With comprehensive instruction from experienced professionals, access to industry connections, and ongoing career support after graduation, our program gives you everything you need to start your career. Read on to learn more about the many compelling reasons to enroll in Bellus Academy’s Spa Nails program.
Master In-Demand Techniques
In our Spa Nails program, you’ll learn today’s most sought-after skills that go beyond the basics of manicuring. Learn techniques only offered at advanced workshops, such as spa nail protocols, aromatherapy, hot rock, and reflexology for both the hands and feet. These cutting-edge techniques are highly marketable to top spas and salons seeking creative nail technicians. Our award-winning instructors stay up-to-date on the latest trends so you graduate with a skill set that meets industry demand.
Additionally, you’ll earn a recognized certification upon completing one of our Spa Nails programs in Poway or Chula Vista. This certification validates your expertise and opens doors to various career opportunities. While the state requires 400 hours to obtain a manicuring license, our program gives you an additional 200 hours of advanced training to go above and beyond– and help you stand out from your competition!
Whether you aspire to work in top-notch salons or spas, run your own nail business, or even teach others the art of nail art, earning a certification from Bellus Academy puts you on the path to success.
Gain Hands-On Experience
At Bellus Academy, you’ll spend meaningful time practicing your new skills on real clients in our professional on-site salon. Applying your knowledge in a real-world setting helps build confidence and refine your customer service abilities. Our welcoming clinic environment allows you to get comfortable performing services well before entering the field.
In the spa industry, client satisfaction is exceptionally important. A Spa Nail program, such as the one offered by Bellus Academy, equips you with the knowledge and skills needed to provide exceptional services that are sure to ‘wow’ your future clients. As a result, you’ll build lasting relationships with each and every one of them based on trust and satisfaction. Happy clients turn into loyal patrons and act as your best marketing tool– often referring friends and family to your professional services!
Accommodations For All!
At Bellus Academy, we understand everyone has different schedules and constraints. That’s why we offer both day and evening Spa Nails programs in Poway and Chula Vista. Whether you need to work during the day or just prefer night courses, we provide scheduling options to accommodate your lifestyle. Our programs take approximately 6 months to complete, depending on which schedule you choose.
We also believe cost should never get in the way of opportunity. FAFSA financial aid is available to those who qualify, which can significantly reduce out-of-pocket school expenses. In fact, 92% of Bellus Academy students utilize some form of financial aid. (Source: IPEDS Data Collection System)
