Please can anyone shed any light on this for me .... I have 2 clients that are hairdressers, they both have UV polish, I've tried Shellac, Gelish & ACG on them, and each system is not lasting even a week without starting to peel away from the free edge and the polish starts to feel softer...

Thanks RachelC...eyes are much better...had a piriton and it seems to have helped (phew!). I have spoken to Eyelure direct and they pointed me in 'Sally's direction So...I went to Sally's asking for the Eyelure range of lashes....the girl behind the counter told me Salon System lashes were...

Thanks for your help guys :lol: I had purchased 3 sets of Salon System pairs before I posted on Salongeek... I applied a pair yesterday using the adhesive enclosed with the eyelashes...pretty much instantly I had a reaction to them...not sure if it was the adhesive or the eyelashes. So...

Hey there fellow geeks... A few of my clients have been asking me if I'd put them some strip lashes on for Christmas events they have coming up, so wanted to ask.... ...which lashes would you rave about as being the best for ladies of 35-50yrs old that just want a bit more 'ooomph' in...

I really don't want to waste my basecoat...I have half of it left (larger size bottle) and it's gone thick and discoloured (yellowy) so I can't really apply it and use it....is this just natural wastage...it seems such a waste. Wasn't sure if there was anything I could do to remedy it :sad:

I use Shellac, Gelish & Artistic. It's just my personal opinion, but feel Artistic just has the edge over Gelish with regards to how it applies and covers and lasts.... but that's just my opinion. Saying that Artistic's 'Mocha Chino' is proving to be a 'rogue' and is wrinkling no matter how...

I really like Posh, it's a lovely sophisticated nude colour. It looks really classy, and I find my customers have chosen that for weddings instead of French. I think the colours that are in the photo all go well togeher too, as they are similar tones...so you can have 1 on your fingers and...

I've attached a photo link for some of Artistic colour gloss's neutral colours. I know when I'm trying to decide which Artistic colours to buy, I struggled to find examples painted on nails (and that's how I find it easiest to decide if I like a colour or not). From left to right the colours...

Thanks for the kind comment loza :D

Thanks chocolatepickle :D ...and I agree re. Salongeek! The colours I used on the French are all Shellac: Clearly pink for the 1st coat Cream Puff on the free edge Negligee over the top (That's my favourite combo :wink2:

Thanks for your thoughts and feedback :) I think after reading your reply and looking again at my pic, I remember now...I think the uneveness on the free edge is from finding there was a couple of nails that had a tiny bit of filed nail left on there after I'd shaped her nails, so maybe where...

I was the same...hence why it took me a few hours! lol.

I loved how the french looked, and the client was really pleased too, however, she said she felt it chipped more than when she has a colour....Hmmmm....anyone else had this (question mark).

I spent a few hours over the weekend creating my own 'Nails' facebook page ...be interested in your feedback and constructive critiscism :) Welcome to Facebook

Just had a quick squizz at your website, it's looking good, well done. Personally, I do like to see photo's of the nail tech's work on there too so as a prospective customer you can see the quality of the nails you'd get. :D

I'm gonna watch this space as I have the same issue. Fingers crossed some bright spark can help us :D

Hello fellow geeks, please can anyone enlighten me... When I'm applying Shellac base coat to a couple of my clients (not everyone) and it doesn't appear to adhere properly, it starts to get 'holes' in it ...as if the nail plate is oily (however I'm meticulous with my PEP) :confused: So...

I love it that my customers that used to have enhancements now prefer Shellac. I personally find it so much easier physically than doing l&p rebalances, I love that there is no smell & my ladies love to see their own nails growing each time we remove their shellac. I used to love doing...
