    Face treatments

    I’m still a bit dubious to do all face treatments and thought I’d start with eye treatments first so my clients can still wear a mask. I wanted to change how I do eyelash tints to make them more Covid safe and wondered what your thoughts were? Should I use a special cleanser on their eyes first...

    Yes I think I will refuse treatment without mask but I’m sure I’ll lose clients some of whom are friends but they should be thinking of my safety too! I hope your treatments go well, I totally understand your mixed feelings! And when I get negative comments from clients I feel like throwing it...

    Thanks for asking @Enchanting Beauty, how are you? I’m enjoying being back more than I thought but it’s physically tiring with the ppe and all the extras to remember are mentally tiring. Also people are moaning about wearing masks(I think it’s because it’s in their own home) I’ve had one say she...

    Is is just me or is anyone else hating being back at work?

    Hope you are feeling better, you have to do what’s right for you and I’m sure it’ll all work out. I’m starting back on Monday and I’m really nervous but will have to see how it goes. I haven’t even been to a shop yet so it’s a massive step, I don’t think clients have any idea of the mental...

    I can so understand how you’re feeling, it sounds like you’re doing an amazing job. I think we will make mistakes sometimes by touching something that isn’t clean, we can only do our best and it sounds like you’re very meticulous. I’m starting back on Monday, nervous and excited but not happy...

    So sorry you’ve had a bad day. Ive only just quickly read your post, can you wipe over your used tools and put them straight in to barbicide or I’ve bought a portable uv box and that I will put them straight in to and give them a zap so they are ready for the next client. I will also zap them...

    I was already with the guild and I’ve found their course brilliant, I used all their templates for my policy, risk assessments and consultation form! Good luck with everything

    Sorry you had such a difficult time, I’m starting next week. Spent the whole of yesterday messaging clients. I feel there’s so much to remember and it’s going to be mentally tiring! I’m mobile too and usually I store everything at my parents’ and I’ve spent lockdown with them so I’m moving back...

    Are any of you putting your prices up? I want to but I’m nervous about their reactions, I was thinking £2 per treatment

    A client messaged me to say we can’t do facial treatments (I wasn’t planning to anyway) But she knew before me, how crazy is that

    A July return!

    Mobile therapists, what do you think of these portable UVC led sterilising boxes? Do you think cleaning nail tools and then putting them in here before and after treatments would be a high enough standard for clients.

    A July return!

    I thought they were saying all facials were not safe to do: Facial Treatments Does the treatment involve working in the highest risk zone for more than half the time of the treatment? Yes If Yes, Can the treatment be modified to spend less than half the time in the highest risk zone? No...
