About Professional Nail Technician & Artistry
Why This Program Stands Out
I know nails aren't just about looks - they're about skill, hustle, and making a name for yourself. This is where your meri pehchaan ki journey (my journey of identity) starts. At Lakmē Academy, we mix hands-on practice with real-world exposure so you can actually see what it takes to be one in a million.
Skills You’ll Pick Up
- Get the basics locked: flawless manicures, pedicures, nail anatomy.
- Dive into Russian manicure training for that next-level neat finish.
- Build nail extensions with both UV gel and acrylic, plus learn the science behind them.
- Go wild with creativity: 3D nail art classes, geometric patterns, and Korean jelly nails workshop styles.
- Practice on real models, not just dummy hands.
What Makes Us Different
- Trainers with real Lakmē Salon experience have your back.
- Yeh ek aisa manch hai (this is a platform) where you get backstage exposure at events like Lakmē Fashion Week and Miss Universe India.
- 1-month nail artist internship program at branded salons for actual client work.
- Personality development module to boost your confidence and communication.
Your Next Step
Whether you want to be a Nail Artist, open your own salon, or teach others, you’ll leave here ready to take on the real world. Opportunity mil rahi hai (opportunity is knocking) for those who are ready to grab it.

My Story
We started Lakmé Academy after seeing folks struggling with YouTube tutorials—never quite matched up, right? Real learning needs real people. Nalini came to us, confidence zero, walked out working at Delhi Times Fashion Week, beaming. Tanya, ek mehendi artist thi (she was a mehendi artist), family didn’t support her—do mahine ke andar job mil gayi (within two months, she got a job). For her, yeh sirf job nahi, pehchaan hai (not just a job, it’s identity). That’s why we do what we do. We help you build your own story.
