  2. A Fantastic Facial Massage & Skincare Training Course with Trainer Katy (Birmingham)

    :

    I recently took part in an amazing Facial Massage & Skincare training course, led by the fabulous trainer Katy. It was an eye-opening experience that gave me a wealth of knowledge and skills to enhance my skincare treatments.
    Right from the get-go, the course emphasised the importance of keeping our clients safe. Katy meticulously covered all health and safety aspects related to facial skincare treatments, ensuring that we can provide a secure and enjoyable environment for our clients.
    Anatomy and physiology of the skin were also taught in a way that made it easy to understand. It was fascinating to learn about the different layers of the skin and how they contribute to its overall health. This knowledge has been invaluable in assessing and addressing my clients’ skincare needs.
    The consultation techniques taught during the course were a game-changer for me. I now feel confident in conducting thorough consultations with my clients, allowing me to customise treatments that target their specific concerns and conditions. It’s all about giving them that personalised touch!
    Understanding contraindications was another crucial part of the training. Katy made sure we were well-versed in recognising potential risks and limitations, equipping us to adjust our treatments accordingly and prioritise our clients’ well-being.
    The hands-on part of the course was incredibly fulfilling. I learned the step-by-step process of delivering a facial skincare treatment, from cleansing and toning to performing a skin analysis, applying masks and moisturisers, and even incorporating a relaxing facial massage. This holistic approach has taken my treatments to a whole new level, leaving my clients feeling pampered and refreshed.
    The course stressed the importance of homecare and aftercare advice. Taking care of our skin doesn’t end when the treatment does. Katy made sure we understood how to guide our clients on maintaining the benefits of their facial treatments at home, so they can continue to enjoy healthy and radiant skin.
    In conclusion, attending the Facial Massage & Skincare training course with trainer Katy has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career. The course offered a comprehensive understanding of effective facial treatments and armed me with the necessary skills to excel in the skincare industry. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their knowledge and elevate their offerings for clients.

    A massive thank you to Karen who led this course with kindness and patience!
