FAQ
-
Who can register?

Competitors are divided into three levels: Debut, Professional, and Master.
-
How Does Registration and Payment Work?
Registration is done through an online form, where you select the categories you wish to compete in.
The entry fee can be paid via proforma invoice, which you will receive by email within 72 hours after completing your registration.
-
What is the difference between online and live categories?
In the online categories, competitors create their work at home and submit it as photos on a white background, along with a few process pictures. This allows nail artists from abroad to participate.
In the live categories, the work is created in the competition hall within a set time and under the supervision of judges. Here, not only the final result is evaluated but also the execution process itself.
Together, the competition offers a wide range of categories — from salon shapes to extreme styles and artistic disciplines — so every nail artist can find a challenge suited to her skill level.
-
How does judging work?
Judging is based on clearly defined criteria, including technical execution, cleanliness, aesthetic harmony, and creativity.
A key feature of our competition is the judging panel, which includes recognized experts from different countries, ensuring objectivity, fairness, and truly international evaluation standards.
