Questions, answered
When will I be charged?
Your kit is charged when you enrol. The course fee is charged separately on your first day of class, in line with Québec consumer protection rules. You'll see both amounts under "Reserve Your Spot" before you check out.
Do I need any experience?
No. Level 1 is designed for complete beginners with no formal experience.
What's included in my enrolment?
Four in-person classes with instructor-led demonstrations and hands-on practice, your hands-on certification exam, and a professional kit to keep — the Home Tech Kit is included, or you can upgrade to the Professional or Set Me Up Kit.
Which kit should I choose?
Home Tech Kit: everything for your coursework — ideal if you'll mostly work on yourself, friends and family.
Professional Kit: full-size products and a pro lamp and e-file for building a real working collection.
Set Me Up Kit: a complete station, including a dust collector, so you can take clients full-time from day one.
How do I get certified?
At the end of the course you submit three complete sets — gel polish, overlay and hard gel extensions — with full documentation of your process from prep to final result.
What if I need to cancel or change dates?
Please see our Course Terms & Refund Policy, or contact us and we'll help.
