10/10 recommend!

Hands down one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career. This cosmetic tattooing course gave me a solid foundation, deep understanding of best practices, and the confidence to trust my skills. The focus on safety, hygiene, and technique was amazing, and nothing felt rushed or overlooked. I walked away feeling empowered, prepared, and excited to grow in the industry. Could not recommend this course more.

If you dream it, you can do it!

As a mum with two younger teenage girls, I have absolute loved the experience of learning how to do all the different nail techniques. It has been such a wonderful experience learning at my own pace in amongst such a hectic mum life. I look forward to completing all my assessments and finishing the course. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to learn how to do salon quality nails within my own home.

Lash extensions course

I’m currently taking an eyelash extension course, and one of the best things about this school is that it’s completely online, allowing me to study at my own pace. Whenever I submit a test, I receive feedback within 24 hours, with detailed comments on what I did well and what I can improve.

Through the student website, I can watch video demonstrations for each assignment, learn from the instructor’s examples, and then work through the tasks on my own. It’s a very self-directed learning style, which I really enjoy.

I would highly recommend this course to anyone who prefers to study independently, without pressure or being influenced by others, and who wants to focus quietly on their own progress.

I also enrolled in the course with the starter kit included, and it has been extremely helpful as I plan to grow my beauty business in the future.

I couldn’t have asked for a better nail…

I couldn’t have asked for a better nail technician school to learn from. The level of support, knowledge, and genuine care for students truly stands out. What made the biggest difference for me was the video feedback — it was world-class. Being able to see detailed demonstrations along with personalised critiques helped me improve my technique so much faster than I expected. Every piece of feedback was clear, constructive, and incredibly encouraging. I always felt supported, guided, and inspired to keep getting better. I’m so grateful for the skills and confidence I gained through this training.

Thankyou National Institute of Beauty.

Thankyou National Institute of Beauty.
I looked at a few different facials course companies , and ended up choosing this company.
The App was easy to use and forms that my models filled in was adequate information.
Also the price of this course was affordable and with a payment plan and an extra bonus the Business course.
Great feed back from accessors.
Thankyou so much
