Dip Acrylic

About the Course

Our Dip Extensions course is ideal for the beginner nail technician who wants to offer this popular treatment on their menu.

Dip nails are created by brushing the nail with glue, sprinkling on the same powder used in liquid and powder systems, and then adding an activator, sparking a chain reaction between the acrylic and the glue to create a hard, smooth surface. Dip acrylic is long lasting, and can be applied to the natural nail or extensions. This treatment is non-odour as no monomer is required.
