    Nail polish display sticks don't stack!

    I just bought some cheap display sticks off eBay and when took a better look at them I noticed that the way they are built makes them stack really bad. I looked at a few others online (even the ones sold by harmony uk for Gelish) and they all look to be built the same... Anyone know of better...

    Am I making a huge mistake in buying these?

    I just made a deal with a fellow nail tech who is quitting to buy these two lamps from her. They are the only lamps I have seen here on the Iceberg that have adjustable timers and they even have a fan and sensors inside. I have been looking around the web and the only place I can find a similar...

    How to sculpt on colorpops?

    I want to use my colorpops to show off stiletto designs etc but I really have no idea how to sculpt on them! Do you try to put a form on them? Do you cut off the very tip to get the "flat" end off? Anyone done this?:eek:

    Lifting with Harmony Dry Armour

    Has anyone here had problems with lifting around the cuticle when using the LED Dry Armour top coat? I feel like if it even comes close to touching the natural nail at the sidewalls and cuticle area it will lift straight off.

    Biosculpture prices

    Hi geeks I am really interested in biosculpture and went today to the lady who distributes the products here in Iceland. She doesn't do any kind of conversion courses but she sat down and showed me the procedure and instructed me in how they should be used etc. I told her I would like to try...

    Harmony's pink soak-off artificial nail remover vs. green nail polish remover

    Hi geeks Was just by my suppliers to get some Soak-off solution (the pink one) but they were sold out and only had the green Nail Polish remover. She said it would work just as fine but I was just wondering whether anybody knew the strength difference in the two? The green one states as...

    Gelish foundation under GHG

    Hi geeks:) I'm training with Nail Harmony and when I got my Gelish soak off kit a while ago my trainer told me that i could use the gelish foundation gel instead of pro-bond under my hard gel. I thought it was strange to mix soft and hard gels but did what she said. I always used probond as...

    Gelish Brushes?

    Hi Geeks:) I've been wanting to post this a long time, only got to it now. I noticed straight away when I got my Gelish kit that the bristle lengths of the ph-bond, probond and foundation gel brushes are shorter than of for example the colors. I love this as it's better for scrubbing product...

    Question about gel viscosity

    I was in "class" the other day and my trainer was doing gelish on top of gel enhancements and we were watching. She used the clear builder gel to layer the tip before applying gelish. As asked if she could not use the normal clear gel since she only wanted a thin layer but she said that it would...

    Ordering products online

    Hi:) I live in Iceland and the selection of nail products here are really shameful! I am training now at a private salon using Nail Harmony products. There is no official product training available, only at salons or privately run beauty schools (so no CND for me:rolleyes:). I like the Nail...
