Editorial Reviews

Milady has been the choice of textbook at all of the schools I have been employed, including the current college in which I facilitate. The information contained in the textbooks continues to evolve and allow students to learn practical applicable accurate industry driven content. I commend the companies continued effort to allow our industry to grow and remain current.

The emphasis placed on Communications, Life Skills and Nail art sold me. As the leading factors in business success for the current nail industry I was really pleased to see the adjustments and attention to their development.
