I will demonstrate a full set from start to finish to give you an idea of what a set of nails will look like in a salon environment.
You will then preform a full set on a model while I shadow you.
We will spend a lot of time on perfecting finish filing in this class, be prepared, I will be picky!!!
To finish off the class I will show you proper lighting and different angles for your photos.

In the morning I will demonstrate a fill on a model. After a short break you will bring your model in (the same model as class 3) and preform a full service from start to finish with me shadowing you.
Day Five
Class start time- 10am
Salon Day!! This is my absolute favorite day, you will have the opportunity to preform 4 services today on clients to get an idea of what a busy day in the salon is like. You will be doing a full set, a fill, a removal and a gel polish manicure. I will shadow these appointments and jump in when necessary, try your hardest to fly solo when you can, this real world experience can’t be beat!
