INTERNATIONAL NAIL ART COMPETITOR

By the time Julie was a student in nail school, her work was already published in NAILS Magazine. She competed in the first ever NAILS Next Top Nail Artist (& most recently placed 2nd in the ALL STAR comp) and landed a spot on the reality TV show “Nail’d It!” while working as a nail artist in NYC. Her work has been featured on the cover of NAILS Magazine, NYFW, & more.

 

From there she moved to LA to recruit, train and manage teams of mobile nail professionals with GlamSquad until she worked managing the education department of international nail brand, ORLY. With a passion for teaching, she took her expertise of curriculum building & founded NailKnowHow with a single course on her specialty, hand-painted nail art. It was a success. Now Julie hopes to elevate the standards of nail education with NailKnowHow.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: How long will I have access to the course?
A: Once you purchase the course, you have unlimited access to it and all the bonuses. There's no rush. Start it immediately or a year from now, it is completely self-paced!

Q: What do I need to get started?
A: You'll see a list of specific supplies I recommend when you open up the course but you can truly get started with just a bottle of polish and a cheap set of nail art brushes. To get the most out of it, you'll need a red, yellow, blue, black and white polish, gel or water-based acrylic craft paint. (We talk about which medium will work best for you in the course, I prefer gel paints.) Six nail art brushes - a striper, long detailer, short detailer, a tapered brush, flat brush and a dotting tool. You'll also need acetone, rubbing alcohol & some lint free wipes along with a cuticle stick or silicone clean up tools if you happen to have them.

Q: What if I'm struggling with a technique?
A: The course include an interactive troubleshooting experience. This innovative tool helps you figure out what you did wrong (& what you did right) by giving you dozens of photos to compare your work to. When that's not enough, I'm just an email away to give you personalized feedback!

Q: I want to gift this to someone, how do I do that?
A: Not a problem! Feel free to purchase the course and just shoot me a message at julie@nailknowhow.com with the email of the person you're gifting it to & I'll take care of setting up their account whenever you'd like them to get it!

Q: Do I need to be a licensed professional to take the course?
A: Nope! As long as you're not working on clients, you do not need a license to do nail art. So keep on creating those press-ons and making killer nail art content for your socials!

Q: Why does enrollment close periodically?
A: We close enrollment periodically in order to support our current students. This is a very hands-on course, meaning you will need to practice along side the lessons to see improvement. During these practice lessons, we give all students the opportunity to contact Julie if they have any questions the interactive feedback system does not answer for them or if they just need a little extra support. To ensure each students can receive quality support, we have to limit the amount of students we enroll each month.
