What qualifications are required to work in the Nail Industry?

Most salons and nail bars recognise a manicure qualification or NVQ Level 2 as a minimum qualification. To further your success you could obtain qualification in acrylics, gels and fibre glass techniques.

How can I go about getting my qualification?

One option is to join a salon or Spa as an apprentice where training is in-house and via a day-release agreement. These roles are not often advertised national due to the costs that the salons occur and demand in these types of roles. We would advise you to view the local papers and distribute a letter introducing yourself to the salons in your area. Some may be open to you working as a receptionist and over-seeing some treatments whilst gaining your qualification.

A second option would be to attend college to obtain your qualification. Hairandbeautyjobs.com is looking to introduce a course search engine for under qualified stylist/therapist/technicians to find colleges in your area. In the meantime we would recommend you go onto any of the main search engines or look in industry magazines.
