Train with The Nail Editor Academy

Nail art is my specialty, and I love sharing it. Through The Nail Editor Academy I teach advanced techniques to other nail professionals, at organised industry events, one to one in my Godmanchester studio, and in small online group sessions, alongside workshops for every level. I am multi-certified across several of the leading professional brands, and deliberately tied to none of them, so I teach the techniques and products that genuinely work best rather than one company’s system.

The Christmas Collection

My next online course is all about festive nail art, from delicate winter florals to the playful, sparkly designs everyone asks for in December. Register your interest and you will be the very first to hear when it opens. And while you wait, my Autumn Watercolours workshop, just below, is yours to watch free.

Every design is built to fit comfortably into a standard nail appointment, so they look spectacular without blowing your timings. Learn them once and you can offer them to your own clients all season long.
