What Our Students Have To Say...

There was a lot of information in the course. It really stood out that I thought I knew a lot but didn't. It's important to continue your education in order to be the best about what you are passionate.

This was a really great experience! I learn best through audio and visuals so this was PERFECT for me. This was absolutely a mind opener. I learned so much more and I’m ready to apply this new knowledge. It feels AMAZING and I'm ready for the next step of my career.

It was a ton of fun and the work is very rewarding. I’m looking forward to my new skillset! Thank you for creating this course, It has helped me be a better and safer nail tech for my clients. I am very grateful these courses exist!

Because of this program, I’m better able to grow a business and potentially receive referrals from area Podiatrists for services.

I feel this course has definitely "leveled up" my nail career. Excellent Material!!! Excited to rebrand my nail career with these certifications!

The details and depth of this program are unreal. The study questions and learning activities really helped me retain the information. I enjoyed going through the course and learning all the extra information.

I absolutely 100% recommend the Nailcare Academy classes. Janet is a wealth of information. Her classes are professionally done, are clear & concise and right on target. In addition, her classes are constantly updated and she is always looking for ways to better serve our technicians. Janet always makes herself available for one-on-one conversations to assist in any way possible to support her graduates’ success. Her classes are always my #1 recommendation.

I've seen a lot and learned on my own about "baby boomer" foot/hands conditions. But since we were not allowed to work with specific conditions, I decided to become a medi-pedi specialist. I was doing research online and found Nail Care Academy. I’m definitely more confident now in what I want to do and in how I want to use this new knowledge. I`m not done yet. I have a few more courses to go.

I truly believe I wouldn’t be where I am today without Nailcare Academy, and Janet. I truly believe that she cares about my success just as much as I do. I don’t just see her as my teacher, I truly feel she is family. Thank you Janet for all that you do❤️

Nailcare Academy is more than just a class, but a movement. A community of nail technicians that see the bigger picture when it comes to providing safe pedicures for people that have health concerns. NuFeet would not be what it is today if it wasn't for my start with Nailcare Academy."

LaToya, we are so proud of all you have accomplished. You're a shining star and we know your clients are so grateful to have you.

I used to work in Healthcare. My whole life, I’ve always wanted to do something to help people and take care of them. Nursing was just not as fulfilling as I hoped it would be. Long hours and little pay. Dying to do something creative, I decided to do nails. Never in my life have I ever heard of a “waterless pedicure” or “medical pedicure”, until I discovered Erika with NuFeet. I was shocked and amazed! Once I found out that these classes were being taught, I dived in head first! Best decision I have ever made for my nail career! Nailcare Academy has totally changed the game for me! So glad I found them and I am proud to be The First Safe Salon Certified tech listed in Tennessee! Thanks NCA!
