Hi i have just brought your book it's fantastic i have read it 3 times and the improvent in the way the nail looks is unbelivable im so glad i found it thanks for writing it !! The only part i find a little confusing is the lower arch can you suggest any tips that already have lower arch provided ??

it clearly states in these kits that they are for the nail trainer only, and does not advise anywhere that you should practice on your own or anyone else during the training or using the products,

it also states that you are not competant until you have submitted your work, and have passed the course, not until then are you meant to go anywhere near a live one!!

once the course has been passed then you are free to gain insurance and do live clients

sorry but this topic riles me!! lol ( can you tell)

NO i do not use the products meant for the trainer on my client and futher more how dare you talk about me as if i am stupid i am a qualified beauty therapist and hairdresser and also trained to do acrylics with Denise Wright from NSI when i was at college you have riled me ! I asked for advice not a lecture !!

Reading this did sound like you did use the products that came with your home learn course....and there are many people who are doing that home learn course who would find lotus blossom's information very useful.

No-one has spoken to you like you are stupid and there was no lecture...just advise.

I know this is a bit off topic now, sorry. I see in your profile you use Alan Roy Acryllics. I went to the shop and it says its self leveling. I've seen that term for Gels before but how does it work with L&P? Do you need to work extremely wet?

hi well i make sure that it's all perfect myself so i couldn't say i have never used it really wet you still need to see the ball go smooth and shiney.. they are lovely to work with though and make a beautiful nail !! hope that helped a little

our plastic heads at school have real hair. as a matter of fact, everyone had to comb nits out of the hair and wash the head before it could be used *gags*
i believe the hair comes from china or india
