What We Offer

We offer ABT-accredited, CPD-approved nail courses that are meticulously designed to provide aspiring professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in this dynamic and creative field.

Why Niche Studio & Training?

At Niche Studio & Training, we are passionate about what we do and our industry. We believe in proper education and ensuring we look after our client's nail health.

For us, it's not just nails; it isn't about getting your client in and out and onto the next one. It's understanding nail health and anatomy and knowing what to look for. It's knowing how to use the products and tools correctly so that your clients leave with better nail condition than when they first came to you.

There are a lot of courses out there, but our courses are different from every other course. Our courses contain quality content that you won't find in courses you see online.

I first trained in 2018, and my training could have improved. I only realised it a couple of years after researching and discovering the correct ways of doing certain things. This fuelled me to become a trainer and started that passion for good quality training to become available and affordable.

I've been in the industry for five years, and there's still plenty to learn. I never stop learning, and I never stop pushing myself to do better and be better.

Join us today and take the first step towards a fulfilling and prosperous career in nail care.

Our Courses

At Niche Studio & Training, we take pride in creating an intimate and relaxed learning environment. We are committed to nail health and utilise top-quality products to ensure our graduates can deliver exceptional service and care to their clients.

Our courses provide a balanced combination of comprehensive theoretical learning and practical hands-on experience in a supportive environment. We also offer online assistance to our graduates as they embark on their journey towards building a successful career in nail care.

Continuous Learning

I've offered one-to-one workshops over the last few years, and the learning doesn't just stop once you've completed a course with me.

You'll be given full access to a private Facebook group to help you start your nail journey, where there will be other technicians learning and asking all the questions you have likely thought about, as well as help, advice, discount codes, and tutorials. It's important to me that you have the support and guidance to get the best out of our courses.

Our Commitment

We are committed to providing high-quality, affordable training and services that emphasise proper education and prioritise our clients' nail health.
