What are the main disadvantages of training as a nail designer?

After a thorough nail designer training course, you will be able to carry out professional beauty treatments on nails. Thanks to your specialist knowledge, you can also carry out sophisticated treatments and monitor the health of hands and fingernails.

The main disadvantages of training as a nail designer are:

1. The nail designer training course is not federally recognized; it is a certificate or course confirmation. There is no recognized and regulated training. It is advisable to compare the various offers. You can also find out more from SwissNailDesign (SND).
2. At certificate level, the course content and admission requirements are generally not regulated and can be determined autonomously by the schools. When choosing a course, make sure that it supports your professional goals.
3. In addition to a feeling for shapes and colors, a job in nail design also requires a precise way of working, hygiene awareness, sociability and communication skills. Not everyone has all of these qualities and not all of them can be acquired through nail design training.
4. The training costs of CHF 2,700 to CHF 3,500 for the more extensive training courses are not subsidized by the federal government, as no federal examination is taken. The extra-occupational form often leads to a double burden, but hardly any loss of salary. A room, material and various utensils are required to practice the profession independently.

Nail designers specialize in hand and fingernail care. They work in a nail salon, hairdressing salon or in their own business.
