Dear Nicola,
Sorry to hear that you did not fully enjoy your experience of the course, due to requiring a kit. We try and keep our course prices affordable and give options for the kits, should some customers have some items already, to save on unnecessary expense. The kit also sets you up and leaves enough after the training day to offer the service to customers, to get a healthy return on your investment. In hindsight we could have seen what arrangements we could have made ahead of the day or offered you a later date for training, so you had everything you needed prior to the day of the practical. Sorry you felt uncomfortable regarding borrowing from the Trainer - the store and trainer aren’t equipped with spares for use on the training day only. Students will need the kit to take home and practice and then offer the TMC gel nails as a service following the course and so students use their own kit in their training and get familiar with the products and how to use them. Glad to hear that the store were able to give you a trial size to try at home and hope you enjoyed the course itself and took away with you a lifelong skill you can use in the future.
