    Help with one client

    Hi guys I am having problems with a lady who is coming to me regularly for a Hollywood. She is in absolute agony. I only use hot wax with a pre wax oil, only wax small areas at a time and put pressure on the area straight after removing wax. I know it's never going to be completely painless...

    Trialing gel polishes

    Hi Through reading lots of posts on what's the best gel polish it sounds like a lot of people trial different brands. Do you just use your original lamp when doing this? How do you know what curing times etc. I have bought a couple of different brands to test but I am worried about trailing...

    Battling really poor lighting

    Hello I am really struggling with lighting in my treatment room in the evening. I have a tall day light lamp but I have to keep moving it round the bed mid treatment to see what I am doing and it doesn't really help. If I am doing brows the light shines on one and I can't see them both together...

    Christmas retail

    Nails, facials, waxing, brows, lashes, massage. Do you know what companies do retail items for salons. I see Ellisons have a few things. I use CND products but I feel they are a bit too expensive for little stocking fillers. Xx
