Manicure & Pedicure Course
Manicure and Pedicure Course in Leeds at Beauty-licious Academy is a beginner-friendly, ABT accredited training course designed to teach you how to carry out professional nail treatments that enhance both the appearance and health of the hands and feet.
This course is perfect for those starting a career in the beauty industry or looking to add essential nail services to their treatment menu.
A manicure focuses on improving the condition of the hands and nails. The treatment includes soaking the hands to soften the skin, shaping the nails, cuticle work, exfoliation, and a relaxing hand massage, followed by the application of nail polish.
A pedicure follows a similar process for the feet. This includes soaking to soften the skin, trimming and shaping the nails, reducing hard skin and calluses, exfoliation, and a foot massage, finishing with nail polish application.
These treatments are highly popular within the beauty industry, offering both aesthetic results and a relaxing client experience, making them ideal for building a loyal client base.
Please note: this course covers the application of standard nail polish only.
To offer a long-lasting, high-shine finish, we recommend completing our Gel Polish Course, which allows you to provide gel polish treatments alongside your manicure and pedicure services.
