12 Week Brillbird Acrylic Conversion
Course
Already qualified in Hard Gel but want to expand your services? Or currently using acrylic but feel like you're not getting the best results possible?
Our 12 Week Acrylic Conversion Course is designed specifically for qualified nail technicians who want to master the Brillbird Acrylic System, improve their technique, and create stronger, cleaner, more profitable acrylic enhancements.
Taught by Celebrity Nail Artist and Brillbird Educator Sarah Evans, this course goes far beyond basic acrylic application. You'll learn how to get the very best from Brillbird products while refining your structure, smile lines, product control, shaping, and overall finish.
Many technicians struggle with lifting, inconsistent retention, bulky enhancements, poor smile lines, or simply feel their work isn't reaching the standard they know they're capable of. This course is designed to solve those problems through hands-on training, continuous feedback, and ongoing support.
By the end of the course, you'll not only feel confident working with acrylic, you'll understand how to create stronger, more consistent enhancements that your clients will love and happily return for.
