Manicuring: 400 Clock Hours
"Manicurists are highly sought after in full-service salons and spas.  Do not think that there are too many nail shops in your area and that you cannot compete with the others. There is always a need for professional nail technicians in many venues.  Nail technology training includes preparation for state licensing, professional spa treatments and nail enhancements, including: acrylics, tips, wraps, gels and nail art. We use and train with professional products in our salon clinic environment.  This will help you hone in on your professional skills and build confidence in becoming a successful manicurist."



2) Train online to do MINX Nails

MINX Nails
Where on earth would you find a completely new and unique product in nail fashion? In sunny California, of course, where the sun, sea and surf surrounds some of the most beautiful women in the world who need to look sensational whether they are waxing a surfboard, attending a movie premiere, or glamming out for Hef’s next bash at the manor.

While it is hard work gliding through each day and night (and after-hours) looking gorgeous with a touch of naughty, Minx is here to lead the way. The golden flash of fingernail as you beckon for the brunch waiter… the sparkling arc as you firmly grasp the last pair of Jimmy Choo’s on sale… the perky glint of silver wrapped around a fresh Pinkberry smoothie… once you’ve been Minxed, your life will never be the same.



3) Work from Home

Well, I need to own or rent a home first! I guess an apartment could do, if I had more space to work with. I would love to be able to have clients over or travel to their homes and fulfill their manicure/pedicure needs for a reasonable price and at their convenience.

Plus, I really want to work from home so that I can eventually stay home with my children and have a more flexible schedule. I think I would be able to market myself in such a positive way that would give me a comparable income with those techs working in high end salons.



 4) Have a Mobile Nail Business

I would also love to have my own mobile business to do nails for people in their own environment, whether it's home, work, or at an event. I think it would be so much fun to do nail parties too with groups of about 3-6 people or so. I just think it will be another way to get more business without working a "9 to 5" at a salon or spa.
