FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What the heck is non-strip wax??! What’s so great about this new generation of waxes anyway? A: You may have heard it referred to as hard wax, peelable wax, film wax or hot wax. Traditional hot wax is applied in a thick layer or built up over several layers, usually in a fiddly figure-of-eight pattern to ensure a thorough coating of all hairs. It is left to cool and harden on the skin and is then removed by hand, taking the hair with it. New generation non-strip waxes share these unique ‘shrink wrapping’ abilities but are lower in temperature, easier to apply and stay flexible as they cool, making them much more comfortable for the client and an ideal choice for removing short, coarse and stubborn hairs anywhere on the body. Q: I’ve never used non-strip waxes before, am I still welcome to attend? A: Yes, absolutely! The workshop is open to all qualified and student hair removal technicians, regardless of your level of experience, the brand you currently use or your preferred technique (strip wax, hot wax or sugaring). A full introduction to modern non-strip waxes will be provided, and there will be plenty of time to play with the products and practice your skills during the remainder of the workshop. Q: Does this workshop cover Brazilian waxing or male waxing techniques? A: No, although there will be an opportunity to discuss these techniques with fellow attendees. If any Geeks want to offer their husbands or boyfriends for demonstration purposes, however, I will gladly show a few basic techniques for the more commonly requested areas (backs and chests) to whet your appetite! ![]() Q: Can I bring a friend / colleague? A: Because these workshops get so busy, I'm afraid we have to restrict places to existing members of SalonGeek so that everyone who wants to attend is able to do so. Please PM me for details of alternative training dates. Q: Do I have to buy anything on the day? A: No. Leave your purse at home if you don’t believe me! Q: What’s in it for you? A: You can buy me a gin and tonic next time we meet. Q: What’s the catch? A: Oh ye of little faith More questions? I live to serve. Please PM me or post them here for all to see. Andy x |

I don't have any plans to come to Edinburgh this year as I try and rotate my visits around the UK, so Glasgow might be your best bet in the short term. There are no pre-requisites other than those mentioned in the first post, although I may be asking people to bring their waxpots with them (this isn't compulsory, but it will help). A crop of hair and willingness to wax is all I ask, lol! May main concern at the moment is seeing how many Geeks are interested, so that I can make a decision on whether we have a full or half-day workshop. So far, one vote for a full-day! Looking forward to meeting you all! Andy x |

Hi Guys
Just bumping this thread up for Andy (Axiom). Just to make you all aware Andy is going to great lengths to ensure you all have a fabulous day (or half day if that's what you decide). It's also worth noting again that Andy is traveling to Scotland and holding this class FREE OF CHARGE. He is forgoing his usual daily fee, traveling and accommodation expenses ALL FOR YOU GUYS. So, please buy into this concept.........if there is any other geeks out there who are interested in coming along then please, please, please reply to this thread and register your interest!!!! Don't be shy....... |
