About the Course
The PolyGEL Course teaches you this popular hybrid nail extension technique that combines the best qualities of acrylic and gel. In 2 classes, you will learn to apply PolyGEL with brush and slip solution, shape extensions, and create a durable, lightweight result that clients love.
PolyGEL is easy to work with, odourless, and highly versatile, making it a valuable addition to any nail technician's service menu.
Prerequisite: Basic nail experience required.
Classes are small groups (max. 4 people) so we guarantee you personalised and focused attention from the teacher that you won't receive in big group classes in other schools.
Because of the amount of international students our classes are in English with translation to Dutch or Spanish.
