Job Description

Title

We are looking for passionate nail technicians to work and grow while mastering traditional Japanese nail techniques.

About Us

Japanese Nail is an international beauty company introducing the precision, artistry, and mindfulness of traditional Japanese nail care to Canada. Our philosophy is built on three pillars:

Excellence in technique -- we bring the meticulous craftsmanship of Japan's beauty culture. Technology innovation -- we integrate AI and innovative tools into modern nail care. Commitment to wellness -- our products and methods emphasize nail health, hygiene, and long-term beauty.
With salons designed to reflect the minimalist elegance of Japan, we provide an environment where every detail matters -- from the polish formula to the way each client is greeted. We believe nail care is more than a service; it's an art form that expresses personality and self-care.

Position Overview

We are currently seeking dedicated, detail-oriented Nail Technicians to join our flagship team in Toronto. This is a unique opportunity to work while learning authentic Japanese nail techniques, gaining access to exclusive training from certified Japanese instructors, and contributing to the launch of an innovative beauty brand in North America.

What We Offer

At Japanese Nail, we invest in your professional growth and creativity.

Our technicians enjoy:

Comprehensive, hands-on training in both traditional and modern Japanese nail systems, including natural nail care, soft-gel applications, and advanced art design. Competitive compensation, with base pay plus performance and client satisfaction bonuses. State-of-the-art salon facilities, equipped with Japanese-imported tools, sterilization systems, and ergonomically designed workstations. Career advancement opportunities, including team leadership, education, and R&D roles in our expanding Canadian network. Exclusive access to premium Japanese nail brands and in-house products developed by our research team. A creative, inclusive, and respectful workplace culture where artistic expression and attention to detail are celebrated. Employee discounts on all products, including our line of hand creams, gels, and nail health formulas.

Requirements

We are looking for individuals who are passionate about beauty, discipline, and innovation. Ideal candidates will have:

Certification as a nail technician (or currently enrolled in a certified program). A strong understanding of hygiene, sanitation, and safe salon practices. High attention to detail, patience, and a love for precision work. A genuine interest in Japanese culture, aesthetics, and craftsmanship. Creativity and a willingness to learn new methods and technologies. Previous experience in nail art or salon work (preferred but not required). Canadian citizen or permanent resident
All training will be provided, so enthusiasm and a growth mindset are more important than years of experience.

Work Environment

Our Toronto salon blends modern Japanese interior design with a calm, professional atmosphere. You'll be part of a supportive international team guided by Japanese educators who ensure every technician reaches mastery in quality and design.

Our clients are professionals, artists, and beauty enthusiasts who value clean beauty, mindfulness, and the harmony between health and style -- values deeply rooted in Japanese tradition.
