NEW FOR MANCHESTER 2009!
Student Competition Technician of the Year 2009
FREE ENTRY! A brand new challenge will be introduced in Manchester by Professional Beauty to encourage training companies, product suppliers and colleges to support newly trained nail technicians entering a nail competition for the first time. Competitors who are placed in the Manicure, Pedicure, Novice Tip & Overlay, Showcase and Photographic categories can accumulate points. To qualify, all competitors must enter the Manicure and the Tip and Overlay Novice categories and should also enter the other 3 categories above to gain maximum possible points. Rachel Myatt, Competition director says Manchester is always our most popular competition for recently trained techs and so always attracts the colleges. All entrants have been doing nails, of any type or system, for under 2 years and have never entered a competition before so nerves are in abundance and frequent trips to the toilet are perfectly normal! The competition staff will give extra special support to our babies as we believe they are our future champions.Student Competition Technician of the Year 2009
