Free Acrylic Nail Course + Starter Kit | Learn Acrylics

119.00 USD

This is where it starts.

If you've wanted to learn acrylics but never knew where to begin — this is it. One kit, one course, one expert showing you exactly how it's done. In person, in Houston.

What's included: a free 1–1.5 hour hands-on acrylic course

Taught by fully booked, working nail techs right here in Houston — the kind who do this every day, on real clients. No experience required. Just show up ready to learn.

You'll leave knowing how to do a complete acrylic set, start to finish. We don't say that lightly.

What your course covers

  • Chemical safety — what you're working with, and how to protect yourself
  • Product knowledge — every tool and product in your kit, and what it's for
  • Acrylic application — the hardest skill to learn on your own, broken down step by step
  • Beginner mistakes — the ones everyone makes, and how to skip them from day one

What's inside your kit

  • 4 fl oz Advance Plus Monomer
  • Ultrabond
  • Dehydrator
  • XXL or XL Square Nail Tips — box of 504
  • File, 100/100 or 150/150
  • 3 heart buffers
  • 1 oz Acrylic Cover Powder
  • 1 oz Crystal Clear Acrylic Powder
  • Lumi Nosa Lux
  • 2 nail glue sticks
  • #12 Magic Kolinsky acrylic brush
  • Crystal Brush Duster
  • Dappen dish
  • Nail tip cutter (pink or black)

Everything you touch in the course goes home with you — so the morning after, you can sit down and run a full set on your own. This is the kit your first real set gets built on.

How it works

How to book + grab your kit

  1. Pick your location and class time right here on this page — your kit and your seat get added together automatically.
  2. At checkout, choose Pickup — not shipping. You're coming in for the class, so your kit is waiting for you when you arrive. (Choosing shipping sends the kit to your door and you'll miss the in-person class.)
  3. Show up to your booked time ready to learn. It's all hands-on, and the full kit goes home with you.

Heads-up: classes are small and seats go fast — when a time's gone, it's gone. Grab the one you want while it's open.

What to bring

Bring a portable UV lamp if you have one — you'll get to practice curing as part of the class. Don't have one yet? No problem, we'll lend you one for the session.

Who This Is For

Complete beginners, DIY nail lovers, and aspiring nail techs in the Houston area who want to learn the right way — with real products, real instruction, and zero guesswork.

Important Notice

This course includes a Certificate of Completion — but it is not a cosmetology or nail technician license.

In the state of Texas, a license is required to perform nail services for compensation. This course is intended for personal use only and does not qualify you to offer paid nail services to clients.

If you're interested in becoming a licensed nail tech in Texas, ask us in class — we'll share the schools we personally recommend in the Houston area.

Need to reschedule?

Just call the store and we'll move you to another time. Give us at least 48 hours' notice whenever you can. Life happens, so if you miss your class, we'll grant a one-time reschedule to get you back in.

F&Q

How do I sign up for the free nail course?

To enroll in our free nail course, simply schedule and pay for your booking. Kit can be picked up at the day of the event.

How do I book my class time?

Pick your location and time right on this page before checkout — your spot and your kit are added together. At checkout, choose Pickup, not shipping, so your kit's ready for you at class.

Can I bring a friend?

The class stays focused, so it's just you in the room. Family is welcome to wait outside or anywhere that doesn't interrupt the session.

Do I keep the kit?

Yes — everything in it is yours to take home and keep practicing with.

Who can benefit from the free nail course?

Anyone looking to dive into nail art or enhance their existing skills! Our course is tailored for beginners but is also a great way for experienced nail artists to brush up on fundamentals.

Is there a limit to how many free courses I can attend?

Your purchase of the kit grants you access to one free course session to ensure that as many of our customers as possible can benefit from this offer.

Will I receive a certification for completing the course?

Yes, upon completion of the course, you will receive a certificate from Hey Beautiful. Please note, this certificate is not a professional license.

Can this course help me obtain a nail technician license?

While our course is a great introduction to nail art, it does not grant a professional license. However, we collaborate with multiple schools in the area that can guide you towards obtaining your license. We recommend starting with our course to determine your interest in nail artistry.

How often are the courses held?

We host our nail courses once a month, rotating between our Houston location once every month.

What do I bring to the course?

Bring the kit and if possible a rechargeable lamp. If not we can lend you one.

What if I've never done nail art before?

Our course is designed with beginners in mind, making it the perfect starting point for anyone new to nail art. Our friendly instructors will guide you through each step, ensuring you feel confident and capable.

Where is the acrylic nail course located?

The course is held in-store at Hey Beautiful Nail Supplies in Pasadena, TX & — serving the greater Houston area.

How long is the course?

Approximately 1 hour to 1:30.

Depends on the speed of the whole classroom.

Who teaches the course?

Our courses are taught by fully booked, licensed working nail techs with real-world experience — not just classroom instructors.

What do I get with the kit?

Everything you need to practice after your course — monomer, acrylic powder, brush, tips, files, glue, and more. Everything is included.

Does this course give me a license or certification?

You'll receive a Certificate of Completion — but this is not a cosmetology or nail technician license. In Texas, a license is required before you can charge for nail services. This course is designed for personal use. If you're thinking about going pro, ask us in class and we'll point you toward the right schools in Houston.
