BOARD DOES NOT ALLOW HUMAN MODELS DURING EXAMINATIONS.
CAN I USE THIS HAND DURING PRACTICAL TEST TAKING? |
YES! Most State
Board examiners allow Nail Trainers during exams
so please feel free to impress your judges! (But
always check with your instructor first.) |

CAN I MOVE THE ARM ANYWHERE AROUND ON MY TABLETOP
EASILY?
 |
<-- YES! The unique
design of the flexible arm and adjustable table clamp allows you to position
it anywhere on the table. The built-in clamp attaches
and adjusts to fit most standard table tops.
|
MOST DO NOT COME WITH AN ARM OR
A DESK CLAMP. |
DO THE NAIL TRAINER NAILS ADJUST FOR VARIED NAIL
BED DEPTHS INTO THE FINGERS?
 |
<-- YES! The
Nail Trainer's nails are easily removed and replaced
in about 4-5 seconds. They also allow 4 varied depths
to which you can position the nail into the finger.
1=high position; 2, 3, 4= deeply embedded position.
|
NOT POSSIBLE |
CAN THE NAIL TRAINER NAILS ADJUST FOR VARIED AMOUNTS
OF FREE EDGE?

(for a longer free edge) or backward (for a shorter
free edge). |

CAN I PRACTICE DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES OF NAILS?

|
<-- YES! The Nail Trainer kit
includes 100 Nail Trainer practice nails that have
been specially designed. You receive 20 each of 5 different shapes
and sizes--from a wide nail to a nail biter's nail--giving
you the maximum training potential. These nails are
also designed with built-in cuticles so
you can practice "true to life" application.
(3 different varieties of
nail refit packs are available from our
shopping cart.) |
NOT POSSIBLE |
CAN I USE MY OWN NAIL PRODUCTS ON THE HAND?
|
<-- YES! You may use any
brand of
liquid/powder acrylic, gels, wraps, etc.) but it is
recommended that you use the acrylic primer and gel
prep products included in the kit to prevent damage
to the Nail Trainer nails. Obviously, use only non-acetone
to remove polish. |

type of hand you have. |

TRAINER'S NAILS?

<-- YES! Specially designed Nail
Trainer "maintenance
nails" are included to enable you to practice filing
down the crown, shortening the free edge, repairing
chips and cracks, then filling in the gap.
(Packs of maintenance nails and maintenance cards are available from our shopping cart.) |
NOT POSSIBLE |
CAN I SCULPT DIRECTLY ON THE HAND'S NAILS?

|
<-- YES! Use
the Nail Trainer nails as if they were a client's
fingernails and sculpt to your heart's content. Simply
attach a metal form to the finger and
away you go! |
SOMETIMES but with most brands,
you must first apply an extension. |
REGARDING REMOVAL OF THE PRODUCT, CAN I POP ANOTHER
NAIL IN THE HAND AND PRACTICE AGAIN RIGHT AWAY?
 |
<-- YES! This
is one
of the biggest advantages to having a Nail
Trainer. There's no messy removal or clean-up to
worry with so no time is wasted in your practice
routine. This also helps to build your confidence
level as well as improve your application and filing
speeds because you are able to practice more often.
|
NO, the product must be manually
filed away or soaked off first. |
IS THERE ANY WAY TO TRACK MY PROGRESS AND IMPROVEMENTS
FROM ONE SET TO ANOTHER, AND OVER SEVERAL WEEKS/MONTHS?
|
<-- YES! Two cleverly
designed assessment cards (1, 2) are included in every kit to allow you to visually track
your improvements. Your instructor can also use these
cards to help you master your skills faster. Remember, "Practice
makes perfect!" |
NOT POSSIBLE |
CAN I PRACTICE MY NAIL ART SKILLS ON THE NAIL TRAINER'S
NAILS?

|
<-- YES! Most of the nails in
the Nail Trainer kit are suitable for practicing both
free hand nail art as well as airbrushing. (Nail
Trainer "Nail art nails" are perfect for all nail
art purposes--available in our shopping cart.) |
NO
The nail plates are too short to accommodate nail art, especially airbrushing,
without manually building an extension first. |
CAN I USE IT TO ADVERTISE MY NAIL EXTENSIONS AND
NAIL ART CREATIONS?
|
<-- YES! Please do! It's the
quickest way to attract attention to YOU because it
makes a great conversation piece at your workstation.
Also, because of it's adjustable arm, it can be positioned
out of the way so it won't take up any space on
your desk top. Pop the nails out and replace with new
designs often to invite add-on services. Keep to showcase
in your Designs Display Card(s). |
YES, but it'd take up valuable
room on your desk top and the nails and designs |
WHEN I ORDER IT, ARE THERE ANY INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED
