    Rapid tan & normal developing tan?

    Hi all, I would like to know peoples' opinions on rapid developing tans vs normal tans you wash off after 8 hours. I seem to prefer offering rapid developing ones as opposed to normal because (from own personal experience as well) they always end up staining your bed sheets and pjs and rapid...

    Qualified in CND Shellac & other brands

    Hi, I'm recently qualified in Shellac and would like to also use other brands to enable choice. I wondered regarding insurance, would I be able to use other gel polish brands with my CND shellac qualification as it does include manicure. Thanks

    Shellac on colour pop wheel?

    Hi, I've recently trained in Shellac and I have a colour pop wheel I'd like to add colours too. I am aware base coat is not needed but regarding the top coat do I need to just buy a cheap topcoat suitable for LED lamps or do I use a non curing top coat? Sorry if I sound dim, just things are...

    Wax sensitivity

    Hi, Do people get many clients that are allergic to rosin or beeswax and would therefore benefit from Cristalline hot wax instead of, say, Euroblonde? I'm just wondering if cristalline is the best one to go with in case I did encounter someone with allergies to these. Has anyone got...

    Deo 500cc wax pot is awful

    Hi I bought a digital Deo 500cc wax heater and each time I have used it, it has let me down. The heater came with what appeared to be a scraper bar and I'd also purchased one off ebay before getting the heater, as I wasn't sure if it came with one when I ordered it. I also bought 2 separate...

    PR wax and Deo wax heater nightmare

    Hi, hope you can advise. I have a 500cc digital Deo wax heater and used PR intimate 4 today to wax a friend. I put the hot wax into an empty bucket which went into the wax heater. The bucket wasn't full of the hot wax, probably 2/3rds full. I set it at 55 degrees and used fast heat to get it...

    Doing a small amount of waxing

    Hi, I have a DEO 500cc wax pot and all the waxes I'm going to try. I'm practising on people at the moment and my stepdad wants his nostrils waxing. Am I able to only fill my wax pot a tiny bit so I can do this waxing for him? I'm not going to be getting through loads of wax at the moment. I...

    Metal spatulas

    Hi, I'm going to use metal spatulas for leg waxing. I will double dip with metal spatula to apply the first lot of wax but will then use wooden spatulas after I've started removing the wax. How many metal spatulas do you think I should have at any one time? I'm thinking 4? Thanks

    Hot wax decision

    Hi, I'm looking into the best hot and strip wax to start trying. I think I'd either use Berodin wax or Perron Rigot. My head is hurting after reading about each type of wax. I don't want to over complicate things though. I'm unsure about getting Euroblonde, intimate 4 or blue in PR. I'm also...

    Wax pot for practicing

    Hi, I'm going to initially be practicing waxing on family/friends following my waxing courses. I am looking at wax pots to buy and I'm mystified. Am I best getting a 200cc, 500cc while i'm just practicing? Would a 200cc be large enough for doing one hollywood or one full leg wax for example...

    PR wax heater or Deo heater

    Hi, I'm thinking about purchasing either PR wax heater or Deo one but would like to know which people prefer and if I can use a plug in timer with the PR one? I'm not going to fast heat my wax so only after a heater that I can connect to a plug in timer. Also, can you reheat wax the next day...

    Pre & post wax products

    Hi all, Hope you can advise. I would like to know if I should be looking at buying Perron Rigot specific pre & post wax products or whether I can, for example, get post wax refreshing gel and moisturiser from a cheaper brand which basically does the same job? Thanks

    Specialist waxing service - rent a room vs own salon?

    Hi all, I have not yet started up this business and would like advice on if it's most sensible to start out renting a room in order to build a client-base and see how it goes? Roughly what would I be looking to pay to rent a room each week/month with bills all in, for example? I feel it would...
