Twenty-two modules — Polygel, Acry-dip, Structure Gel, No-Glue Extension, BIAB (2 topics), Soft Gel / Gel X, and full toe overlays (acrylic and builder gel).
Structure of the natural nail — nail plate, nail bed, matrix, cuticle, hyponychium, lateral folds. Nail growth cycles, conditions affecting growth, and how each structural element informs safe extension application.
Comprehensive training in tools knowledge — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.
Comprehensive training in safety & sanitation — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.
The precision cuticle technique using an electric file. Correct bit selection, RPM settings, dry manicure methodology, cuticle vs. skin identification, and the correct order of operations for a clean professional result.
Comprehensive training in dry manicure — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.
Comprehensive training in nail prep & shaping — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.
Monomer and polymer chemistry, correct bead-to-liquid ratios, form and tip placement, shaping, filing and refinement, apex placement for structural strength, finishing and aftercare.
Hard gel viscosity, self-levelling behaviour, dual-form and foil-form application, curing protocols, layer building for length, tip and form techniques, gel compatibility.
Comprehensive training in no-glue extension — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.
The hybrid that handles like acrylic but cures like gel. Pinching tool technique, brush-and-slip, shaping before and after cure, troubleshooting common errors.
Comprehensive training in press-on nail extension — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.

Comprehensive training in soft gel / gel-x extension — correct technique, application sequence, professional finishing, and safe aftercare.
Fill vs. backfill decision, product lifting correction, nail bed prep, zone-one filling without disturbing the smile line, structural integrity over multiple fills.

Extension adapted for toes — curved and uneven nail beds, correct product choice, shorter free edge discipline, client comfort.
Acrylic overlay on natural toe nails for strength and aesthetics without added length. Thin application, filing, finishing, aftercare.

Common Questions
Before you enroll
Each session is hands-on from the start. The first part of each day covers the theory and technique demonstration — you watch closely while the instructor works on a hand. The second part is supervised practice on your own hand or a practice hand. Instructors are with you throughout, correcting posture, pressure, and technique in real time. No session ends without you attempting the technique yourself.
We keep batch sizes intentionally small — typically 4 to 8 students — so every student receives individual attention from the instructor. You are never watching from the back of a large class.
You ask, and we stop and go through it again. There is no 'too slow' at Luxtique. Additionally, students get post-course support access — you can send photos or videos of your practice work after the course ends and receive feedback.
Advanced adds the specialist extension systems (Polygel, Acry-dip, Structure Gel, No-Glue) and full toe overlays, and roughly doubles the art repertoire — adding Aquarelle, Glass Art, 4D Carving, Mandala, Stained Glass, Air Brush Ombre and Scenery/Theme work. It is the bridge from competent professional to in-demand specialist.
Yes. Most Advanced graduates run their own studio service menu confidently — the curriculum covers every common request plus the premium techniques that justify higher pricing.
