Well geeks, you've got me at last. ive decided to throw in the towel.... and convert to creative. lol
Ive been a pinnacle girl since training but seeing as most of you are with creative and rave about it constantly I thought it was time to see what all the fuss was about. I do like pinnacle and would still reccomend it but I STILL have some lifting problems, even though I KNOW I am prepping properly. Im gonna book my course as soon as the info comes through my door and I can convince hubby that its worthwhile... wish me luck.

Good for you!
I often wonder what it's like for people who train and use one system and then change to another - do you go "ahhhh ive seen the light!!" anyway i wouldn't know as I chose Creative first after finding this site - because it seemed up there with the popular ones. before that i hadn't even heard of them - although I'd been using solar oil I didn't know who made it!
 
Good luck to you, hope you can get booked on one sooner than me!

I've booked for Nottingham this week and the next one not until Jan 2006:cry: , that means I've got ages n ages to wait. I'm sure it's gonna be the answer to my problems too tho.:D

Take care xx

Yes there is a little try me kit for under £10....just to let you have a little play...but might not be worth your while if you have to pay p&p...but I thought I would mention it......since you sound so keen.....:D
 
Hi tamimac,

If you are that keen, do the foundation course but the try me kit should be able to answer your problems. Creative traing is the best in my opinion, you could swear I'm on commission at the rate I go on about it :)

Good luck with it hun, it's brilliant!!

xxxx
 
I cannot justify or afford the foundation course as my technique is fine. ( I dont think i am kidding myself- Ive compared my work to others many many times) Its just a slight lifting problem Not all clients, just every so often. I think mainly I get fed up with only being able to find pinnacle in one place and as no one else seems to use it there is no one else to compare notes with. OOps gotta go. I have a client soon

i usually use nsi or ibd. Creative if im doing a coloured french. Creative are definitley the leaders where care of the natural nail is concerned which is SO IMPORTANT. what has gotten me really hooked also is the endless options in custom blending forever french to suit every client, and of course the wonderful technical support available on line.I feel creative certainly go the extra mile, and ALSO the artistic vision they have.:Love: good luck tamimac!
 
Brilliant !!!! I'm really excited for you. xx
