I am pleased with my education choice!” – Serena
“I learned so much and more at Obsession BA! It was such a fun course I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for the best education on the market! The kit you get is also amazing and tons of product!”– Ashley L.
“Obsession is a great place to learn and build your confidence.. Cera is very knowledgeable about nails, she doesn’t waste time it’s definitely a nail boot camp but she makes it fun and exciting. I love how being in her class feels so homey and she bakes goods every Sunday and spoils her students… I also love the fact she gives us a mini graduation after our final.” – Cheryl
“Her advanced nail course is cram packed full of essential knowledge. I loved going to classes every day and each one was a challenge yet I enjoyed it completely. She is a wonderful educator and beautiful person in general. So eager to help and boost you to your full potential and she knows her stuff! She gives you continued education and support and also continues to keep her own education and course content current. If you want to learn how to do nails RIGHT, Obsession is the place to do it!”– Ashley G.
“I graduated from what I thought was a reputable college about a year and a half ago from a nail technician program but I entered the industry without the knowledge I needed to succeed and lost my confidence entirely. I sought out Cera and Obsession Beauty Academy with the hope that she could help me one on one. I was not disappointed at all. She truly cares about her students, her clients and her business. Its amazing to meet someone with so much passion for the nail industry and who takes this career seriously. I am so thankful for her dedication and she takes the time to truly help. thank you so much!” – Autumn C. – full day one on one class
“I was fortunate enough to have trained with Cera. I learned invaluable experience in many areas such as nail history and structure, proper procedures to set myself up for success in a business, and of course the ins and outs of nails! Cera is very supportive and passionate about her work. She is always willing to teach you more that you want to learn. Thank you Cera to Improve my confidence – Mona I. – Acrylic level 1 & 2

* Esthetics is NOT a regulated trade in Alberta. This means ANYONE can provide education, no matter how poor or incomplete. OBA takes student education seriously and believes that anyone handling potentially hazardous chemicals with the publics safety at risk should have proper education.
