Who's done VTCT level 2 nail services?

[pretty-in-pink]

hey everyone....how are you all?

i was wondering if anyone has done a VTCT level 2 nail services course and whether you had to purchase a nail kit?

on my college website it says they provide all equipment but then says home study/practice is required so surely there must be a kit right? plus some girl i know said she knows people whos doing the course and had to purchase a kit but was wondering if anyone whoz done this course had to?

thanks huns

hi ,sure thats what i did when i was at hull college and i had to get a kit that was around £70 (it is acrylic nail course right?).
if your not hundred percent on doing this course however i would recommend going and training with creative. iv recently done a conversion course with them but wish id started with them at the begining of my nail carreer. sure i would have learned so much more and hell of alot quicker.
hope helps xx wish someone had given me this advice yrs ago xx

what kind of brands did you use?

At college we were trained in NSI but halfway through my course I converted to EzFlow and my tutor understood and let me use a different product, I think at college it all depends on the tutor tbh x

I started my course last Tuesday evening and I had to buy a kit. We are using NSI.

oh right cool maybe they use nsi at my college also i have sent in a form requesting information on if a kit needs to be purchased and what brands they use but its good to know that other people have done training and can get information from them also....did you do acrylic,gel,silk/fibre etc in your VTCT course?

My VTCT was not as good as I expected tbh and I trained with Ezflow... as I finished the course a bit earlier than the other students.
I learned tip and overlay on my VTCT and some fibreglass...hence the reason for further classes....
VTCTs are different in every area so I really don't know what you'll get from your course hun but I hope it's a good start for you x

Your not being a pain hun,im glad i can help.xxxxxxxx

oh right well as far as i know they cover acrylic,gel,silk fibre,maintance,mani/pedi,nail art,in fills etc so it seems like it covers a fair bit but after the course id proberly convert to a different system and gain abit more training from other brands such as CND or Ezflow but i think the VTCT would be good as a starting point and teach me how to do different types of enhancements then from there once qualified advance my skills
