This full-day classroom workshop will teach you to perform a combined manicure using a mix of eFile bits and manual tools such as nippers / scissors. The combi-prep technique gives a flawless result and is suitable for all clients, not to mention the time it saves. Along with covering the combi prep technique, we will also teach the correct application of 'builder-in-a-bottle' to a flawless finish without refining the surface.

During this workshop you will learn:

• Essential knowledge about diamond bits (grits, shapes, diameter etc)
• Correct speeds, angles & rotation
• Correct technique of lifting the skin and cleaning the cuticle area
• How to correctly use nippers and scissors 
• How to polish the skin
• How to apply builder-in-a-bottle to create a smooth surface without filing
• How to apply gel polish neatly & close to the cuticle area
• How to perform a combi manicure & use cuticle remover
