Silk wraps- which system to buy? - 14-07-08, 10:21 PM

Have 2 clients that want silk wrap overlays and wondered which system (brand) you recommend?

Also does the application vary from brand to brand, if so do they come with a full set of instructions?

What the going rate for a full set of silks?

Any advice gratefully received.

professional brands do not always come with insructions.
its always best to do a conversion course so you fully understand how to work with individual brands. most of the well known companies have a wrap system and are of good quality.
what brand did you use in your college?

Cheesy Thanks for your advice. - 15-07-08, 05:24 PM

Was at college about 20 years ago and cant remember which system we used, and I bet that a lot of the products have changed anyway.

Which brand do you use?

i used to work in a salon that used backscratchers fibre/silk though and also think the millenium system is good only i try not to buy anything from them as i have had bad customer service from them.

if its been a long time since you did them, i would think a one day conversion course would refresh your skills and give you the confidence of knowing you are doing everything right.
