ABT Accredited | Professional Nail Training
This course has been expertly designed to develop both your technical knowledge and practical skill, enabling you to confidently offer Builder Gel Overlays – a durable, versatile nail service that remains consistently in demand.
Builder Gel is a professional gel system formulated to provide strength, structure and support to the natural nail, making it ideal for clients who need extra durability and protection. As a soft gel system, builder gel can be safely removed by soaking in acetone when applied and removed correctly.
Unlike hard gel or acrylic systems, builder gel is not designed to create length or extensions. Instead, it focuses on reinforcing the natural nail and creating a strong, structured overlay.
By completing this course, you’ll not only learn how to apply, infill/rebalance and remove builder gel, but you’ll also gain a clear understanding of the product science, nail structure and safety considerations behind the system.
Whether you’re looking to expand your treatment menu or refine your overlay work, this training provides everything you need to deliver consistent, professional results with confidence.
