Those attending having recently undertaken shaving of areas to be worked on or who are unwilling to receive treatment (but not medically exempt), will not be able to participate resulting in loss of course fee. Male students must provide a suitable female model to practice upon due to the physical nature of these treatments.

Manicure & Pedicure, Gel Polish & Builder Gel in a Bottle Courses
