Take your nail artistry to the next level with the sparkle and dimension of crystals and embellishments! ✨
In this fun and creative class, you’ll learn easy and effective techniques for securely applying crystals of all sizes, charms, embellishments, water decals, and stickers. We’ll cover how to create beautiful, balanced crystal arrangements and how to plan your placement for both minimalist and maximalist designs.
You’ll also learn how to create crystal placement plans using a take-home crystal placement worksheet, giving you a helpful tool you can use when designing future sets.
Adding crystals and embellishments is an easy way to expand your salon service menu and increase your profits. We’ll discuss how to price embellishment services based on the size, quantity, and complexity of the design, so you can confidently charge for the time and artistry involved.
Whether your clients prefer a subtle touch of sparkle or want their nails completely covered in crystals, this class will give you the skills to create secure, long-lasting, and eye-catching embellishment designs.
