Anyone here done any nail courses? Gels, acrylics etc?

[PatienceLong]

I need to do a course - can anyone recommend where's the best place to do one? I've never done anything like this before, I'm a complete novice, and have no idea where to start! I have contacted my local college and they do not do them
I have googled it, but obviously all sorts of things come up and I have no idea what's good and what's not - HELP!
TIA X

I did my training at The Beauty Academy, really good and locations across the country
