This is also what I was taught, although i would say they are more guidelines than hard and fast “rules”. I have clients with almost see-through pale skin who take a 12% like a dream. I myself have freckly, pale skin and NEVER tan and a 12% looks awesome on me. I think if a client isn’t used...

I havnt heard of this! Definitely something I will look into, thank you

Window open is a good idea- why I havnt considered that I have no idea ‍♀️ I have very little overspray. I’m not concerned with clients I see less often, my main concern is with my regular clients who I see once every ten days or so and have done for around 6 months now. It’s happened over the...

Hi all, im wondering what other mobile spray tanners use to protect the clients homes from any over spray. I have an extraction fan which admittedly I do not use when im treating mobile clients, it stays in place at my home salon. I currently protect the area around the tent with towels and...

The decision is made during the consultation with ur client. Depends on how your client tans naturally, if they have regular tans or if it’s their first and what result they are wanting.

I patch test everything. Primer, adhesive, remover.... hell I even patch test the gel pads. Better safe than sorry... plus my insurance stipulates that I do this, and what the insurer wants, the insurer gets lol!

I would recommend looking and speaking to your insurance company. Each are different and will require different things from you. Personally I have to record my patch tests all on the same consultation form for each treatment. I am also ok to do multiple treatments on an individual consultation...

Hi, I attended the classic lash extension course in Manchester with the BBA. I was dreading it after hearing all the bad reviews but can honestly say the training was fantastic. Our group wasn’t too big and we had 4 trainers between us all so it really felt like we got 1-2-1 tutoring which was...

Yeah will give this a go along with the adhesives you mentioned. Thanks lv I’ll let u kno how I get on :-) x

Ooo really?? I’ve always thought the shine of the top coat would somehow effect the adhesion.... guess if the adhesive is good enough it won’t matter. I’ll give this a go thanking you x

Thank you lovely :-) I’ll look into both these things. Can I ask... do you apply these after the top coat or prior,, and then touch up around the embellishment with the top coat (as I currently do) xx

Phahahahaaaa!! Love this!! :-D

Yeah my insurance specifies gel polish qualified, which I also have as well as hard gel. I do wonder though, which category the “build-a-nail type gels” would sit under... I’ve seen they offer promotional advice and advertising when you complete one of their conversion courses, would be...

I put “glue” “adhere” “embellishments” in my search and it brought up 4 threads- the most recent being 2016! Hahaahaa 8-))! I dont mind scrolling though- some of the best tips and ideas are often hidden, sandwiched in a thread about lint-free pads!! Looool Thanks x

Hi all, I’m new to this forum although have been a lurker for a few months! Not found a recent thread on this topic in the search but really could do with some opinions on this... How does everyone attach their embellishments and gems to gel polish nails?? I’m fine when doing acrylics or hard...

Hi, I trained with nsi and use their attraction system. I believe they do a “discover kit” which includes all the necessary products in a smaller size (gives u enough for 40 sets I think!) so you can try them out n see how u get on. I’ve also used the Naio nails powders and max adhesion liquid...

Hi! I use NSI natural dura-tips. They have a tiny well but do require blending. Nsi shipping is super quick and not too expensive. Hope this helps! X

Sorry to jump on the band wagon a bit late but for those of you that have used this already would you recommend the Conversion Course that TGB offer or is it easy to get to grips with??? I’m trained in gel and L&p and I’d much rather spend the £209.00 conversion course fee on their products!

I use Halo and Gellux. Honestly if I was you I’d get the Halos!

Hi! What others have said and also cuticle remover also contains potassium hydroxide and trisodium phosphate so could irritate some skin types if left on too long.
