Salon Nail Shapes
and Sculpting
Course
If you want to create flawless salon nail shapes that stand out from your competitors and allow you to charge premium prices, this course is for you.
The Salon Nail Shapes & Sculpting Course is designed for qualified nail technicians who want to take their skills beyond basic extensions and master the art of sculpting. Taught by Celebrity Nail Artist and Brillbird Educator Sarah Evans, this course focuses on one of the most overlooked but essential skills in nail education – correctly fitting and tailoring forms to suit every individual client's natural nail anatomy.
Most technicians are taught to fit forms in one standard way, but every client has a different nail plate, sidewalls, and hyponychium. During this course, you'll learn how to analyse each nail, customise forms correctly, and create strong, balanced structures regardless of the client's natural nail shape.
You will learn how to tailor forms for different hyponychium types, create perfect C-curves, achieve crisp smile lines, and correctly position forms for Square, Tapered Square, Almond, and Stiletto nails. These advanced techniques will dramatically improve your finished results, reduce filing time, and help you create stronger, longer-lasting enhancements.
By the end of the course, you'll have the confidence to sculpt beautiful salon-quality nails consistently while offering premium services that can significantly increase your earning potential.
