Basic Manicure and E-File

Our nail courses will help you learn safe E-file use, perfect prep, and gel application for clean, long-lasting, professional manicure results.

This course in Gorey, County Wexford – walks you through every essential step of a clean, polished manicure, with a focus on proper E-file handling so you can work confidently and safely on both yourself and clients. You’ll learn how to prep the natural nail correctly — removing shine, shaping, and cleaning the cuticle area without causing damage — before moving into gel application techniques that deliver smooth, even, long-lasting results every time.

Do you feel unsure when using an E-file? Are you worried about damaging the natural nail or not achieving a clean finish? Maybe your prep doesn’t last, gel lifts too quickly, or you’re still not confident working around the cuticle. This course is designed for beginners and newly qualified nail technicians who want to build real confidence from day one.
