I found this course to be quite tricky initially, however with not only one way of creating extensions and with plenty of time to put both into practice throughout the day, I did manage to create multiple styles and shapes using the Gel Extension techniques. I think this is such an important skill to gain as a nail tech, as Nat quite rightly told us, that even if we don’t want to do extensions all the time, if a bride were to approach me wanting her nails done but closer to her day, a nail breaks, being able to repair that broken nail with an extension so they all match will be an excellent service to offer. I thoroughly enjoyed this course.

I did the full 3-day course with Beckie and she is a fountain of knowledge! Having previously been a customer at her salon Preen and also attending nail art masterclasses with her, I was already aware of how motivating, helpful and talented she is - this course only solidified that. She made sure that every member was settled in and given equal attention, as well as catering to the needs of those working at different levels - from newbies in the industry to pros converting over to TGB. Beckie is very professional and an absolute honour to be taught by. I 100% recommend doing any of her courses as the value is so much more than the cost! Thanks so much Beckie x

I did the full gel polish and hard gel extension course with Ewa at the start of Jan 2025 and it was brilliant! Ewa is so knowledgable about TGB and very helpful throughout the course. She made sure she checked on everyones work and gave individual feedback even in big groups! Ewa also is so responsive on emails and instagram and is amazingly talented herself! I can only hope to be as good one day!

I have just completed the Full gel Bottle course with Ewa in Exeter. This lady it extremely talented, very knowledgeable and it was a pleasure to spend three days with Ewa. She delivered the course at ease, which gave me reassurance that I had booked with the best. Ewa is also a lovely, kind and very patient individual. A credit to the Gel Bottle Academy. I wish I could spend more time just soaking up her knowledge. I can’t wait to book for the e- file course with Ewa in March. Thank you so much. Xx

As a complete beginner I was so nervous and from the moment I met Darry I knew I was in the good hands. I can confidently say it was one of the most valuable and inspiring learning experiences I’ve had. From start to finish, Darry demonstrated professionalism, passion, and a deep mastery of her craft. She made me feel at ease, capable and provided reassurance not just throughout the course but continued her support after the completion of the course. I cannot recommend Darry enough and she will always be a huge inspiration to me & I will keep fan girling over her perfect prep work & nails ????

I attended this course yesterday with Hannah and loved every minute of it. It was informal and friendly but very informative. Hannah is a great teacher, precise, practical, patient and explained every step very well. I left extremely pleased with what I learnt and what I had managed to do even during my fist attempt at BIAB application. I am very likely to book another course with TGB and hopefully Hannah

Beckie was absolutely amazing and I loved doing the course with her. She was so welcoming and friendly when we all first started, and made us all feel comfortable. She goes above and beyond to help you and gives you extra tips and tricks along the way. She even bought us a platter of food full of pastry to nibble on throughout the course which was a nice surprise. Lastly the building itself is also a lovely place to learn, with big open windows that let lots of natural light in, its big and it doesnt feel cramped or like you're in a classroom. Would 100% recommend beckie to everyone!
