TGB Academy

Cecile was extremely articulate when teaching and very informative and patient with all of my questions. She was so lovely/welcoming and even made one of the beginners feel very confident in her work, she’s very inspiring to look up to as someone quite established in the nail industry. If you are wanting to get started with TGB and train in NZ this is your educator, she is incredible. Thank you Cecile for being so awesome. Can’t wait to come back to the showroom at some point for some products.

What a brilliant educator Sharon is. I was quite nervous about coming over from The Netherlands to do the Gel Extenstions- Beginner, BIAB and E-File course but within minutes of starting the first course, it felt comfortable and as if I had know Sharon for ages! All the courses were explained clearly, any questions were answered with detail and or demonstration. The vibe was casual but very informative, so it left you wanting to learn more. Really can’t recommend Sharon enough to help you become the best nail stylist. Looking to book more courses in the near future. Thank you again.

I recently completed a BIAB nail course with Hayley and I honestly couldn’t recommend it enough! Hayley is such a knowledgeable, patient, and passionate educator who truly wants her students to succeed. The course was so well-structured. What really stood out was how hands-on the training was. Hayley made sure everyone got individual attention and left feeling confident. She explains everything clearly, shares insider tips, and gives honest, constructive feedback that really helps you improve. The resources provided were fantastic too — clear, detailed, and super helpful for referring back to after the class. I left feeling not only more skilled, but also inspired and excited to take my nail career to the next level.

Beckie is a fantastic teacher, and as a beginner makes you feel completely comfortable. She has amazing knowledge and skills and I left feeling much more confident. The little tips and tricks she taught us were invaluable and really made a difference to the quality of my work. She is very hands on and honest and you can tell she wants everyone to be the best they possibly can. As someone who was new to nails and had only played around with gel on myself (and my mum..) I left feeling confident in my ability and excited to continue improving. Thank you Beckie x

Rebecca exceeded all my expectations for TGB Beginner Gel Polish course. I feel so lucky that she was the educator behind my training, the knowledge and experience she was able incorporate into the beginners course left me feeling confident and empowered to go out and start my endeavour and passion of nails. If you considering doing this training with Rebecca all I can say is stop questioning and do it!

I have just completed the full gel bottle course with Hannah and I wanted to say how amazing she was! The demonstrations and explanations were so detailed, along with all the other extra hints and tips she gave along the way! Hannah also was great in giving feedback and made me feel very comfortable in asking any questions I had. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her as an educator and can’t wait to return for the e-file course with her!

Zara was a wonderful trainer who covered everything really well.
