If you’re attending the female intimate waxing course as a student and you’re unwilling or unable to act as a model for your fellow students, you have a couple of options:

• You can bring your own model along, on prior agreement with nkd. This model must not have shaved, waxed, or removed her pubic hair in any other way for 4 weeks before the date of your training course.
• Your model will only be able to stay in the training room for the time that she is required to model. There are loads of shops, restaurants and bars close to our salon for her to visit during the rest of the day!
• You can pay an additional fee of £35.00 and we will source a replacement model for you. In this case, you must let us know at the time of booking your course so that we have time to source the additional model.

Please note that if you turn up without the required amount of hair and without a model who has the required amount of hair, you will not be allowed to complete the course and we will be unable to issue you with a refund.

If you have any hang ups about offering a Brazilian or Hollywood wax, you should not enrol on any intimate waxing course, either with nkd or any other training provider! Both our male and female intimate waxing courses involve the waxing of the entire genital region. You should not book onto our courses if this notion makes you feel uncomfortable. That said, receiving the proper training may give you the confidence you require to overcome your shyness.

Clients will, however, pick up on any discomfort or embarrassment you feel, so make sure that you are truly at one with Brazilian/Hollywood waxing before you consider offering this treatment to your clients. There are plenty of other beauty treatments that are also in high demand if you decide that Brazilian/Hollywood waxing is not for you!

To protect ourselves and you, nkd has high standards. If we do not feel you have reached the required level of waxing on the day of your course, we are sorry but we will be unable to certify you. In that instance, you will be given one month to go away, practice your techniques and return to nkd to be re-assessed. Unfortunately, we will not be able to refund you the cost of your course or any associated monies if you fail your re-assessment.

For this reason, we advise that you ensure you are already proficient and confident in traditional “pot and spatula” type waxing before booking onto an advanced waxing course.

Maximum class sizes will be usually be 3 students to give everyone the closest possible attention. nkd feels very strongly that class sizes should be kept small/the relevant number of trainers are on hand to ensure that every student gets as much attention as possible. We recommend that you think very carefully before enrolling on any waxing training courses which accept more than 6 – 8 students, unless a second trainer will be present.

Lunch is not provided. There are lots of supermarkets, cafes and bars near to our salons and training centres where you can buy lunch from.

Please wear normal professional salon working attire, e.g. a tunic or something similar.

Yes, all training students are required to act as a model for their fellow training course attendees. This means that you will wax your fellow students and they will wax you. If you are unable or unwilling to act as a model on the day of your training course, then you must pay a £35 surcharge which will enable us to find a replacement model to stand in for you (so one of your fellow training students will wax this external model instead of waxing you). Please note that it is a strict condition of our wax training courses that you do act as a model and that you have the required regrowth.
