What does it take to become a nail technician? Can anyone do it?

What I am trying to say is, are there any special TRAITS that would make a person more suitable for it than another? Say, do you have to be creative, artistic, etc. (I am neither). Thank you for your help. Any advise welcome.What does it take to become a nail technician? Can anyone do it?

Caring for nails is more of a learned application. Your own creativity will blossom as you learn proper procedures. Creativity doing nails really only stands out in nail designs. Practice make perfect. Usually in the nail salon, there are one or two people who only do nail designs so dont feel bad. If you look in any salon there are millions of nail design examples. Take some nails home and design yourself to practice.What does it take to become a nail technician? Can anyone do it?
you dont have to have any special traits some people are just naturally good at it others can go to school and learn out to do it so i think anyone can do it you have to just go with your heart you can do any thing you want as long as you are happy good luck
Anyone can do it. Just go to school. It's very fast. And easy. Just kinda boring.
