FREE 2-day Challenge. Nail Sculpting Do’s and Dont’s
Very useful i have just started my fist nail Technician job at a salon last week my first set was on a 12 girl i did tips instead of forms and they popped off by Saturday when i did them on Friday i was so embarrassed but I should have known under 15 for gel nails is not a good idea due to oils in the nail bed.
I liked the first 2 video
It was simple and included all basic information about nails types and how work with them...I learned new things with u
Thank u

Very informative ! I will surely recommend this to my friends
you can learn a lot from this lesson i am thankful for this free class about nails
How to get started as a nail technician?
I found the marathon very informative. Nail art products and products you will need were my favorite lessons.
I liked the marathon and how short yet informative it was. I learned the most on how to become a nail technician.
I really enjoyed the marathon. My personal take away were the importance of sanitation and disinfecting. My highlight was the lesson on nail art. I am looking forward to that class.
Great marathon! Very thorough explanation on how to get license information and all of the possibilities with being a nail tech!
Great marathon! I loved the info on reputable websites to buy product and the info on how to have a great social media presence!!
I did enjoy the marathon. The most I learned from this was the varying ways in which to get one’s nail tech license, proper sanitization/sterilization, and how to navigate working in the business.
I liked the marathon. It was very informative. The most informative things I learned were; great supplies for nail decorating and gaining good sources for tools and helpful insights.
I liked the marathon and I learned all sorts of good stuff. Knowing resources for help with getting licensed and where to buy products is very helpful. I liked also liked learning about different paths that can be taken and about others' experiences. I would love to hear more. All in all, very enjoyable and informative!
Very detailed, and understanding.
I did like the marathon I think it was a great start to learn about the educators and the most important details of being a mail technician. The most that o have learned is at the end of the day you’re your own boss! Honestly can’t think of anything at the top of my head about what should come in the next marathon.

Electric File Manicure
For the most part, yes. Everything I learned in this course is new to me but also very valueable as it is not taught by many in such detail. I am not sure of the method behind your lesson plans but sometimes I felt that in compulsory tasks I was not equipped in handling certain obstacles. However, I would notice my obstacle would be addressed in following lessons after the task. But all... read more
Yes I did. Yes I did. Honestly, I felt like everything is quite informative and detailed. I appreciate all the information I learned from this course. Thank you.
Yes everything was very simply explain and easy to understand I learned how to use the drill bits in a new way. Everything great
Love the up close and thorough details of an e-file manicure. A ton! My only experience is what I saw on instagram or what other nail techs did. Know what each bit is actually made for and the best way to appropriately use them was super helpful. Would love to see more "full" e file manicures from start to finish.
Yes! I love the feedback I get I learned different ways of working which I’m excited to try I would LOVE to have access to the course for longer. a busy life and managing an attention deficit disorder sometimes you forget you have a class and 4 months is kinda short. I would love at least 6 months
I did enjoy this class. I am so grateful to have learned more about how to manicure nail biters and men.
Absolutely all was so helpful and easier to knowledge about how to work with the bits, Yes I did learn a lot All of it was just perfect
Thank you so much, I have a greater understanding of the right way to use an e-file, and some techniques to control the e-file to not damage the nail or nail bed. I can see the difference just on my own nails, and have the confidence to use an e-file on a friend or client. You are all wonderful instructors, and I have a great appreciation for your time put into all these... read more
I liked the course, I just thought that in the disinfection classes I could go deeper, the rest I really loved, it was a good experience, now I can use my drills bits in the best way possible Yes, I learned how I can use the drills bits according to the type of skin and cuticle and the rpm Yes, improvements are always welcome, but I'm satisfied, it's the 3rd course I take with... read more
This class has a lot of great information.. I really like the way you explain everything in detail. I have learned a lot about the electric file, and what bits you need to use. Maybe putting longer words like formaldehyde on screen. Also would be nice if you could put name of bits on screen.
E-file 101
The whole course gave me so much more knowledge . I only knew a few steps using my efile. Learning about all the bits have helped me so much I now am using bits that I wasn't using before. Very much so I will definitely take other courses. Yes definitely I was scared to use the green and blue carbits. Now I definitely use them for my removals. Using the forward and reverse mode... read more

It was easier to follow along met more than my expectation yes i have learned that take me time not to rush through any process listen watch very closely and take notes when the teachers give you pointers on your work there is nothing i can say It's already pretty great hobby.nailz
I liked that the course was self paced The course met pretty much all of my expectations I learned that the shape of the bits matter Take your time, it won’t be perfect right away paola.aleumdan
I liked how all the videos were detailed and I did not finish a video with more questions Yes Yes I learned the best speeds for each step of the process and which bits are best for each step Don’t give up and stay focused @shannails_llc
I really liked this course for a lot of things. The thing that I liked the most was that t was broken up into sections so the information was easier to retain; a lot of the courses don't break things into sections and it makes it harder to retain the information. The defiantly met my expectations, I learned a lot that I didn't know about e files and tips and techniques. I... read more
i enjoyed how thorough each course was explained. it helped a lot with understanding yes i have learned the different types of bits used for a drill that i didn’t know existed before. i believe the little tips and tricks given throughout the videos were helpful new pieces of information i enjoyed learning. pay attention to the details j.nicole_cosmo
I liked the bite-size lessons and the super helpful hands-on practice. I feel a lot more comfortable and knowledgeable with my E-File now! I also liked that basic cuticle care with the e-file was covered! The course exceeded my expectations! I'm so excited to take the other 2 classes I signed up for! I am a lot more confident with my E-file now! I learned the right speed for product... read more
I’ve learned which bits to use for cuticule work or filing off products, along with the speed of the e-file.

The videos were excellent! The hands on exercises were great! They guided you to the specific tasks and the correct way to do it! yes and more! Many things. The use of the silicone tip for pushing up the cuticle was new as well as the clock analogy! Watch the videos several times. I picked something different each time.

I loved everything, the videos have all of the information we need and the instructions are very clear.
I loved learning from this course about various types of manicure on natural nails. I learned the anatomy of the nail and proper terminology that nail technicians use. I feel confident using implements and giving after-care advise to clients.

Yes videos were so helpful i already have a degree on pedicure and im doing pedicures for 3 years now but those lessons taught me a better way ! thnx ! I think everything was explained well ! Thank you so much those lessons were so helpful ! you helped me become so much better :)
I enjoyed this course, I liked the cuticle work sanitization and learning how tI remove cracks from a heel
I loved this course so much. The detail and timely teacher assistance was so helpful. I can not believe how much I've learnt and I am pleased I was able to execute what learnt and put the theory into practise.
Thank you so much.
Seda
Thank you so much.
Seda
I enjoyed the detailed videos by the professional nail techs. Here in America we can go to school only to find out our teacher is a hair stylist who has no experience with nails. I liked the wide range of topics that are covered.
I really did like everything! I was surprised at how much I learned! It was nice to keep being able to review units over and over again. The Pedicure 101 class was a great overview of all the basics for a great Pedi. The tasks were fun, original and helpful. The feedback from my Teacher was quick, apt and supportive. I learned many new things! I could list many, such as using the... read more
really comprehensive, easy to follow instructions. Thank you. I'm enjoying this course immensely. 😄
This is a great course. I have been doing pedicures for 20 years and I learned how to properly take care of all of the calluses. Thank you so much for all the great information. I am looking forward to taking more courses!
Yes Yes, I have been doing pedicures for 20 years. I have never treated cracked heels like this. I usually use a callous remover, then again their next visit and so on. It's nice to know I can help sooner! So far no I am liking the format of this class. It is easy to follow and understand. Thank you!
I thought the course was very educational, and I'm looking forward to the pedicure pro course :)
This lesson was very informative. In my area, the nail techs do not take as much care with sanitizing and disinfection as is shown here. The focus is more on getting everything done fast, while giving the illusion of full service (fancy chairs, scrubs and creams, hot stones, etc). I feel that this was a good introductory lesson, and preview for the full course, which I will look... read more

However I did like this class, it did have a lot of helpful information and it does teach what it promises and you do learn how to be a professional. :) Definitely. I learned how to use an electric drill to do pedicure work and I found that the electric drill does a better job of cleaning the cuticle than manually done, its a lot quicker and it saves time and tension on your wrists.... read more

#Polygel
Secrets of Sculpting with Polygel
I enjoyed so much this course. I never used polygel before so was very interesting. Yes, but just because was the first time trying polygel and the pink and white nails. I love so much learning new things and these courses are amazing.
Yes, very much This course was actually a bit easier for me, sometimes having to go back and a second review of the modules was very helpful. Overall, it went well. Everything is well presented and easy to understand .
I did enjoy the course and wish I had more practises to hand in. Funny but I enjoy the repetition of the tasks. It would be great to have the dual forms in the same course as while I was doing the sculpting I really wanted to finesse all aspects of poly gel. I do need more work with almond shaping as I was not catching on how to create a good c curve and still have side walls to create... read more
Yes the course was thorough throughout and I was able to revisit lessons over and over plus able to work at my own pace. Yes. It would be useful in the training videos to show the finished look from all angles. I did struggle with the pink and white practice and had to attempt this practice several times. Overall it paid off as the more times I did it the better I got. Thanks Kisa... read more
Yes :blush: many tips and tricks to cut the forms. Which will help me with gel and acrylic.
Good videos, short with good information. The only difficult thing for me was to do my right hand. But with challenge, you get better.

I did learn a lot from this course!Little tips and tricks and explanations what to do when certain things happen helps understand material and techniques better.Thank you for new knowledge! Yes-time!It still takes long time to do correct material placement especialy around cuticle area but obviously I need more practice.Other than that no struggles.
I loved this course, with many tips. A clarification of the explanations in the videos, everything is well done and easy to understand. I recommend without hesitation I learned a lot. I had no difficulty attending classes. Everything is well explained and if we do not understand some we can ask questions or read the questions of other people. It's a class really well done I think to... read more
Becuse of This nails pro academy ,Even though I just started working for couple days at nail salon, I can beat with other nails tech, who already got 10 + year experiences:)
Yes, more than expected:) Not at all. The course is so easy to follow and help me to become a better and professional nail technician:)
I enjoy the course very much! I’m looking forward to take more classes later on. I was having struggles with the forms, but it gets easier and easier. Now I have to practice so it gets perfect:)

#dualforms
Dual forms
It wasn't difficult. Very useful. Especially the placing of the dual form on the nail that I couldn't figure out before I took these courses.
Yes, a little bit. Seem to be regular acrylic is easier than this technique, especially under nails application. I also think that would be easier if using tip to avoid filling under nails. I think learning every new techniques is great. That's how we can up to date our nails career education.
It was difficult just because I did not have the right dual forms, my dual forms can only be used with clear polygel, and I can’t take new one in time for the end of this training
The more difficult was for me the pink and white application, but I think that with the practice I’ll be able to achieve great results :) It was very useful. Last year I attempt a class in Milan, but I wasn’t satisfied at all. I really like how Anastasia explains the technique and I really love managing when and where take the online classes. The only advice I’d love to share with you... read more
no, not really - naturally it takes some practice to learn a new technique. But finding time in the busy everyday life is challenging :-)
Very usefull. I belive I might use the technique when doing my own nails (not french) but on clients I still think it is faster with usual forms, and also I like that the underside cures dry and smooth. Looking forward to taking another class with... read more

Yes not to have bubbles. And doing it in bitten nails. Learning a new method of modeling nails. If we get a good hold of the dual forms, it could be easy to work with even if we try using it with acrylic.
The pink and white was and is challenging. I plan to use the additional time to watch and work along with you over and over. It was very helpful. I like the dual forms, However, I have decided to perfect sculpting instead. I may use dual forms for short nails. However, I might have to use them until My time and skill are better. Acrylic is so much easier because I have done it for so... read more

Yes I loved it Getting some of the products You describe everything clearly so I knew exactly what to do
Yes, lots of fun and unique designs I dont have some materials to work with. The biggest struggle was not having green colour gels Great course with great designs and techniques by great nail artists. I learned new techniques. Totally worth it
Yes, very much Yes. I did not have everything that I needed like acrylic, spider gel and doing fine lines. I recommend this course but I would have wanted a list of products that I needed. I've learned a lot
Yes, I have, I've had to buy more nail art supplies (not complaining at all as it combined two of my favourite things to do - shopping and nails!!) throughout the duration of this course and actually gain knowledge on how to use each item that I purchased. My nail art offerings for my clients will be so varied now after completing this course! Just the waiting for supplies, I would... read more
Thank you for the training . I really liked it and have learned new techniques and discovered new products. Also during the course I have assembled a nice portfolio of nail art, so now I can show everybody what I am able to do. Very happy with that.
I love this course I learned a lot and enjoyed the videos beautiful experience!
Thank you for yet another good class. I found the tips with use of basecoat and primer very helpfull.
Looking forward to my next class
Looking forward to my next class
Thank you for yet another good class. I learned some new techniques, that I will definately bring with me. The tip about using an acidfree primer to seal the edges are solving some of the problems I have experienced before with ex. foil. just the usual time-problems ;-) that cannot be blamed on you. It was very nice, that there were plenty of exercises - and few stop lessons.
I did both the bling and the nail art course and absolutely loved it praise to Kisa for her comments and advice thank you love Sjöfn Geirdal

I have learned how to use the color wheel as well how to use the rule of thirds on my nail tips. I have also learned many techniques that were new to me! I enjoyed all of it. Sometimes the videos weren’t entirely in sync with the voice over, but that’s easy enough to figure out. I’m looking forward to my next class! This was awesome! Thank you, Natasha!
Yes, I found this extremely helpful! I now finally understand how to create designs off the top of my head and how to pair multiple mediums together to create something balanced. This is the first course that has properly explained different art rules and how to apply them to nails. I love the rule of thirds and will be utilizing it often! I like everything about it! Just slightly more... read more
I have learnt so many new techniques on this course and it truly helped to have an in depth look at colour theory before launching into designs. The colour theory in this course has helped me in not only this course but other nail art courses on Nails Pro Academy. This was my first time using nail decals, I wasn't sure how to use them before taking this course and now I feel so... read more
I have learned about the use of color and designs I would never think of myself. Really nice to be able to have some new techniques to my disposal. I liked the whole course. Only improving point I can think of is letting the students practice more (more tips per design) .
Yes of course! Now I know better how to combine colors and balance the elements of the design. Everything was explained in details and also the tricks have helped a lot.
I learned a lot of which colors go well together, how to compose all the different elements and how to balance them. I liked that there was alternatives if you don't have something in your collection. For example if you don't have neon dry pigments, you could just use gel polishes or if you don't have water decals, you can use stickers, foils or even stamping.

I have learnt how to create 3D images on nails! It has been so much fun!
I have learned so much! I never thought myself as an artistic person so I really exceeded my expectations. Some videos didn't say we we're going to use watercolor technique until it was too late and I should've start all over so I had problems with blending colors in some missions. Also some of the videos were out of focus for most of the video so I couldn't see what... read more
I have learned that I too can paint realistic pictures on nails (sort of:-)) Also the 3D technique was new to me. I like that this course has made me do nail art which is far beyond my comfort zone. I would never have thought of making these kinds of nail art. I have no suggestions for improving the course. .
Yes sure! How to paint realistic things. No I am satisfied with the course.

#calligraphy
Artistic nail calligraphy
Yes. I learned you need a very steady hand to do caligraphy, persistance is a virtue. Very decorative & satisfying when you get it almost right . Be better with practice
Definitely I did. I had never thought to get into art but I’m so glad I had the opportunity to do so! Thank you for the instructions! I think that I’ll need to improve my speed, but as we all know, that comes with practice
I know I do have to learn a lot ☺️ but after these lessons I know I can do it
Absolutely! I enjoyed every bit of this course and appreciate being given an extension to complete it. I think everything was great. I would love to get more stencils if possible. Great course!
Yes! I don’t do a lot of nail art yet. My clients only want a glitter or sticker so this is nice to show them what else is possible! No, it was super. Good and clear explanation!
Yes, I learned how to sketch on the nail and how to have more controle of my brush No
I have as I've never tried Calligraphy nail art before. I would like for the number fonts to also be provided as a printable.
Yes how to draw letters and how to separate the letter in 4. Every steps are very explained. But Anastasia looks too serious on some videos
Yes definitely. It had helped me how to break up the design and achieve a perfect sketch. It had definitely helped me in the line work. It made hand painted nail art much easier for me and I am more confident in taking challenges. ThNk you so much. No there is nothing. Everything was perfect. If you can arrange more trainings like this, would be appreciated and helpful. Thank you
I learn how to divide a sketch to make it easier to draw
I learn to use a pencil if it helps
I enjoyed learning new things! Everything was great!!!

I enjoyed the classes. I struggled a bit with the swirls. I look forward to trying these techniques on my clients.
I liked it! only thing, is that it's kinda hard to see what he is doing when the camera films from the side and not from above. I struggeled with the swirls on paper.
It's good to learn, I enjoyed the class.! and I need to learn more techniques.
I enjoyed this course it’s always good to learn how others accomplish things I still need practice on fine lines
yes i did enjoy the course , i have struggles in using brushes but it's okay .i want to learn more techniques so i might take other courses after this.:relaxed:

This class was hard and rewarding. Some of the assignments showed me that one step that I have missed, was the key to Design working for me. I now have designs that are beautiful and. after much practice, I should be able to execute quickly'
Yea,I really enjoyed the course and all learning process. For me all of it was very new,so definitely I have learned a lot by now. Gonna use it all on myself or my future clients nails.

I enjoyed these lessons and I will continue to practice as I continue my journey as a nail tech.
yes really enjoyed the course. I would recommend nail tech to take this class.. the swirls was the hardest for me and making the lines very thin..
Doing this class was amazing. I learned more about myself with this. It has helped me understands how to do art on nails better. I still have a long way to go but I have faith in myself that I can do this. Thanks to Max for being so awesome and sharing and teaching.
