This certification is designed specifically for experienced hair technicians who are already working in the hair industry but do not hold a formal qualification.
It recognises real-world skills, professional procedures, and industry-standard practices without requiring candidates to retake a full training course.

Instead of classroom learning, applicants demonstrate their competency through practical evidence submission aligned with international beauty standards.

Successful candidates will receive an official certificate verifying their technical skills, professionalism, and compliance with recognised nail industry standards.

This certification helps technicians:

  • Strengthen professional credibility

  • Build client trust

  • Support salon or business expansion

  • Meet industry and academy standard requirements

  • Improve employability and pricing confidence

Successful candidates will receive a Digital E-Certificate issued by the Beauty Standard Association International Board (Inclusive 2 years membership worth USD 116) within 14 days
