Nail Technician Resume — Frequently Asked Questions

What license do I need on a nail technician resume?

List your state or regional nail technician/cosmetology license number, as salons are legally required to verify it before hiring.

How do I showcase nail art skills without a portfolio section?

Add a link to an Instagram or portfolio page directly under your contact details — nail art is a visual skill that written bullet points alone cannot fully demonstrate.
