New and Desperate!!!

[whitmore]

Hi

As you can see I'm new to the Nail Geek, loving all of yor helpfull advise. I am now needing some myself... help me pleeeease.
I done my training for fibre glass and Extreme with Backscratchers about 18 months a go and have been fine with everything. I also saw a lovely man, he was the national trainer for Millenium, at the NEC and he was demonstrating their acrylic. I brought the kit but to be fair i cant get the hang of it. The infils take me about 2 hours to do and i feel like throwing my files up in the air!
Sooooo, I have decided to try Gel. I think they look real natural and i lurve that shiney finish. One problem though, I am not sure on what system to train with. I work full time time so college is out of the question.
I would really like someone to point me in the right direction.
I live in Tamworth just out side of Birmingham if that's any help.

LOL

Hi Em,

Welcome to the site! I don't do gel myself bu this thread may be helpful:

What brand of gel do you use?

 

[MINKUS]

grafton do training on ibd they are in tamworth alternatively you have the fabarooney marco benito (creative Brisa) not too far away from you too !

Have a good look around before you decide, the professional nail show in sept would be good for you to have a look if you can make it (earls court london)

If not there is another show in manchester (gmex) in october.

You can see most of the big suppliers there doing demos etc.

good luck

[kittenclaws]

hi and welcome emma this site is very addictive and there is always someone to give great advice

 

[whitmore]

thanks for making me feel welcome. I have spent weeks reading all of your threads, advise and looking at your photo galleries and now i can join in with you all. Fan Dabby Doo. Im going to have a go at putting some photo's of my nail art in my gallery, got to figure out the digital camera first, well getting the pic's on my pc.
One question that i must ask is where do you get SCRUBFRESH from. You all seem to swear by it and i could do with some more lifting prevention.

LOL

its a creative product the distributor is designer nails - i personally can not live without it - whatever system i am using the prep is always the 'creative way' prep !!

NEVER EVER get lifting now

If i lived nearer to brimingham I'd train with Marco he is a really lovely friendly person and I bet you'd be thrilled with his tution.
