    Katherine Daniels

    Hi - Looking for any feedback/comments on Katherine Daniels skin care, in particular the training, how well products retail etc - I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with them but wanted to see what others think first.... I have looked at other brands - Dermalogica, Environ and Eve Taylor but feel...

    Discoloured nails, any advice?

    Hi - it looks like possibly two things from your picture; Onycholysis as it looks as though the nail plate is separating from the nail bed and then also a touch of 'greenie nail' or bacterial infection probably as bacteria has been able to get under the lifted nail - seeing her GP is a good idea X

    Nail certificate replacement

    I would contact the college and/or CND first. Also, did you provide a copy to your insurer, you could try them too?

    How to get waxing experience?

    Hi - I've just started NVQL2 in waxing and would like to add this to my treatments as soon as possible but want to feel ready when I do - could I ask for any recommendations of how you got your practice/experience - i.e. just waxed friends and family, and for how long before starting to charge...

    Nouveau SVS?

    Not too much info outcast the moment, it stands for speed, volume & style and can be applied in 45 mins by someone experienced but the main difference seems to be that they can last 6 - 8 weeks with no need for infills - launches at PB in Manchester mid Sept do we'll know more then. You can book...

    Employment law query

    My day job is in Human Resources, hoping to go FT with beauty next year.... My advice would be to contact ACAS, they provide free and confidential advice and are employment specialists so will be better placed to advise over the CAB. You can call them on 0300 123 1100 open 8 am to 8pm...

    Gel polish - CND

    Couldn't agree more - I trained at the London CND academy, not only was the training excellent the ongoing support has been great including a closed forum for all past students which has been invaluable for asking those odd questions you'll no doubt have starting out - good luck xx

    Salon name - industrial themes

    Sounds exciting! I'm not sure Overhaul does it for me, kinda suggests anyone going there is a bit knackered and in need of major changes/work - lol! Maybe something like Elemental Beauty, Beauty Factory or Beauty Works..... I think choosing a name for a business is the most stressful part - good...

    Lash lift disaster

    Hi - make sure you're using the right size shield as well, if the lashes are touching the lids you might need to use a larger shield? I would also recommend that you continue to use the pad on the lower lashes and then use a little tape on any loose hairs and don't be afraid to check a few times...

    Training

    I've just signed up with OMNI Beauty Academy in Surrey - they offer NVQ on really flexible terms I.e 2 days per week or evenings or weekends etc so really helpful if like me you already have a day job etc.... I've just completed brow shape and lash brow tinting with them - very impressed with...

    Eyebrow course

    I only looked into brows recently everyone raves about HD brows and I would have trained with them but thought the cost was extortionate - after lots of research decided to go with Billion Dollar Brows - good training at a realistic price, good marketing support and I liked their retail products...

    IBX

    If it's part of the normal Gelish process (sorry haven't used it) then I would say do exactly as you always do otherwise it may affect the treatment

    IBX

    No buffing required - apply after you have shaped nails, dry for 4 minutes either under heat bulb or drier, dab any excess then cure in your LED lamp for the same time as you cure your colour gel, cleanse - you do this twice then continue with your normal gel polish routine, IBX doesn't replace...
