Introduction
Introduction (LSI Quadrant I):
Airbrushing is a popular technique that many of you have probably used. How about a show of
hands from those who have had airbrushing on their nails or seen this service done in a nail
salon. (Many will raise their hands, if not all.) This is a technique that can be easily mastered
through regular practice. There are several important steps which must be completed for the
airbrushing service to look professional. We are going to discuss these steps now and then
practice with the airbrushing machine.

to give several quick blasts
onto a paper towel in order to
clear out old paint color
before applying a new color.
Instructor should discuss that
net cubes are shown off best
when applied with a light
color to a darker base color.
Point out to students that the
American manicure with a
white net cube design on it is
very popular for brides.
Instructor should explain to
students that once the sealer
is applied to the color, no
further airbrushing may take
place. Be careful to apply
only to the nail; then dry with
the airbrush. Color will wash
off the skin with soap and
water.
