A final word from one of Nina’s educators
‘I enjoyed watching the growth and transformation over the year that Nina was at The French Beauty Academy. Nina started as a student that lacked belief and confidence in her own abilities, however Nina was very self-motivated and worked tenaciously with both her theory and practical work to enable her success in this.
During Nina’s learning journey with her educators and fellow peers this helped transpire her into a confident, passionate and capable graduate who was ready to take on the world of beauty therapy’
Love your work Nina!
