    Lash extensions: not for me?

    Hi, I'm hoping a pro can tell me if it is time to give up. I recently started getting lash extensions. I loved them but they only look good for about a week. I follow the after care to a tee and am super careful. After my first try, I went to a different salon for a fill. She was shocked how...

    Hey Geeks Explain Your Avatars!

    I have long wondered this.... Why did you choose your avatar? What does it tell us about you? I mean other than the seasonal ones that change about. I remember avatars above all else, when someone changes it, I am not sure who they are for a while. When I see avatars I wonder if the...

    Bio/Calgel STILL Lifting

    I know there are numerous threads already out there regarding lifting but I can't seem to get this fixed. I am using Bio Sculpture or Calgel (not in combination) and seem to have the same problem. About 10-12 days after applying a new french set, one or two corners (free edge) of gel lift or...

    Improvised Pedi Station?

    I just did a gel pedi on a friend at my house. I don't have a proper set up and am not in a position to buy a pedi station. My friend sat on my office desk chair and I alternated between sitting on a stool and on the floor. Needless to say, my back is quite stiff now. Any ideas for a comfortable...

    Nail File Hygiene

    I recently completed my training with Bio Sculpture (which was excellent!) and found out that the Ministry of Health (Canada) advises that emery boards cannot be adequately sanitised and therefore may not be reused. I believe this is a new regulation and was not covered in other training. I...

    Calgel - My Fault?

I am finding that my overlays seem to last very well for 2 weeks and then start to be problematic. When I used to get my nails done with Calgel or Bio, they easily lasted 3 weeks. If my technique...
