I’ve seen nail techs in my local area designing their own press on nails and then selling them to clients as they cannot currently open up their salons for obvious reasons. Are any other nail techs on here doing this? Where did you buy your press on’s from?

I did offer to fix it but she couldn’t make that time

So I did a clients nails a week ago. She has just broken one today and has asked me to fix it before she goes away tomorrow. I politely said that I am fully booked this evening and then I have to dash straight out. I have said if she can get to me within the next 15 mins I can quickly get her in...

So over the past couple of years working full time as a nail tech, around 5 of my clients have been prone to the horrible ‘greenie’! I’ve been filing down the gel, putting a cleaner onto the nail plate and then continuing with the treatment and in my experience, they usually just grow out. But...

I'm going to up my prices from the 1st of November . When should I start putting signs up in my nail room to start pre warning my clients, now??

I have a very difficult client who is nasty , judgemental and makes me feel so uncomfortable to the point where I get anxious about her appointments. I have a good client base so not bothered about the loss of money from her. How do I go about losing her as a client without sounding horrible?

My gel keeps setting in my pot and my nail brushes also set and go rock hard. I make sure I don't put them near the lamp when it's on- What could be going wrong?! It's only the past couple of weeks this has happened. Could it be the heat?

Hi, One of my clients had pseudomonas (greenie) on their ring finger today. I just want to double check how you go about getting rid of them. Do you take the whole nail off, wipe it down with a nail cleaner and then can you reapply the nail like usual?

So I never usually cheat with nail art but I have to admit, I love the look of snowflake stickers on nails! I'm struggling to find any decent ones with a good stick! Nailtopia ones I usually use but are all sold out. Any suggestions...

I work from home and sometimes have parents bring their children with them to their nail appointments. I have just updated my public liability insurance and have been told that it does not cover the children who come with their parents. Do I send a text out to my clients explaining this? Not...

Sorry I have to disagree with you there. I've been a qualified nail tech for over 4 years now and have tried out plenty of expensive coloured gels, went onto bluesky last year and find it covers just as well as all of the others, no chips or fades and I've never had any complaints.

Has anybody used the bluesky SN range? Did it cover well or need a colour base coat underneath?

I have a client who comes to me every 2 weeks. She brings her two little boys along and their behaviour is atrocious! They fight, are rude, touch my property, go out of my nail room and try to look around my house and I just can't concerntrate. I tell them not to but I can't exactly raise my...
