    NVQ level 2 courses

    I’m looking at doing an NVQ level 2 in facials and skincare. I work full time so can’t be anything I have to spend days away from work for. Any recommendations on good providers?

    Can we talk chairs?

    I’m currently in the process of setting up my home salon and starting to think about chairs. I’m a bigger girl and something I’ve always worried about is the risk of breaking/damaging anything. I know I’m not alone in this so I want to ensure I have chairs able to withstand a larger weight. I’m...

    Body waxing inc. intimate training

    Hiya, I know not all wax is the same but is all wax training pretty much the same? As long as it’s accredited, is it good enough? Thank you

    Online dating?

    So, I've decided that after almost 4 years of being single, it's time for me to take the plunge and attempt to meet Mr Right! I have in the past tried Plenty of Fish which was really not my cup of tea and hence, I've been a bit put off for a few years. I'm considering joining a paid site...

    Price list help?

    Hi all, I hope this is ok to post. I have a price list drafted but I'm not sure if I'm charging too much. I don't want to undersell myself but at the same time, I don't want to be too expensive. I'm mobile and in Kent. Would any pros be willing to take a look for me? x

    Costs with being mobile?

    Hi geeks, I'm trying to work out a price list etc but have suddenly thought about the annual costs associated with running a car (fuel, tax, insurance, services & MOT). How does everyone else work this into their prices? x

    Princess pamper parties

    I'm not sure if this is in the correct place but I'm thinking about adding Princess Pamper Parties to my treatments for children's birthday parties. I have spoken to Salon Gold who have said as long as I get parental consent, regular nail polish is fine to offer. EDIT: They have just informed me...

    Naming my mobile business

    I thought I had a name but now I'm not so sure. I was going down the route of enhancing natural assets i.e. gel polish, lash lifts, tints etc rather than lash extensions etc. So I thought of Modest Beauty which I loved at first but now I'm not sure it's very good. What does everyone think?

    Frustrated with summer house set up problems!

    I've got a summer house in our back garden which is still in the process of being set up for me to use as my beauty room. Firstly, I've had 3 electricians come and take a look at it to quote for it to be set up to the house etc. None of the electricians got back to me. I have chased up 2 of...

    Hair thinning?

    I just want some advice really as I'm not sure this is normal?! I have been growing my hair, it is currently about bra strap length. It has always been thick and straight. However, I've recently started thinking that on the top of my head, the hair is much thinner. Is this normal? It feels more...

    Next steps

    Hi all, I posted on here a while ago to request advice on starting up. Well I now have insurance and have registered with HMRC. I have a name in mind which doesn't seem to already exist. What are the next steps I need to take? Can I just go ahead and start working? I have a summerhouse I will...

    Lash lift

    Hi all, Does anyone have any tips on doing a lash lift on yourself? I'm going to be attempting it this week for my holiday and apart from the obvious, only doing 1 eye at a time, I don't know what else will help? I'm qualified but have never done it on myself! Thanks x

    Split ends

    I hope this is in the right place. I haven't had my hair cut for a few months as I'm growing it and haven't got round to getting a new hairdresser yet, since changing my work hours. My hair is usually in pretty good condition, I rarely do anything with it, just let it dry naturally. I use hair...
