OUR STORY

TGB Academy began with a simple belief: every nail tech deserves the chance to succeed with the right training and support.

In 2015, founder Daisy Kalnina launched The GelBottle Inc. As a salon owner, she saw how outdated training and lack of business guidance were holding talented artists back.

By 2017, TGB Academy was created to change that. Starting with just a few classes and passionate educators, it quickly grew as techs looked for modern, creative, and career-focused education.

Since then, we’ve trained thousands of artists, from beginners to salon owners, across the UK and beyond. Our courses blend advanced nail techniques with real business know-how, helping you grow with confidence.

We’re here to raise the standard of nail education — and we’re just getting started.
