Design notes

Across the top, five fingertips spread like a hand resting on a blush cushion, the middle one in cherry gel and highest, and each skill is lettered under its own nail. Below them come the title, the graduate's name in an elegant serif, the course in red and a short statement. A row with thin dividers holds the issue date, credential ID, duration, assessment and level, and two signatures frame a QR code for verification at the foot.

About

Nail Tech Certificate Template, Fingertip Fan Portrait

Salons and nail schools often hang their certificates in a narrow space beside the mirror or the reception desk, where a portrait sheet fits better than a wide one. This certificate of completion is for a graduate who has finished a nail technology course, with its hygiene and sanitation, manicure and pedicure, gel polish, acrylic extension and nail art training, and passed the hands-on practical assessment that most academies and brand trainers ask for.

Wording on the template“Completed 40 hours of supervised salon training and passed the practical assessment on live clients, showing safe, hygienic practice, careful client consultation and a lasting, professional finish to salon standard on every service, from nail preparation to the final top coat.”

Printing

Printing it well

Print at actual size

Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, so the margins and the QR code keep their size.

Use card, not paper

A matte or silk card of 200–300 gsm (about 80–110 lb cover) feels like an award and does not curl in a frame.

Frame it

A4 fits a standard 21 × 29.7 cm frame; US Letter fits an 8.5 × 11 in frame, or an 11 × 14 in frame with a mat. Hang it upright, as designed.

Mind the edges

Most home printers leave a thin white border. For a design that runs to the edge, use a print shop or your printer’s borderless setting.
