The gel nail extension course is an ideal choice for beginners wanting to become fully qualified Gel Nail Technicians.
Gel nails are easier to master than powder and liquid acrylic, as it does not set until cured with a UV or LED lamp, allowing you more time to work with and sculpt the product. Gel is so versatile that it can also be used to strengthen the natural nail when used without extension tips as an overlay.
