"I have one. I love it! I purchased it to get my speed up on full sets of acrylics as I usually only do gels. It is like a real hand.   The wrist moves, fingers are rubbery and you can see when you are filing the finger and not the nail! You can use any product on it and just slide the nail off and put on a new one."

"I have one and they are fabulous....no sneaking out for a quick smoke...no interrupted mobile calls... no need to go to the bathroom....the Nail Trainer is always there!   Even at 4:00 in the morning she is there!  BRILLIANT!!! You can practice sculptured nails, fiberglass nails, gel nails, airbrushing nail extensions, acrylic overlays ....and she is there.   No gossip, no '' OH THAT HURTS!''  Buy it cause you're crazy if you don't. I paid $500 Aussie Dollars for mine...a little expensive, but my model was never late.  She was there on call every time."

"I love mine! I used it for practice all the time. Now I use it to hold tips for doing nail art samples. I use a product called "fun tack" to attach the tip to the trainer's nails, polish, do the art, then just peel the tip off the nail. Saves having to buy additional nails. I have used this technique to practice with, too."

"The Nail Trainer is worth every penny! I invested in one when I was struggling and have not regretted it. They are a great way to boost your confidence, you can work out all your gremlins in private until you know that your technique is right. And they continue to be useful when trying out new materials and techniques. They are an eye-catching way to display seasonal nail art too."

"I bought one last year and love it! I was just out of school (for cosmetology) and really needed a way to practice. Having a hand available at all times of the day really made it easy and quick to improve my techniques! Then at Christmas my husband bought me an airbrush.. I was able to use it to practice with that too! If you've got the money (they aren't cheap), I say go for it!!! If you're a newbie, you will be glad you have it!."

"Honestly when I first ordered it, I was leery of wasting more money, but it was beyond all my expectations! I felt like I had a real client's hand-- not the fake fingers schools use. It was the BEST and I do mean the best money I ever spent!!!! This is like always having a customer day or night, and YOU decide what to use. Every new product you can practice immediately, and perfect it quicker before trying it on clients. Also I always buy trial kits and try them out on the Nail Trainer first to see if I want to continue to use that line of product. Doing this saves me money too. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I think every school should teach with these--if they did, we would ALL walk out knowing how to do really good nails.

"The Nail Trainer is THE tool for the new nail technician who wants to practice technique. So much do I believe in it as a training tool that I made it mandatory as part of the course price for all the 35 Creative Nail Academies in the United Kingdom and Ireland!! We purchase now about 600 Nail trainers a month to accommodate the Academy Foundation classes alone.

The Nail Trainer provides a very realistic alternative to the 'real' thing and one can practice anytime and just do one perfect nail at a time without the pressure of time constraints or client demands.

We have found categorically that the students progress further and faster when they use the Nail Trainer ... and that is what it is all about isn't it?"

By the way ... don't sell it. You can always use it to practice nail art, and polishing techniques as well as using it to display the 'product of the month' in your salon!! It certainly gets noticed and talked about."

Crystal Somerset

"Why wasn't this invented 22 years ago when I first became a nail technician?"

"After completing my classroom course, I was not confident. I tried to do extensions on a friend and it was a complete disaster. Three days after getting your training,, I did a fantastic set of nails and was thrilled to bits."

Christine Cowell

"Anyone whose dream is becoming a nail technician should without a doubt choose your course. You can do it in your spare time and there’s no pressure to meet deadlines."

Sue Yates

"I've been a nail technician for 6 years but have only been doing gels.  I decided to buy your acrylic course and now I'll never have to turn away a client wanting acrylic again!"

Sylvia Tetterside

"I love these Home Learn courses! Living on an island, it's extremely costly to travel to the mainland.  Great products, idiot proof instructions, fantastic results! What more can I say?!!!"

Laura Graham

"Best course I have EVER done! I learned more than I could have done on any college course and all at my convenience with loads of excellent support. I can't wait to start my next course!! "

Cathryn Gerrard

"I thought I knew a lot about nails until I purchased one of your courses.  Found out quickly that I didn't know much at all, but thanks Home Learn, I'm now producing better quality than I ever thought possible."

Susan Reed

"Very worthwhile and I am now building a new career!"

Emma Shinerholt

"I have loved doing this course and would recommend it as a great way to start a career in nails.  I can't wait to start another course."

Fiona Hamilton

"Home Learn is the best investment I've made in my career in the last five years.  The video was very convenient because I could work at my own pace without the usual stress of learning something new.  Kudos to everyone who was involved in making a fantastic training course."

Missy Johnson

"Just to let you know, the course is great!! The dvd is EXCELLENT! I'll be doing the airbrush course next!"

Atiayh Zafar

"The DVD very clearly explained the techniques to be used and how. I found the book also complimented the HOME LEARN package. It will still remain invaluable to my library of nails!"

Tracey N.

"I wanted to write you. You guys were right. I got the acrylic tip-overlay kit before making the commitment to attend school. I learned so much with it that when I went to school, my instructor asked MY opinions sometimes. I was the star of my class thanks to this training."

Beverly Richardson

"I just had to send you a note. I got my Nail Trainer yesterday and I watched your training videos only last night. I have a slew of videos and I have to tell you, your videos are by far the best!!! I took my trainer out this morning at around 8:00 and stopped at noon to take a break and email you. I love everything about this and can't believe the nails I am doing already. This is fantastic! I always had a problem with filing. For some reason I just could not get it and I have taken Creative classes and have videos from Tammy Taylor, Odessy, and Creative. But because of your videos and the way you teach it, I now have it! Every school in the U.S. should have this!

As you can probably tell my confidence level is pretty high right now. I just know I am going to be doing not just average nails but GREAT NAILS."
