what tutorials would you like added to the site ? - 23-02-07, 10:51 AM

I was just thinking then , how I can add to the site , I'm going to try another tutorial , but it got me thinking
what tutorials do we actually want on the site ,
as there are lots of people on the forums at lots of stages ,from planning courses through to the great grand masters ,
we could come up with all sorts of new ones ,

so tell us , what would you like to see ?
and those who are able to do tutorials ..please add one xxx

or if you are unable to do a tutorial as such ,
maybe you could take pictures of stages you do wether it be manicure ,pedicure or enhancements , with an explanation of each stage , this will be useful for others if you are a highly experienced tech ,
or if you are having any problems ,and not sure why , maybe doing this can help other techs pick up on what you can do differently .
nobody will say "ooh you are doing that wrong" it will only be done in a helpful manner

most of us are probably visual learners, I know I am , and if I see it , I pick it up much quicker .

I'd like to see a rebalance with P & W but with pictures too!

That would be great!

I would like to see an in depth tutorial on polymerisation of L&P, and molecular structure of the product.

Also (even though I'm not a UV gel user) I would like to see a tutorial on the facts about using UV lamps with different gels. (If that makes sense!)

Yep I guess I'm going back to the science thing again.
But that's one of the things that interest me.

I'd like to see form fitting

I refuse to sculpt as the slightest seepage sends me into a right strop

Lots of people have showed me how to fit a form, and yes I can get it on but I never get a perfect fit. And if I do get it fitted well, I must press too hard as invariably it drops when I apply the product and I still get seepage.

I love sculpting, find it faster and more satisfying, but refuse to do it until I get it perfectly right

ooh id like to see polymeristaion too im sick to death of frikkin air bubbles
i have read and practiced all the advice that has been given me on here , but im still getting them
ive burped my brush to death , ive picked up beads in a million different ways ..ive counted , ive done going going gone ..ive placed it differently ive waited different amounts of time after placing before patting , ive patted ,pressed and blobbed ..and still looks like an attack of the areo bar

ive just been doing my version of a rebalance (hoping to pick up some tips when i post )
and the bubbles are a pain in the bum , i took pics so you can see what i mean ...

im loving this , i cant wait to see peoples replies ...its our site , lots of us are bored lately ..so lets make it what we want it .. only we can do it

ooh just to add ..Geeg's rebalance tutorial is brilliant , it was that that taught me how to do them ..we never even covered it in college , But it would be nice to see close up step by step piccies too ..we love our step by step pics lol ..
the more the better , we all find that where one person says something ,it doesnt click , then another can say it ,or show it differently and hey presto , its clicked xx

I personally am a huge fan of art tutorials (big surprise there, aye? )

But I'd also like to see a tut for uv gel application that shows the AMOUNT of gel on the brush, when it's applied.
To compare to my own application.
I still feel like I'm filing too much off

Sounds good to me. Also a gel rebalance tutorial would be good. Now who's going to tell me there already is one and I missed it?

Sorry Sandi must have missed that one!

Mind you, stupid of me to think that you could possibly not do this one! Eh Sandi?

Like Trinity, I'd also like form fitting with possibly some pics of how to pre-tailor the forms.


Also a P&W Gel rebalance using the sculpting gel as I usually use the POW and just cant get used to the scupting gel.

I've also had a couple of people suggest to me to do some art tuts, but I don't know which ones they'd want?
