Hard Gel Starter Course with Product Kit | ONLINE

What is the Hard Gel Starter Course?

 

In this course you will learn the art of creating and maintaining stunning and durable sculptured gel nails with Fuzion hard gels. Hard gel is a thicker gel that cannot be soaked off. It is ideal for creating beautiful long enhancements tailored to each individual. Clients would pick this service if they wanted length added to their natural nails, and needed a strong durable enhancement. Sculpting with forms eliminates the need for glue on tips creating a longer lasting service.

 

What is the Course format?

 

The Hard Gel Starter Course is 100% online, with instruction via pre-recorded video modules. You will be paired with a Mentor to review your assessments and help troubleshoot if needed. 

Looking for an in-person training? We have Mentors in select cities across Canada. You may contact them directly to inquire about taking the Hard Gel Starter Course with them in person. For a list of Mentors and their locations, click here.

 

What is the duration?

 

You can complete the course at your own pace. It can be completed in as little as 30 days, but you will have unlimited access to the course if you need longer. Access to a Mentor is for 90 days, beginning when you enrol.
