    Silk and fibreglass no longer being taught

    I used it yesterday on one of my own nails! I think it's a really useful skill to have. Definitely a shame it's not being taught anymore

    Gel polish peeling on thumbs?

    My thumbs always go first. As Ciderella said, I use them to open things, pick at things etc. If I was one of my clients however, I would be reminding myself that we do not use our nails as tools!

    Lecente chromes

    I found this today when I did my sisters nails. Her biggest finger nail is the same size as my pinky nail. The brush was just far too big.

    Nail mail

    I ordered the new top coat, rainbow holographic powder and silver chrome.. I also wasn't going to either. But it was just too tempting!

    Migraines, A&E and the pill

    Oh Hun that's awful! Ok so what you can try is to put your hands and feet in hot water (don't burn yourself but as hot as you can comfortably stand) and an ice pack on the back of your neck. It's a bit of an awkward one to do, but if nothing else is helping!

    Scarring after wax burns

    The salon said aloe Vera and cold clothes to take the heat out, but the aloe just stung a huge amount. Unfortunately I was at a wedding over the weekend and I couldn't lift my arms. I also wouldn't dare put deodorant on so I'm probably going to be tagged in all the pictures as the stinky one...

    Scarring after wax burns

    Popped over from nails to seek some advice, Last Wednesday I had my underarms waxed and they were quite badly burnt. For nearly 2 days I had awful pain and they were hot and red, then the peeling started. I now have what is looking like the beginnings of scarring. Can anyone advise what to do...

    Migraines, A&E and the pill

    I had my daith pierced last December. Hasn't made a single bit of difference! The lady who pierced it said it works about half the time.. So could still be worth a try

    Waxing-how regular?

    If I remember rightly it took me a good year of waxing every 2 weeks before I could then stretch it to 3. My hair is so dark and coarse, and just seems to grow everywhere. I would love laser treatment but the idea of shaving in between treatments makes my skin itchy already. I say stick with...

    Online shopping

    ASOS! I'm also terrible on H&M, mostly because you don't have to pay there and then. Beware the bill a month later!

    Please help, I've stained a client's designer bag

    If I had a spare 5k the last thing I would spend it on is one bag! I have no other advice than what people have already said, I know it's a horrible situation but try not to let it get to you too much, at the end of the day accidents do happen. Good luck x

    Rant! Friend & family discounts

    My friends have all been really 'well behaved' in paying me full price. One of my best friends gets mates rates - in return she lets me use her selfridges employee discount. My sister never pays and she is the worst client going, she wriggles, changes her mind on colours half way through and...

    Migraines, A&E and the pill

    Just wanted to say, today I discovered putting deep freeze (the muscle gel) on my head during a migraine was amazing! I usually use those sticky cool patches or an ice pack. But today I tried this and I wish I had done it before. The only thing I would say is don't put it too near your eyes...
