My name is Linda Chapman, I began my beauty career in 2006 by completing the NVQ Level 2 Beauty Therapy course at Truro College. I loved it immediately and followed it up by studying VTCT Level 2 Nail Technology and VTCT Level 2 Nail Art, both taught by Chrissy Grant at Truro College.
Since then I have also qualified with Caflon for ear piercing, Star Gems for temporary tooth gems, Truro College for henna tattooing, Lash Perfect for semi-permanent individual eyelash extensions, SiennaX for spray tanning, Hayden Health & Beauty Training Academy for threading, Ultimate Beauty Training Academy for Hopi Ear Candling.
I became a Creative Nail Design (CND) Master Nail Technician in both Acrylic and Gel Enhancements, and later in Spa-tacular (Spa Manicure and Spa Pedicure) treatments to become a CND Grand Master Nail Technician in 2010. I also qualified with CND in Minx, Shellac and Kupa efile.
In April 2011 I completed a "Preparing To Teach in Life Long Learning" course at Cornwall College and attended a Gemma Lambert course in Acrylic Design and 3D Nail Art. Then in 2012 I completed the VTCT Level 3 Nail Services at Truro College and gained 1st place in two inter class competitions, 1st place in The Cornish Skills Challenge 2012 & 1st place in The Worldskills UK Competition 2012. In February 2013, I attended further courses with Gemma Lambert in One Stroke Nail Art, Gel Design and 3D Nail Art. During April 2013 I attended a Kirsty Meakin course in Flowers, Frills, Bows and Bling.
At first I worked as a Mobile Therapist, then in early 2009 I joined my nail teacher, Chrissy Grant and her team at Ultimate Beauty in Falmouth, where I gained invaluable experience. I continued to work there part-time whilst opening my own TLC Nails & Beauty in Truro on 1st June 2010 where I also worked part-time. In November 2010 I became full-time at TLC Nails & Beauty. In June 2011 I returned part-time to Ultimate Beauty to help teach in the newly opened training academy. In November 2012 I brought "Shelleys Unisex Hair Stylists" and began trading as TLC Nails, Beauty & Hair.
I am now full-time at TLC Nails Beauty & Hair to ensure that we continue to provide a high quality service. I also regularly attend beauty shows and read industry related magazines to keep up-to-date with current trends and new products.
