Recomand cu mare drag! Andriana, pe lângă faptul ca este o persoană minuntata este și o profesoară de nota 10! Este atentă la orice detaliu, te ajută la orice pas și pleci de la ea cu un bagaj imens în artă unghiutelor frumoase! În cele 5 zile am învățat foarte multe, și chiar dacă la început ți se pare ca ai 2 mâini strângi la final o să fii foarte mândra de munca ta ! Recomand 100%

Cea mai frumoasa experiență am avut la cursul de baza cu Adriana. Un trainer extraordinar, care explica pe intelesul tuturor, cu multa rabdare. Pe langa asta, Adriana este si o persoana extraordinară, un om bun de la care orice persoana are ce invata o data în viata. O femeie atat de puternica si care ofera atat de multa incredere celor din jur. Imi pare rau ca am apucat sa petrec doar 5 zile alaturi de Adriana, dar ma voi intoarce cu drag la cursurile ei, pentru ca are atat de multe de oferit 🩵🩵🩵
Produsele ce inalta calitate de asemenea 🩵

Cel mai mult mi-a placut modul de predare, rabdarea si ca ne-ai lasat sa facem modele de capul nostru😅 Consider ca nu mai este nimic de imbunatatit, cursul este perfect! Experienta a fost uimitioare, mi-am dorit de multa vreme sa fac acest curs si mi-a depasit asteptarile. Consider ca am deprins abilitati care imi vor usura munca.Clar recomand cu incredere acest curs tuturor fetelor care vor sa inceapa o cariera din unghii. Multumesc mult pentru calmul si rabdarea ta.🥰
