Course description
Manicure and Pedicure (Level 2)
Did you know that manicure (literally ‘care of the hands’ from French and Latin) has been around for more than 5000 years? Or that one of the best treatments for your hands involves covering them in molten wax?
Of course, the same applies to pedicure, although in the west we have taken to decorating our feet much more recently than middle eastern cultures that have been doing it for hundreds of years. You’ll learn all about the fascinating history and much more – related to present day practices – on this outstanding course.
This fascinating Level 2 Manicure and Pedicure course from Cambridge Open College provides a real insight into treatment of the hands and feet. The course results, on successful completion, in an Endorsed Qualification awarded under Focus Awards’ FQP (Focus on Quality Provision) Scheme.
It’ s also an ideal primer for a career in beauty. It covers many aspects of salon work and goes through descriptions of the various skin and nail care treatments in some detail.
