What You Can Learn in School

Are you wondering what kind of education you will get in the process of becoming a licensed manicurist? A manicurist learns all about nails, hands, and feet. Here are just a few things you can learn from a manicuring program at a beauty school:

• • • Basic Manicure. This may sound obvious, but there’s a lot that goes into the process of a manicure. The type of nail polish to use, how to clean your tools for each guest, and proper nail trimming to make sure the shape of the nail is appropriate for each guest are all parts of a manicure that need to be learned before getting your license.
    • Hand and Foot Massages. While not everyone gets a massage when they go in for a manicure, some might want one to get the full, relaxing experience. You can expect to learn proper techniques for both hand and foot massages to best relax and care for your clients.
    • Proper Nail Care. Becoming a nail technician isn’t all about making your clients’ nails look pretty. It’s also important to be able to recognize certain diseases and infections and how to avoid them so you can keep your tools sanitary and safe for other guests.
    • Chemistry of Cosmetics. As a manicurist, you’ll be using many different types of polish, creams, and lotions on customer’s hands and feet. It’s important to know what each ingredient is in each product and what they do so you can provide top quality services that last.
    • Artificial Nail Application. There are so many different types of artificial nails that a manicurist has to learn how to apply, such as gel nails, acrylic nails, or sculptured nails.
    • Salon Best Practices. While it’s important to know how to help others achieve gorgeous nails, it’s also important to know how to best work with customers. Part of a manicurist’s curriculum is to learn the laws salons have to follow and how to provide the best service.
