Our beauty courses are always really popular, so we’re excited for the first time to be offering a standalone course in nail therapy. Beauty Nails kicked off this week, led by Beauty Therapist and experienced college lecturer, Michelle Kurkowski-Gibson.

The course will teach students all about manicures (including luxury nail treatments), using paraffin wax, warm oil, heated mitts and gel polish, with week one focused on learning the structure of the nails, bones of the hand, and basic manicure and filing.

The course will also aim to improve participants’ life skills and wellbeing, by building on attendance, confidence, group communication and positive daily routines.

Following completion of the course, students will gain an ABT (Associated Beauty Therapist) through ProQual in Nails, with the possibility of progressing onto other beauty course options.

All materials are provided, but models may be required for student assessments.
