Corrective techniques for ingrown nails — non-invasive, within the cosmetic scope.
Advanced registered nail techs; a rare specialty on the Gulf Coast.
We recommend solid pedicure experience — or our Advanced Dry Pedicure course — before this training. The techniques themselves are learnable in a day; the judgment of when to treat and when to refer is what the day is really about.
Small groups, weekly starts. Leave your contacts — we will send the next date and syllabus.
The course is one full day, 10:00–18:00. Morning: mechanics, stages and scope. Afternoon: hands-on correction practice on training devices and live models with early-stage cases.
Ingrown nail support is a referral magnet: clients arrive in pain, leave relieved, and tell everyone. Because the condition recurs, clients return every 4–6 weeks — a stable, recurring booking pattern. Specialists typically price corrective visits at $55–85.

You refer — that is the correct professional answer, and the course gives you the exact wording and a podiatrist referral list. Serving out-of-scope cases is what gets techs in trouble; knowing the boundary is the skill.
Yes — the two courses are designed as a pair: Foot Care covers compromised skin and nails broadly, this course goes deep on the single most common painful case.
