Custom Shaping Workshop

Custom Shaping Workshop

What is covered in the course?

Medium to XL length sculpted nails, deep C -curves, impeccable finish filing & proper structures to die for!

This workshop should equip you with detailed skills in determining how to correctly identify the client’s natural shape and apex and then tailor the form’s free edge to fit correctly (no gaps, pressure release points, “mirroring the free edge”), as well as the correct angle tilt of the form, to create the desired custom shape.

  1. Sculpture of Russian Almond, coffin, almond & stiletto nails.
  2. Focus on the correct hand file placement, pressure, grit and finishing techniques.
  3. Getting into the habit of viewing the nail in its entirety:
    • Top: Cuticle, lengths, and side walls- no bowing
    • Font (barrel): C-Curve, even thickness, concave and convex
    • Sides: Lower arches, Upper arch, Apex
You are required to bring along all products that you use to sculpt nails with. NO Model needed as we will work on our own hands.
