Dipping acrylic, also known as SNS uses acrylic powder, resin and activators to build the nail up. The powder is applied using a resin, over tips or natural nails and then a special activator is used to set the application. Clear or coloured powder can be used. The process takes around 45 minutes, needs no harsh filing and creates a natural looking nail enhancement. The process is very simple and lasts for at least two weeks, at this point the client can have them removed with a simple 30 minute soak off or can have the nail infilled with acrylic or gel. This course acts as a great introduction to L&P traditional acrylic nails, or a perfect stand alone course that will enable you to instantly offer this treatment to the paying public.
You will learn how to apply tips, overlays, coloured and clear powders.
This course is accredited by the Beauty Guild and ABT so you will be able to gain trade insurance and begin offering this service to paying clients either in a salon or as a self employed or mobile therapist. You can be qualified at the end of the day!
