Thanks, got a chance to talk to her and unfortunately she doesn't do brisa!

Did that already, only a few are registered and only one within reasonable distance, and its inside a very expensive hotel/casino and its way out of my price range :(

Any brisa girls in las vegas? Desperate for a fill!

Thanks! It's just some freehand art done with regular acrylic paint.

Thanks guys. The bird was her request :P I used acrylic to build these out.

Here's one we haven't had yet..a toe transformation! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/buttpaste/Salon%20Stuff/Nails/IMG_0890.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/buttpaste/Salon%20Stuff/Nails/IMG_0892.jpg

Horrible! Who would a pink like that for french? Unless it was a request from the client to have a funky look...I don't get it. And you're right, her nails are gorgeous and look what that crap did to them, all lumpy and misshapen. Yuck!

Yeah..I have to really work the second coat to not have to do a third. but I will say this...no wrinkling whatsoever, even when trying to cover in 2 instead of 3 coats, so maybe they thinned the formula a bit to prevent that.

The new colors seem to really settle...more than the previous ones, in my opinion. The darker colors all seem a bit watered down. MOP is the worst for settling though. If it's chosen, I actually turn the bottle upside down while I'm prepping..then shake really well. You'll see a big difference.

I agree! I owned 4 different lamps before I bought the new CND UV Lamp..and it is BY FAR (SOOOO FAR), my favorite. It has features that no other lamp has and it actually cost 50% less than two of my other lamps. Get it..it's worth it. If I used products other than CND, I'd be tempted to use the...

I had a girl a few years back that was pagan and wanted to do something festive but didn't celebrate Christmas..so we did The Nightmare before Christmas art on her nails. Just in case it gives you any ideas...here they are...

I called my distributor a month ago and put the new rack and the 6 open stock colors on "backorder" so that as soon as they came in, they were shipped out to me. Not sure why they got them early, but I love them for it!

My business is 99% nails, but it's true, I don't want to discount my other abilities. I think I'm going to combine a few suggestions here and go with "Nail and Beauty Professional". Thanks everyone for all your help!!

I have Mother of Pearl already and it is much finer in Shellac, which I'm glad for because it was a bit too much glitter for most people in the polish. It can be used over any color as a third coat to add some sparkle :) I especially like it over the dark creams like rock royalty, decadence and...

I tell clients it's like a manicure on steroids! "It's like polish that is dry right away and lasts up to 2 weeks!" My conversations go something like that lol

Quick question, what is your preferred job title? Nail technician, manicurist, etc? I have been in the business over 9 years and am getting new business cards printed and I'm not sure what to go with. I am leaning heavily toward the understated "manicurist", although I do have a full cosmetology...

About a year for me as well. I think that's pretty normal for people who take good care of their brushes.But it used to be every few months in the beginning! lol

Her nails seemed normal. In fact, a lot of them had length to them and she only got the set because she broke a couple. I might be inclined to say it was the glue (backscratchers brush on resin) but it happened with forms too. Her honeymoon was in Rome..I had asked her that too, but no swimming...

No, the skin was normal, just the peeling nails. I've never seen this before.

I had a new client recently who had never had acrylic before, and got them for her wedding. After she got home from her honeymoon, she called to tell me she only had half left, the rest "fell off", and that the nails looked terrible underneath. So I went into the "Oh dear, how did that happen?"...
