Hi Selling my beautiful, professional electric spa couch / massage bed. Bought at the end of 2019, used for only 4 months before lockdown hit. It has been stored at my home salon so great condition. Selling very low price as require quick sale due to house move. PRICE: £350. Collection...

I've worked successfully from home, in my converted garage for 5 years. I'm currently on Maternity Leave, and wondering if renting it out would be an option? Its detached and separate from my house. I never did it when I had my last baby as I was too worried about who would be in there, and I...

I'm looking to change from Eve Taylor, can anyone recommend a similar brand that sells natural skincare products for professionals / salons? I've been looking at Neals Yard and Pink & Green, but would be interested to hear from anyone who already uses these brands? Or uses an alternative? Thanks

Not so much a question but more of a rant I suppose. One of my friends in an at home Bodyshop Consultant Manager and does VERY well from it. She recently recruited one of our friends. This is a friend who knows NOTHING about skincare, makeup and products. She decided she wanted to give it a...

Can anyone recommend any algae or jelly peel off masks? I used to use Casmara but I've been struggling to purchase them, Ellisons are always sold out. Thanks

I've been very successfully working from home for almost 4 years now. And for the first time, I'm starting to really miss having colleagues. I gain all my clients myself so never had a need to try and network with anyone else. I have no interest in becoming employed or taking on staff so I've...

I'm upgrading to an electric massage bed (ideally 2 motor so I can lift headrest easily as well as height) but I'm really struggling to select one. My budget is around £700 Any recommendations? Thanks

Sorry about the rant but I'm so sick of people turning up at my house unannounced and on my day off :rolleyes: I work from a studio in my garden (converted detached garage), I love my job, but man do I hate people showing up at my home. In the last 4 weeks, 3 people have come to my house either...

What do people think of Clinicare? I'm thinking of changing my skincare brand and I've already heard a lot about 4t Medical as their mesotherapy serums were recommended to me by another therapist. I'm interested in their peels as I currently only offer glycolic peel. Do you need to do training...

Hi I need recommendations for massage oil please. I have been using Eve Taylor Coconut light for 3.5 years which I love but become increasingly fed up with their minimum order amount, especially when they already charge for delivery. I started using Ellisons Grapeseed oil but I don't like how...

I've worked from my detached converted garage for 3 years. I purposefully don't have any signs so most of the time you'd never know I was in there, but over the last 6 months I've had terrible trouble with delivery men. One occasion a delivery guy almost banged the door down, whilst shouting...

I've recently stopped doing shellac, but I told my current nail clients that I'm continuing to do polish. One of my clients who usually has shellac on toes asked if she could come for pedicures instead and I said yes and that CND Vinylux lasts pretty well on toes. So its 5 days post pedicure...

Is it possible to stock a range such as Skinaid, Dermaquest, Medik8 etc when you work from home?? .....and it not cost thousands?? Or does anyone have any recommendations? I currently use Eve Taylor (which I love) for my aromatherapy facials and massage, but I'm venturing more into advanced...

One of my regular clients arrived for her monthly peel but told me she'd recently been prescribed medication which in turn meant that I couldn't do the treatment. I explained this to her and offered her a facial instead which she declined. I was very apologetic as I could see that she was very...

So its that time of year again. Today every single one of my clients arrived with a cold. Some of them pretend they didn't have a cold and others told me all about their coughs and runny noses as soon as they walked in! I actually state on my website that those who arrive with a cold will not...

I can't believe how many cancellations I've had over the past 3 weeks. Is it just because it's the summer / school holidays? I have a 24 hour cancellation policy in place and I take deposits, but most have contacted me 25 hours before asking for their deposit back o_O highly frustrating!! I...

I know there are quite a few active pregnancy threads but I specifically wanted to know how people have gotten on with working whilst pregnant. I'm a self employed therapist (mainly massage and facials but also nails and eye treatments). I'm very very early in to my pregnancy but I previously...

If you do nails, do you need to be able to do french finish? I'm just not that good at it! I don't get many people that ask for it but when they do I get so stressed out and I don't think it's worth the anxiety. I always feel bad charging for a treatment that isn't 100%. I always seem to get...

Is there is specific way to clean tint brushes in-between clients or do people use disposables?

Thought I'd share the results of a short course of Glycolic skin peels and led light therapy. This is my skin. I've been having trouble with it for the past 5 - 6 months, mainly due to medical issues and hormones. At first I thought I had a rash as it was all over my back, chest and face ...I...
