    Kiara Sky/SNS/Cuccio/Gelish, which brand is best?

    Hi Guys A few of my clients have been asking about wanting to try a nail dip system (I currently just offer Biosculpture gel). After a lot of googling, "Kiara Sky" and "SNS" seem to be coming up most often, and I'm slightly leaning towards Kiara Sky. I was wondering if anyone out there has...

    Long-term use of Olaplex & Colorphlex

    So based on what you've said I can conclude that at worst clients might not experience a big difference, but at best, if a client uses it and decides to incorporate it into their list of regular treatments, it's not going to cause additional breakage after continued use (like a silcone...

    Long-term use of Olaplex & Colorphlex

    Hi There Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question (or has been covered before)! Firstly, ignoring the debates about which is better (a tricky subject I know), working on the assumption that both products improve the visual health of the hair, are these treatments actually "good" for...

    What Shellac Colours shall I start with?

    Hi, I did that on both the forum search, and in the shellac group, and these are the only ones I can find, Which are more suggestions/"I likes" rather than what colours are genuinely the most popular (which is what I'm looking for)...

    Mystery Nail complaint

    Thanks for all your help guys, I really appreciate it!!! I only do manicures part time, and virtually all my clients are regulars, so I think I lead a very sheltered life when it comes to manicures! I'm going to do a bit of reading on potential problems (my training was way back so I could...

    Mystery Nail complaint

    Thanks for the information guys :) Just had a look online and it looks like Onycholosis as the nail plate is lifting away from the bed. My client already keeps her nails really short (simply because she likes the look), so it wouldn't really be an option to cut them shorter. What would be the...

    Mystery Skin Complaint - Multiple tiny whiteheads

    Hey there Thanks for your response, I've seen similar info on the web regarding this, but it's not quite what I have. The white "points" are actually poking out of my skin rather than trapped underneath it, they appear to be coming out where my hair follicles are. Thanks x

    Mystery Skin Complaint - Multiple tiny whiteheads

    Hello All I was looking for a little bit of professional advice. I have searched all over the web and can sadly not find an answer to my question. I have always had very good skin, around 18 months ago I had a mirena coil fitted (which was for medical reason and not contraception, so it is...

    I was wondering if you guys can help! I've been doing Bio sculpture nails part time for the last year, and I'm very pleased with the results I'm getting. The only problem I'm having is with removal. The coloured overlays are no problem at all, a quick soak in acetone & they peel right off...

    Which are the thinnest tips?

    I was wondering if someone could give me some advice? I'm looking for some white, ultra thin tips, providing a nice C-Curve for french extensions. Ideally, i'd like tips without the ridge at the back (if available). I want to be able to apply the tips without the need to blend (or very...

    Tip guides of varying curvature?

    Its nice & easy really. Apply first coat of clear gel, cure, and wipe away residue. Stick tip guide to the nail (there's usually still a little tack left from the gel, which also helps). Paint on smile line, which is obviously nice and easy as you can go over the line (just don't paint it on...
