Hiya Louise, Long time no speak ! If you have your meeting anywhere local ie Leeds, (which would only be a 20 min drive) then count me in kid ! I have certain commitments tues-thurs, but any other day I might well be able to make it ! See ya soon, Love Sammy G :lol:

There is nothing more rewarding than when a client who returns to you for maintenance ,and requires very little work. As Gigi has pointed out clients know a good nail tech from the bad ones. They also remember how long their nails have lasted and will return time after time. If you are serious...

Hi All, Had a new client come for a gel nail repair last night. Used the Brisa gel & was very pleased with the result although there was a definite difference in colour. She asked if I could do her rebalance due next week ? The original set was done by another salon who used Bio Sculpture. Am...

Hi Everyone, Did my first set of Brisa Gels on a new client on Saturday & after worrying myself stupid the night before was really pleased with the result! Although the set took me 1hr & 45 mins, normally would complete set of L & P in 1 hr 20 mins, but guess the more confident I become with...

Thankyou, I really appreciate all your advice, I will take these comments on board & give them a go! It really does mean a lot to me to know that I can ask for advice & always get a good response. This site is really one fantastic idea, and being a nail tech is no longer a lonely...

Thanks Fiona, For your words of advice, I will certainly try the clear tips a I am sure this will help ! Do you still thin the tip out & blend ?? The last set of nails done on a nail biter did actually have a free edge therefore didnt require me to saddle the sides of the tip, although not...

Help !!! Having huge problem with L&P on nail biters. Can anyone offer any advice at all as Im feeling pretty fed up at the mo! I have been a nail tech for over 3 yrs now, but always seem to have a problem with nail biters? Whenever I have applied the tip & acrylic the nail always tends to...

Hi They look darn good to me ! Would be interested to know did you sculpt using the forms or did you apply clear tips. I also purchased a kit at Olympia and have only had a dabble twice, but find the White gel difficult to apply evenly !! ;)

Hi there, I too have problems with sinuses and of late is getting worse. I must admit have never associated it with L & P so would be interesting so see if anybody else suffers ? Have been using L & P for 4 yrs now and only suffer on & off, therefore wouldnt have thought it could be connected...

Ruth, They are stunning, you deserved to win. Fancy a stab at competitions myself, maybe next year ! Would you mind passing a few tricks of the trade my way ??? Well Done

Hi , Dont lose faith & never give up.!! Since I started using cuticle remover instead of cuticle eraser I have had much better results! Also ensure your Koala/Kanga dont need to be replaced, I find them much more effective when new, then scrub the nail plate with scrubfresh very thoroughly...

Hi all, Sorry, was very much looking forward to meeting up with you all on Wednesday, but now looks like I am going to have to fit a client in at 6pm, & wont get to you in time. If you all meet again, would somebody please let me know, & I will try again !!!! :cry:

Hi, I find this an interesting subject as many new clients ask the same question. My brothers partner is also a beauty therapist & admits to telling her clients that nail extensions are bad for your nails!! This is mainly because she doesnt know any different & doesnt have time to offer this...

Well, now that youve asked !!!! To double my profits on last year of course!!!! To get my name out there among potential clients as a great nail tech! Have one 2 one tuition with either Sam or Diane, Practise,practise & more practise & to get rid of those blasted tine air bubbles in zone...

Hi Seph, I had this problem in the early days so dont give up hope like I nearly did !! a) Firstly ensure the nail plate is clear of any oils etc, then apply your Su-do base coat & allow to dry. b) You may find that you are applying your paint too thickly so check this & your distance of your...

Just a little note from me to say..... Well Done !!!!!!!! I was there on the day & had a fantastic day out!!! Would love to enter a competition but just do not have the courage. Dont know if I could handle any critisism. Maybe I should have a few one 2 ones with Samuel or Diane P &...
