Accredited vs Regulated... simplified! 💇‍♀️💅✨

So many students get overwhelmed by course terminology, but it’s actually really simple once you break down what you get for your money.

✨ ACCREDITED COURSES

• Quick, intensive training (usually 1–2 days).

• Great for learning a single skill (like lash lifts or brow lamination, nails, beauty).

• Gives you a certificate to gain insurance and start taking clients for yourself straight away.

🎓 REGULATED QUALIFICATIONS

• Full-length courses sitting on official educational levels (Level 2, 3, 4, VTCT, ITEC or very well known as NVQ etc.).

• Involves coursework, case studies, and practical exams.

• Recognised nationwide by big salons, spas, and necessary for progressing into advanced aesthetics or laser later on.

Your body carries this whole career. 🤍
sitting, standing, bent over a client all day — it adds up. neck, shoulders, wrists, back... they lock up if we let them.
so I stretch. every few clients. always.
the job matters...
but your health matters more.
take care of the body that takes care of others 🤍

asked strangers what they actually think about nails.
the answers? not what I expected.

which answer surprised you the most?

okay so... course is done.

and honestly? my girls were amazing.
these last few days were HOT.
like... properly hot.

Not the easiest conditions to teach in, to be real with you.

But we showed up anyway.
we practiced anyway.

And we made it through — together.
thank you to Lead Academy for having us.

And thank you to every single one of my girls.
watching you grow in just a few days...
that's the whole reason I do this.

It was seriously hot in Guildford last week... but we still made it happen! 🎤

A very hot and sunny day, lots of walking, lots of filming, and lots of honest conversations.

I just want to say thank you to all the ladies who stopped, took part, and were honest with me.

Thank you for your time, your confidence, and for sharing your thoughts. ❤️

The most common questions I'm asked is: "Which accreditation should I choose?"

The truth is, not all beauty courses are the same.
Before you invest your time and money, take a few minutes to find out:
✔ Who accredits the course?
✔ Will your qualification be accepted by insurers?
✔ Will it support your future career goals?
✔ Can you progress to higher-level training?

In this carousel, I've explained some of the most recognised beauty accreditation and membership organisations, including BABTAC, The Guild, ABT, IPHM and CPD, to help you understand what they do and how they may benefit your career.
