At One Stop Beauty School, the nail technology program is designed to provide students with comprehensive education and training in nail care. The program is built around several fundamental principles essential to promoting nail care as a proud and prosperous profession.

​

First and foremost, the program is designed to provide practical exposure to the role of a nail technician. Students are given hands-on experience working with clients and performing various nail care services, including manicures, pedicures, acrylics, and gel polish. This exposure allows students to gain a deeper understanding of the profession and to develop the necessary skills and techniques to succeed in the industry.

​

In addition, the program is designed to advise and encourage students meaningfully. Our instructors are experienced professionals passionate about their work and committed to helping students succeed. They provide individualized attention and support to each student, offering guidance and advice to help them achieve their goals.

​

We also strive to acquaint students with current technical and creative information when available. The beauty industry constantly evolves, and our students must stay current with the latest trends and techniques. Our program includes regular updates on new products and services and workshops and seminars to help students improve their skills and creativity.

​

Of course, our program also fulfills all State Board of Nail Care requirements. We are committed to providing our students with a comprehensive education that meets or exceeds the standards set by the state licensing board.
