Genre Workshop
Amy Masters
Genre is a simple and easy but incredibly effective nail enhancement technique, allowing you to offer the lowest cost per service with the most profits... Keeping you SUCCESSFUL!
Easily filed for infills/re-balancing or soak off for removal, the focus is on saving the integrity of the natural nail. This system bypasses the issues of any harsh smells, monomers, stinky resins, primers, ratios, or dipping. Many nail techs have reported that prior issues with allergies have been resolved using this technique describing this as a healthier option as well. Best of all, it is incredibly rare to see any lifting at all when clients return after 4+ weeks!
Genre is the name I gave to this nail enhancement technique as it incorporates elements of a variety of nail enhancing products to create the most durable nail enhancement. It is a layering technique using 100% gel polish and fine acrylic powder, which can confidently be used with no damage to the natural nail.
Genre can be used on the natural nail as an overlay, with tips, and is incredibly strong as sculpted extensions as well. Did I mention no finish filing on fills, reducing the dust and saving time?
It"s a WIN WIN and the latest technique in the future of nail enhancing.
This workshop will cover in detail: hand and e-file prep, Genre technique on natural nails, tips, and customizing forms for beautiful sculpting, to pretty polish finish. Including Genre re-balance, fill, maintenance, troubleshooting, how to transition your client, and market your best work! That's not all....there is much more... once completed, you will receive a wall-worthy certificate and be added to a private group with other advanced techs.
This class will share the basics and include full access to online course for replay and ongoing support.
Class includes $75
