    First client wanting money back

    where in the world is that disclaimer??? i would love to have copies to hand out, as potential clients are coming to my salon and never returning on time for rebalances or not returning at all and obviously thinking that the enhancements are a "life-long" and permanent solution to natural nail...

    using CND perfect color and solarnail powders

    i was rather thinking that...i had been playing around with both, and i found that using solarnail powders with retention seemed to make the product kind of slide around on the nail plate and not adhere properly.....and it took longer to work with.....i did find, however, that using the perfect...

    Hi, I'll be with you in just one second.... next thing you know, its a few hours

    how do you weed out the non-professionals? i have logged on to CND, OPI, and other nail sites around the WWW.......the point i'm trying to make is that when you have certain forums and information on sites like this, i.e., different acrylic systems, the way they're used, MSDS...

    creative techs a ???? for you

    to be honest, i used Creative on several of my clients for the purpose that the nails would last longer since i was in transition from one job to another......well the move (opened my own salon) actually took longer than planned, so although it has been about six weeks since i'd seen some of...

    help with ratios

    thanks guys.....the main reason i was asking was that i know that glitter can have a tendency to be a little heavy if too much is used, and although i probably would have gotten near the result i wanted with the color of the glitter used, i was afraid i could make the nails off-balance.....but...

    feeling a little in the dumps

    Thank You Both So Much! one of the main reasons i didn't respond to the job offer was that the owner really didn't know what products were used to do nails.......she could show me her full line of OPI pedicuring, but she actually had no idea other than backscratchers (which she uses) what was...

    nail art

    you know, that's what i was thinking, but you know how you sometimes get clients with specific requests and it's kinda hard changing their minds or going off the path that they have laid before you.....for some reason i don't think she's going to be a problem, but sometimes their image or...

    nail art

    honestly i think she just wants the art on one finger each hand.....what gets me is the fact that the NSS salon she went to had no idea as to how to shape her enhancements, so i have absolutely nothing to work with....in other words, the nails are totally off-balance...the tips are halfway down...
