    Wedding nails ideas

    One of clients is getting married next year, and wants something different. She's doesn't like French, but I am having a mental loss as to what she'd like as I've only ever done French for a wedding.

    Waxing pierced brows?

    Had a girl ask me yesterday if she were to get her brows waxed, does she take her eyebrow bar out? The way her hair grew I could easily wax around it. She was worried if she took the bar out wax would get in the pierced hole. Thoughts?

    Misleading salons

    I'm in Australia and I am bio trained. I had a girl come into the salon yesterday (I've seen her several times before) for bio refills.
