NSI Manufacturing Headquarters hosted an international training and educational event in Philadelphia in June. NSI University welcomed 47 nail technicians representing 14 different countries to the four-day intensive training course taught by Denise Wright and Hazel Dixon. Attendees received hands-on training in acrylic, gel, nail art, and competition techniques. They were also the first to preview three new products from NSI: Secrets Nail Art System, Secrets Removable Gel, and enhancement polish Go Color.
As part of her presentation, nail tech Alla Kinder from NSI Ukraine sculpted a figurine of NSI CEO Fred Slack made entirely of New Secrets products. It took her more than five hours to complete.
Awards were given out on the last day of the training and each technician received a Certificate of Completion. A handful of talented nail technicians were given the unique opportunity to become certified NSI educators. “NSI University was a tremendous opportunity to build our network of nail technicians. We want to create products for the nail tech and their feedback is a crucial part of new product development,” says Fred Slack, CEO and director of research and development.
