Hi geeks! I hope someone can help me. I took the kids sledging in the snow a couple of days ago, came home and took my shoes off... I have a crack on my big toe, where the hard skin is, not that I have much as I try and give myself regular pedis. I had a bath, got rid of what I thought was a...

Hi geeks, I've just seen some jobs advertised with a well known nail company based in London. I was thinking of applying for a part time position as I think I'd enjoy the buzz of it. The problem is, the salary is on application and you have to have interviews first etc to find out. At the...

Hi Geeks, I'm having a breast uplift and augmentation next week and was wondering if any skin geeks have any tips on any anti scarring creams that I could use once I've healed? I used bio oil with my c-section scar and it worked wonders but have any of you got any other products you can...

Hi! I would love to start offering popit nails as another service in the salon. I am practising and practising..... One out of about 5 nails always looks great but there must be something I am doing wrong as I still can't get it perfect! It's now starting to annoy me as I don't want to...

Hi! I have a client coming on Friday who currently has a bio nno. She phoned me really upset (tears and everything!)as she went to a local salon and had french with a red tip. I think it must have been a trainee or something as I haven't heard any horror stories from there before. She said...

Hi Geeks, I am fortunate to have a good friend that has just come back from hong kong and bought me back loads of nail magazines! I love the inspiration I get from these mags and constantly refer back to them.The mags are mostly Japanese ones and are quite expensive to buy in Hong Kong, but...

Hi! I have a really strange question (for no particular reason) that has been bugging me for months. I wonder if anyone could answer it for me! Many of us, including myself, protect mine and my families skin when out in the sun. I was wondering about those people who have been brought up...

Hi everyone. I have to get this off my chest. I have just been asked by a salon owner to give a nail tech some one to one in sculpting and smile lines as she was having difficultly in these areas. She has the NVQ2 and 3 from a local college and qualified a year ago. All her certificates are...

Hi everyone. I'm not a hair geek but thougt I'd see if anyone could give me some tips! My hair is shoulder length and for some stupid reason a few months ago, I had my hair permed.(My worst PMT mistake ever!) Not being a hairdresser, I loved the way my hair looked when tonged and thought it...

Hi geeks, I think I'm going mad! I have a disinfection question. Disinfection is used on hard surfaces to kill pathogens and bacteria for a limited period of time, but does it destroy spores? I was advised that it doesn't. Also, does Barbicide kill spores? I thought it did (or just reduce...

Hi, I'm a nail geek but not a hair one! My hair was straight but I recently had it permed - yes, permed! I loved it when I curled it and wanted a permenant result. I've not really got to grips with styling it yet. Can anyone recommend some good products for permed hair? Conditioning and...
