I am currently doing the ultimate nail…

I am currently doing the ultimate nail technician course which consists of 11 courses. I have completed 5 so far and I must say these courses far exceeded my expectations.
The courses cover all types of anatomy, videos, workbooks and much much more.
All courses are suitable for insurance purposes. I have just taken out insurance with ABT.
My confidence is growing daily and I’m very quickly starting to master my techniques.
You can submit work by using a training hand, your own nails or models. So far I have done a mixture. Marking is done in a very timely manner.
The thing I love the most is the Facebook group where we can all share best practices, mistakes and you soon feel your not alone.
My friends have noticed how much I have improved to a point now that they are desperate to have theirs done.
I highly recommend next step beauty. However, be warned you’ll soon be addicted.
Good look with your new course which ever one you choose.

Great format, quality training

So far I’ve completed the manicure and gel polish courses. I’m now working through UV gel extensions and E File and plan to do more. I really like the format; clear, comprehensive instructions from Victoria. So happy to have found these online courses as I’m not able to attend in person. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

I have so far completed 4 courses with NSB, and have found them so informative. When I have encountered a problem, Victoria was very supportive. Would definitely recommend! *****

Next Step Beauty Courses are EXCELLENT…

Next Step Beauty Courses are EXCELLENT *****

I firstly signed up for 2 courses through Next Step Beauty. I enjoyed the online learning and being able to do the practical elements in my own time in my own salon.
Victoria is always available for help and support throughout these courses and the work books are always available for you to refer back to if needed.
I enjoyed both of my courses, so much so I signed up for another 4.
There is also social media group pages with other students to help you with any questions/help/advise you may need, extremely friendly group.
I much prefer this kind of training to “in person” live training as it fits around my lifestyle and the fact that I work alone in my salon and have very little spare time to travel to live trainings.
I highly recommend you booking any of the Next Step Training Courses if you’d like to further your skills & services.

I 100% Recommend

I am currently doing the full nail tech course from home, I’ve found all the information very helpful , the video tutorials are extremely helpful and very clear …I always refer back to them when I need a little reminder . There is no pressure to finish a course within a certain time , being a stay at home mum this makes me achieve my goals at my own pace without added pressure. If your looking into learning a new skill within the beauty industry I 100% recommend Next Step Beauty .

Brilliant

I was losing my hopes of becoming nails technician as was hard until I got to this course. The course gave me lots of knowledge which I always thought I don’t need to do to do nails which I was mistaken. Everything is explained and showed in really amazing way and I’m happy that I founded this place, for sure I will do more course and I would recommend for everyone.

Amazing

This is by far the best each course has a set of modules and units that you can do at your own pace allowing you to work around your other commitments and the tutorial videos go into so much detail and explains everything along with the E books I did the manicure course it was an absolute joy to do I will most certainly be booking another course and you get unlimited access to the portal where all work is submitted and you get full tutor support

Fab staff!

For a long while I've been wanting to try an online course but wasn't sure if I could gain enough knowledge to progress into a new job role, but enrolling on a nail tech course with the next step beauty was the best thing I've done, the staff are so friendly, very quick to contact you if you require any assistance with anything!

Great course!

I’ve completed both the manicure and pedicure course with nextstep beauty and thought they were great!
The course was very in depth and informative, covering all aspects of the treatment in detail. I found the format of the course easy to follow with the virtual videos and was able to make lots of notes whilst listening. Everything you need to pass the end of module mini exam is in the virtual video so make sure you listen! :)

I also found the customer service really good, I got print replies from the company which were very helpful.

Overall, I would recommend nextstep beauty for their courses without a doubt!

Literally a waste of time

I had such high hopes for this course but I haven't even got started on Eyelash Enhancement because I've had several modules based on the human anatomy and physiology! Its all unnecessary filler and very boring. There is absolutely no need for me to know half the modules I have to learn in order to advance. Not only are they pointless but many of the answers are to some of the modules are a matter of a opinion. Having some random woman telling me how to run my business and what the best practice is in a salon it tedious and NOT what I paid for. Interestingly their website was recommended to me and the person who recommended it doesn't remember jumping through this many hoops to learn how to wax and tint eyebrows

Gel course

Loved doing this course
Very worthwhile
Sending in photographic evidence was easily done- as I’m no computer whizz
Completing this through your own time and at home was a godsend
Would definitely recommend

Make Next Step your next step in education

I have done the Complete Nail Tech course and the Pedicure course as well as Efile courses all through Next Step. I really recommend Next Step as a training provider, after completing the courses I have gone on to open my own mobile nail salon which is growing really well! Next Step are very responsive when help is needed and the course material and videos contains everything you need to know to become the next Great Nail Tech 💅

Next Step Beauty courses

After having completed a few courses through Next Step Beauty I decided to sign up for the Massage Course. The sign up process is easy to do with plenty of information regarding each course. The website is easy to navigate with plenty of support on hand should you require it. The selection of courses available is varied and well thought out. I would definitely recommend next step beauty.
