    Changing from Retention+ to Radical...did I do the right thing?

    Hi all, Had a rebalance last night, the client's 2nd since being with me. All but 4 of her nails (sculpts) had broken off, only the tip of the scult coming off. The free edge of her natural nail remained and there was no cracks or lifting on the acrylic on her nail bed. The previous...

    Client nail breaking

    Hello all, I did a rebalance on one of my clients last night, all going fabulously until I came to the last finger on her left hand. As I was filing around the lifted area the nail broke off leaving a minimal amount of free edge. This is the third time this has happened to this finger nail...

    Pregnant Client

    I have a client who is nearly 10 weeks pregnant. She came for her two week rebalance last Friday which turned out to be a bit of a nightmare. Her pinks had a yellow tinge underneath them - could this be due to excess oils shes producing? She also had a lot more lifting than normal, which I put...

    Hi guys, just looking for a bit of hair colour advice. I am growing my hair out from a 'pob'.

    Tunics

    Can anyone recommend where I can buy a (cheap but cheerful!) tunic? Mine has been through the mill but I can't afford to spend masses on a new one. In a weird way I don't feel that confident doing nails unless i'm dressed the part and my sets never turn out that good if i'm not in uniform...
