the other day to book an appointment for a new set. She then told me it would be market research for her because she's booked on a course to do nails extensions and nail art but has never had a set of extensions before. So out of interest I ask what course she was doing and where etc. She told me she was going to the local college. Knowing what it's like I cringed. I asked if the course was a national cert course, but she's been told she will get a "diploma". So I asked her how long the course was. One day for the nail art, fair enough, and two days for both gel and acrylic extensions. And the cost? 500 whopping great big ones!
Well I,m gob smacked, two days to learn two systems, walk away with a piece of paper and call yourself a nail tech? I gave the woman the tel no. of Designer Nails and hopes she calls, I think she will.
Is there any likelyhood of some kind of enforcement in this country to ensure that a certain standard of education is given and received before someone can work on the general public?
I get the impression that alot of people are seeing this as a bandwagon to be jumped upon.
