Rolleyes Magazine - 26-08-08, 11:40 PM

Are there any magazines out there in shops for nail Technicians?

If not, what is a good one to subscribe to and what do you like about it?

Prices would also help, I live in a small village so am looking for anything to keep me up to speed as I train and give me new ideas.

Scratch is the number one imo for nail professionals you have to subscribe for a year at a time.

Without a doubt Scratch magazine is the best imo. Its full of the latest trends, plenty of hint and tips and mini-tutorials. It gives all the professional gossip of the industry and is a good read from cover to cover. If you pick up a recent copy there will probably be a special offer of nail freebies if you subscribe for a year x

I have to agree with the other geeks, scratch magazine for sure. As far as I know there is no where other than a subscription you can get scratch but I could be wrong.

I remember reading on here that someone picks their copy up at their local newsagent. I haven't seen it in any shops here.

Scratch is a fab mag. It will give you all the news. However do you want to be just one of the crowd? You need to see this as "The " industry magazine but be aware that all other therapists read it too. Take your business a level further - be an indiidual - make sure your training is second to none - inspire designs.

This post makes no sense to me at all. Are you trying to push an alternative ??? Not a very subtle approach.

Scratch Magazine is the one for me.... I havn't come across any other alternative..... Nails are the main focus and not just a little add on leaflet type mag that falls out of an industry beauty magazine....To me it is "THE" industry Magazine for those that are in the Nail Industry.
I am not intersted in anything other than NAILS so if thats what your after, then you wont go far wrong with a good SCRATCH and a cuppa.
