Maybe this would be useful for exposing the practices of NSS salons, and educating the public of the difference between ostensibly cheap NSS salons (with their dodgy products like MMA, poor hygiene and inappropriate techniques, e.g. misuse of e-files) and reputable salons using professional products with the appropriate training, working practices and insurance.

But will the public be informed about the differences between the NSS and the good salons? Or will we all be tarred with the same brush (This is usually the case)?

Well, if handled correctly, it would certainly be a good opportunity to put the record straight, and educate people that there's a world of difference between NSS with their MMA, poor hygiene and dodgy working practices and reputable salons using premium products with proper training.

It would be lovely to see this happen, but I agree that the media always seem to tar us all with the same brush. That's why so many of us Geeks have to educate our new clients every time, when they come in saying "well it's meant to hurt", "acrylics are bad for you" etc!

Come on guys, actually show the public the vast difference between the NSS salons and the quality salons!

I love Dom. I would marry him tomorrow lol!
