INFORMATION ABOUT THE COURSE:

In this class, I will help you master short nail shapes, which can be challenging due to the variety in customers' finger shapes, and because they are sometimes not straight and the c-curve is twisted. You will learn how to select the most suitable shape and adapt it to different hands to achieve a pleasing result. We will cover various shapes, from square to short almond, and I will guide you in achieving symmetry while filing.

Additionally, I will introduce a no-filing technique to help you build nails quickly, with the goal of sculpting thin yet durable nails. I will explain the products you need to use, focusing mainly on BIAB (Builder in a Bottle), soak-off products, and thin viscosity gels.
