I have to say, I went mad at first and thought he was crazy BUT.... he is right in the sense that beauty or hair won't discuss their sectors on a nail site. At the end of the day, we are still NAIL Geeks, but there will also be SKIN geeks and maybe HAIR geeks too.

So after telling him it was a dumb-ass idea, I actually think once again... he may have nailed it and got it right!

I'll get used to the name in time, thanks for the hard work.
Does this mean that we can no longer have "nails only" days?

I don't like changes, but I do think, long term, this will prove to be a good one.

Don't know how long it'll take me to get used to Salon Geek instead of Nail Geek though

i liked it being the "nail geek" as there are so few nail only forum/sites, cant you rename it the nailgeek and just have one forum specifically for beauty, instead of changing the name
i will get used to it....i suppose lol

I like being a NAIL geek too, but ultimately it's all of us that make the site what it is...... I'm definitely still up for Nail Only Days!

There's negative thinking going on here, needlessly...

Instead of having to go to one forum to discuss beauty and come here to discuss nails it's now possible to do it all on one site with 2 very seperate forums under one umbrella, that's got to be better hasn't it?

We can still have Nails Only Days, it doesn't mean that anything has to change.

It just means that Geeks who are beauty therapists aswell as nail technicians have their own area for beauty/skin talk instead of it getting lost on the chitchat forum...

The Nail Geek still lives, but under its own heading.

Happy Geeking (NailGeek or SkinGeek)

I too thought about the nails only days and dont see it as a problem - all it means is that we discuss nails rather than posting in the chit chat forum, it doesnt stop those who post in the Skin forum, from posting.
