    E.Mi nail system

    I was wondering if anyone has any experience with their products? I found them at pro beauty and tired two of their builder gels. I liked what I tried but I know they have a ton of products. I did a search on here but can't find any mention of them. Hoping someone can provide some feedback.

    Hard gel viscosity variety

    One of the current brands I use only does medium viscosity gel. I want to change hard gel brands but, LE seems to be the only one I can find with a variety of viscosities. Can anyone recommend any brands that have runny, medium and thick hard gels?

    I am just wondering how you got experience? I am qualified but all the nail tech jobs I have seen require you to have experience. If you are a newbie, how on earth can you get experience?

    Gelly Fit

    Can anyone recommend this company? Their colours look lovely however they are rather pricey for the size bottle you get. Wondering if you feel it's worth it. Are they highly pigmented?

    Consultation forms and client record cards

    I am setting myself up to be work from home as well as being mobile. I was taught to use consultation forms. I never used record cards so just a little confused about which way to go. Which one do you use or do you use both?

    More than one brand?

    Do you use more than one and if so why? Lots of people I've seen seem to stick to one brand and one brand only. There are things I like from several brands so like to be able to mix it up.

    Hard gels similar to LE One Step?

    Now that Light Elegance doesn't have a UK stockist I was wondering if there are any hard gels which are similar to one step? I just love the viscosity for encapsulation. Other brands tend to be medium and upwards.

    Can any tell me how to prevent builder gels from crawling out their container? Even when I only tear away half of the foil, the gel stills manages to creep out. It's really annoying but I don't know what to do.
