    Green nails - fungal and why?

    I lost my job in a salon over the "bacterial/fungal" debate... :sad: Stopped doing nails for nearly 2 years afterwards... This was not "one of those" or "budget" places either, this was a very high priced salon, that hd no care for the people they were treating what so ever, and when I refused...

    I don't want to use an electric drill!

    I wouldnt go near myself or anyone for that matter with an E-file until I was confident with my technique.. use a tip (un enhanced) on a piece of dowel, or a blutack finger and paractise those angles and pressure.. you can see by using a tip what you are doing wrong and where.. Im a reformed...

    1st 2nd 3rd set sculpted nails on a person's hand.

    ... agree with both OP's, what i will add is, your the technician so while its important to listen to the client, you also need to keep in mind the balance of the nail... I allow my clients to choose colours and shape, but as far as where the smile line is thats up to me.. keep going xx your...

    Much call for sculpted nails?

    Learn everything.. know everything.. DO everything! Keep one step ahead of the place (salon/tech) down the road.. ANYTHING that allows you to say "Yes i can do that for you" is surely worth it???:green:
