You dont have to train with CND, but if you are going to do mani/shellac & acrylics (L&P) it would be the best course to do. Its always nice to have the support of a big company, you can in the future if you have problems just pick up the phone.
Manicure & pedicures wont take you a long time to master. Its theory, learning about nails, which you could make a head start on, then It is the routine, once that is stuck in your head & you can paint nails neatly you've mastered it 😊 its just then practise.
Once you've got that add shellac worth doing the course (its not expensive)& go from there... Use the money you earn to add L&P.
Ok you aren't going to profit over night, or be great over night... It will take hours of hard work. Its not a quick fix. But if it is something you are passionate about it will be worth it! Ive been going 2 years now doing Bio sculpture nails & only recently am I 100% confident in my work (I do it part time, & lots of things can knock your confidence along the way) I think it helps to believe in the products you use.
Good luck xx
