Semi-permanent eyeliner course

Semi-permanent eyeliner highlights different features of the eyes. It involves the artist inserting semi-permanent pigment to create various looks. Alongside highlighting different features of the eyes, it draws attention to the eyes and even changes the eye’s shape.

Eyelash extensions, nails and threading courses

Eyelash extensions course

Eyelash extensions are individually applied fibres of either faux mink or silk that are attached to each of your client's natural lashes to give them longer, thicker and fuller lashes that last over a month.

They can give a very natural or glamorous effect depending on your client's preference and the suitability of their natural lashes.

Nail extensions course

Nail extensions are artificial nails that are added to a client's natural nail to make it appear longer. Once the extension is securely attached and shaped, an overlay is applied. The most popular overlays are acrylic and gel. The length and shape are the client's choice. Maintenance is fortnightly. There is no damage to the natural nails if applied and removed correctly by a professional.

Gel polish course

Gel nail polish is a long-lasting, instant dry nail finish that can be applied over natural nails or extensions. The polish is usually a UV/LED product that is dried under a UV/LED lamp. It is a popular treatment. Maintenance is fortnightly and there will be no damage to the natural nail if the product is applied and removed correctly by a qualified professional.

Threading course

Threading is a method of hair removal originating from Asia. It is used predominately to shape eyebrows and remove unwanted facial hair.

It provides a precise, defined eyebrow shape and gentle removal of facial hair using thread.

There are a few different techniques for threading. These include the hand method, mouth method and neck method.
