Practice the exact content State puts on your Alaska nail technology exam. Mapped to the official topic breakdown below — no guessing, no generic Milady-style filler.
Direct from the Alaska Board of Barbers and Hairdressers and the State candidate bulletin.
Your SGS dashboard tracks your score in each of these categories so you know exactly where to study.
The tools students use every night in the 30 days before their test.
Alaska uses the State exam, which requires 75% or higher to pass. Practicing at least 10% above that on SGS mock exams is the sweet spot students who pass on the first try hit.
Alaska requires 12 training hours for nail technology, along with completing the State exam (written only). Minimum age is 16.
Every SGS practice question is mapped to the same topic categories State uses: Health, Safety, and Hygiene; Alaska Laws and Rules. Your progress dashboard shows which categories you're strong in and which need work before test day.

A common pitfall for Alaska candidates is underestimating the depth required for the Health, Safety, and Hygiene section. Many think they know the basics, but the exam goes beyond surface-level knowledge. Don't just memorize definitions; understand the practical application of infection control, chemical safety, and client protection. For example, don't just know what a disinfectant is, but understand its proper dilution ratios, contact times, and disposal methods specific to nail implements. Failing to grasp these detailed practical applications is a major reason candidates struggle with this highest-percentage category.
