Japan Professional Nail Care Association
┃We train nail technicians who are trusted by customers and provide support until they find employment.
We have recently launched the Japan Professional Nail Care Association (JPNCA).
In recent years, the nail industry has been dominated by gel nails, but we have received many comments from customers who come to our salon for eyebrow nails.
"I want more salons that can provide this care."
"I would like to receive the polish menu as well."
We have received many comments like this.
While an increasing number of customers are seeking the kind of nail care that nail salons offer, there are currently very few manicurists with the skills to meet these demands.
We will continue to expand our activities to spread nail care, which is essential for salon work, throughout the industry.

This is a practical school where you learn almost one-on-one while observing eyebrow nails being made in progress.
You will face your current skills and improve the skills necessary for salon work one by one.
Acquiring certification and salon work are separate
Certification is the basics, salon work is applied
Re:Program
The "Re:" symbolizes a rethinking of care and rebuilding oneself as a professional.
What “Re:” means
The Japan Professional Nail Care Association proposes:
A new way of learning.
To become a nail technician who can provide care.
It also means rethinking technology.
Reassess yourself as a professional.
Rethinking care means rethinking yourself as a professional.
To refine your care is to rediscover your professionalism.
