    If you can just wear any nondescript uniform there are plenty of sites out there where you can find something.

    I found these on google.

    You don't need 2 pairs of trousers or the jacket, don't bother getting it.
    The tunics, yes you'll need 2

    Did a course in scd last year, and doing the nail tech course this year! You dont need to buy the trousers..they're crap!! They dont have a waistband so are always falling down which make them too long n then your walking on the ends and they get destroyed and the zip broke on mine. Go to pennys for your trousers! You have to get the shoes, the tops, and i think they're might be a tabaird on the list aswell.u need all these. theres a fleece aswell which i do reccommed but you dont need to get if you really dont want to.
