ITV series wants you - 02-10-06, 10:21 AM


In the UK?
ITV is looking for up-front and witty hairdressers, stylists and beauticians
with lots of experience in the industry to spill the beans on their jobs both past and present.
If you have a funny or an outrageous story to tell about your working life,
we want to hear from you!
‘Trade secrets’ that make your job easier, treatments that averted disaster,
small talk with clients that took a racy turn – we’d love to hear it all.
Spill the beans to oliver.mann@granadamedia.com
or call 0207 633 2838 for a chat
(Don't reply to this post as i won't be checking it regularly!)

This is actually cool for anyone wanting to share their funny stories. Shame Nail Zoo isn't in the UK but it could still be fun to share your stories. I wish with all my heart they would do something on nails only and make it serious but fun so we could educate the public!!

Someone out there must have amusing anecdotes!!

I think the problem with this kind of thing is you never know how it will be edited and it could end up making nail techs look stupid and this is not what we want

Yep thats what I am thinking, and yes it may be a bit of fun to do, but will it bring us across as nail filing bimbos, who dont care what they get away with...Now personaly I don't take myself that serious, but I do take my job serious....and my luck I would end up on crime watch after this.

Nope thought about it and nope not gonna do it.... but hey I will offer to work behind the set and do everybody's nails lol.....

Hi guys update, spoke to Oliver himself today.... he understood my reasons for declining the invitation, bless him, but I did offer my services behind the scenes.... but he is still looking for willing Technicians, so if you think you would like to give it a bash, then email him....
Shame the series isn't about how fab Nail Technicians can be, I would have been there at the drop of a hat or nailfile......

Hey what about a Hell's Nail Salon....you know the Gordon Ramsey of the nail world .. now that would be fun..... the battle of the Techs, the grand price could be a kick butt Nail Salon for you to run.... Now thats something I for one would go for lol.....
Gigi would be a fab choice for the Role of the Grand Master in the Hell's Nail Salon.....
She would be just so brill to watch....Gigi what you think to that Huni xxx
