Once you’ve reaches this point you have completed all the components required to be able to perform a full set or infill on live models. For you to get your qualification with this beginner course you will need to complete practical hours / sets.
You will need to perform full sets on two live models. Below will be a pdf downloadable file explaining the protocol (assessment protocol) that needs to be followed with your two practical full sets. Please download it and familiarise yourself with the content before arranging your first model to come in. Once you have booked a model please ensure you are following the protocol step by step when performing the set on your model. You will need to take progress pictures of these sets and upload them to this lesson by following the assessment tab below. The following pictures will be required per model to complete your assessment:
- After you have prepped the natural nails.
- After Vogue Extension tip preparation. (picture of the prepared tips before application to the natural nails)
- After primer application on natural nails.
- After product application to natural nails.
- After the tips have been adhered.
- After the tips have been blended.
- After a bridging/float or pour coat has been applied.
- After finish filing.
- Final finished set picture.
These pictures need to be clear, close and in focus. The picture should be of four fingers of one hand. You will only be able to upload one picture per topic so make sure it is a clear one. Take a few pictures so you can choose the best one per topic. Examples of the required good pictures:
Example of a BAD PICTURE:
If the assessor is unable to mark the pictures based on the criteria outlined it the Assessment Protocol due to bad pictures or lack of required pictures, you will be required to perform the sets again, so please take the time to make sure you are collecting all the required pictures and that they are of good quality.
Once the required practical sets are completed and uploaded, your sets will be assessed. Once you’ve passed your assessment you will be awarded an industry recognised qualification in Soft Gel Extensions. If you fail your assessment your assessor will provide you with feedback as to what needs to be improved and offer you another opportunity to redo the assessment by performing another two sets.
Please follow the breakdown below when performing your sets, by following the step by step breakdown below you will be doing everything that is needed to help you pass your assessment.
