Before writing about the manicurist cover letters let us discuss about the important and techniques of writing cover letters and resumes. Writing a good resume is a challenging job. Sometimes, it is difficult to decide what to include and what not to include in the resume. The human resource department of the company receives hundreds of applications every year and it is difficult for them to screen all the applications and take a decision. You must take tips from professionals and get your resume checked before you send the resume along with the application.
(A resume includes the candidate's professional experience, education, and skills. A typical resume demonstrates how the candidate's skills and abilities and match with job requirements. A resume gives you a chance to sell yourself to the employer. There should be an endless list of which showcase in the resume. At the same time, it is also important for you to decide what are most pertinent job responsibilities and skills sets. Try and avoid some unnecessary information which may distract the reader (prospect employer).The best resumes are of two to three pages. There are three major parts of the resumes: reverse chronological, hybrid resumes, and functional resume. The functional resume focuses on the pertinent job responsibilities of the candidate and significant skills and abilities of the candidates. In the reverse chronological resume, the professional experience of the candidate is structured starting from the last assignment. The hybrid resume is the mix of both reverse chronological resume and functional resumes.) Make it short and try to compare it with cover letter.
The cover letter is the first official communication with the prospective employer. So, it is important for you to give your best impression. The cover letter is sent along with the job application while applying for a job. There three major types of cover letters: enquiry cover letter, application cover letter, and networking cover letter. The networking cover letter is written to gain some knowledge regarding job search. The enquiry cover letter is written to enquire about the job opening in any company. The application cover letter is written with response to job opportunities advertised in the newspaper or magazine.
A manicurist cover letter is a letter containing the talents and abilities of a manicurist. It should include how you became a manicurist, what manicurist qualifications you possess, what special manicurist qualities you have acquired that can be useful to the company etc. You should be of their best interest. In such job applications, you need to make your resume stand out. This is what the cover letter does. It emphasizes on your achievements, specialties, qualifications and education, thus impressing a very good image upon the recruiter. At a glance, he should know why to hire you and why to hire only you and not other job applicants. Try to answer every question of the recruiter in your article.
A few key points to be remembered while writing a cover letter:

Dear Sir/ Madam,
Subject: Application for the post of a manicurist
Reference: Advertisement in the Alabama Times
I recently came across an advertisement in the columns of the Alabama Times about the vacancy for the post of a manicurist. I have been working as a beautician for over five years now. I started specializing in giving manicures two years ago and have been exploring in the field further. I have several different styles of doing nails and I have had many satisfied clients. I have my own portfolio of the designs for nails that I have created. I will be obliged to come by and show them to you and do samples for you if necessary.
I passed out of Syracuse University in New York. I worked part time throughout college in Chez Spa where I developed the interest to become a manicurist. Since then, I have evolved to unprecedented levels and can now call myself a proficient manicurist. I can be of great use if you make the decision to hire me. I have freelanced for several different Spas and Beauty Parlors. I have had considerable work experience and I think I fit your job profile ideally.
I will be obliged if we could schedule a personal interview and discuss more details. I have no preconceptions regarding a probation period and will be happy to show you a few samples before you make your decision.
Thanking You
Yours sincerely
Shannon Cosgrove
