Course Introduction
Manicures involve particular attention to natural nail care, plus a luxurious hand and arm massage and nail painting techniques. Pedicures are designed to pamper tired, aching feet, soften hard skin and to generally make the feet more attractive. This course will allow you offer these two treatments to a highly professional standard.
This is an excellent opportunity to begin your beauty therapy career or for hairdressers wishing to expand their services.
On successful completion of the course you will be awarded with a qualification that is recognised in industry and will enable you to gain insurance.
