Nail Technician???
Permalink Closed

Has anyone ever done this?  Did you like it...what were the pros/cons?  What is the salary range?  Also, what sort of things should I look for in a school, how long does it take to learn this?  I would be working in a very upscale salon in Scottsdale, AZ.


TIA!

I don't know much about this.. I do have a friend that used to do it part-time.. But she was also an estitician and hair stylist.. just to pay her bills.


While reading this, the first thing I thought was "no money". I'm sure an up-scale salon would make this a little better though.


Let us know what you find out!

the time depends on your state, but i know around here the nail tech program is only 4 weeks!

the $$ really just depends on how busy you are. it's not a bad length of time, and if the program isn't expensive, i say go for it. you can always do it part time and go from there...

Erin - if you don't mind sharing - what state do you live in?  I've done a little bit of research, and so far it looks like for AZ it would be 6 months!  That seems like way too much time for nails!

i live in pennsylvania where they require 200 hours (closer to 5 weeks, full time) for the nail technician program. it says arizona requires 600 hours.


here is a link for states and their hour requirements for training: http://www.sallybeauty.com/content/licensing/listing.asp
