Gel Extensions Beauty Therapy Courses - Solo, Virtual & Home Learning
Course options & prices from £99 - £299
All courses are fully insurable in the UK
Nail enhancements are an increasingly popular treatment within the professional beauty industry. The last few years have seen the introduction of UV gel systems which can be used to provide natural looking overlays or enhancements.
UV Gel Extensions are perfect for clients who are looking for a longer lasting nail treatment than a manicure as they can last for as long as three weeks. Clients will need to return to the salon to have these removed or infilled, guaranteeing you repeat bookings.
The GTi Gel Extensions course covers how to complete gel overlays and extensions as well as the maintenance, repair and removal of the treatment in order to provide a full Gel Extensions service.
The course also covers reception and consultation, contra-indications to treatment and aftercare advice. It also includes detailed technique modules which show you how to apply Gel Extensions.
Please note: You can save money by purchasing one of our many training packages.

Preston, April 2024I had a fantastic day completing the Indian Head Massage Course. Our tutor was wonderful! She thoroughly made sure we were all competent in what we were doing and made the day so enjoyable - thankyou! And also may I add that the admin team that helped me with booking the course was so helpful and made everything easy to sort out. I didn't realise there was so much included with the Indian Head Massage - it's a must for everyone! I will definitely be coming back for more courses in the near future.
