This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to apply a range of advanced nail art designs.

It requires the ability to consult with clients, select suitable products and techniques and apply two- or three-dimensional nail designs combining acrylic or gel, and nail art products. Advanced nail art can be an individual service, or form part of a series of services.

This unit applies to nail technicians, beauticians and beauty therapist who work in beauty and nail salons. In this environment they may work as part of a team or autonomously, but they make independent creative decisions.

The skills in this unit must be applied in accordance with Commonwealth and State or Territory legislation, Australian standards and industry codes of practice.

No occupational licensing, certification or specific legislative requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
