The Stiletto Shape video includes a step-by-step explanation and demonstration on a model.
Every step is described in detail of how to create this extravagant shape correctly and easily.
Practising this specific shape would help to improve your skills in everyday salon work. It is great training for a beginner but also for experienced nail technicians to revise the form fitting or filing techniques.
In this video I’m using an acrylic system. If you are working with a different product system you will be able to follow the same steps.
Purchasing this video will give you access to a private Facebook group: Monika Then Online Stiletto Training.
