I'm going and I can't wait! I think I will just be going on the Sunday because I have to work on the Saturday which is slightly disappointing because many of the good speakers will be there on Saturday only, but other than that it should be good.
When I went last year there was a big focus on spray tans (as Im on the beauty side of things I looked more on that side so Im sorry I can't tell you much about the nails) and there were lots of promo girls walking around spray tanned in bikini's, we kept teasing my friend's husband because he could not look away!

I'm going both days. I have never been before and I'm looking forward to it. I'm a bit disappointed I can't stay for the Sunday arvo but I have to catch the plane back home.

I'm definately going On the Sunday as I have to work Saturday, it should be a fun day, I'm going with a couple of girls I did my nail tech studies with. It seems to be heavily influenced on the spa scene this year, so it should be interesting to see what new products they'll have this year.

karentriff, I got my entrance pass this week, so it shouldn't be too far off if you haven't got it yet. Sometimes they leave it til last minute, but I guarentee you'll get it before expo
