Tammy Taylor acrylics are my fave. Her traditional is awesome and the odorless is excellent. Her training is excellent as well. I also really like and OPI's clarite'/absolute lines. I used creative years ago. There is a creative product available at Salley's beauty supply in the U.S. that is...

Hi Kimmy, My # 1 topcoat is TT's (tammy Taylors) "A-Z coats." Z coat for natural nails or polished acrylics. A coat for P&W with Z coat to give double protection. I also love "seche vite" but here in the US it can be bought otc at regular stores so I am not useing it as much. "Out the door"...

Here are the highlihgts of my story: :) I graduated from college with a degree in dance and musical theater. I decided to go to cosmetology school in case I was ever too fat, too old or too stiff to perform and teach. 8) I ran my performing arts studio at night and weekends, did...

:D I love your work! Thanks for sharing! Blessings! BrendaLee

:D You go, girl! You are really jammin' with the designs. Keep posting pix! Post over at beauytech too!

:oops: I am so glad you posted this. I have several days per month when I polish like a 5 yr old! It feels like a curse! It is hilarious to me as well as embarrassing! thanks for your honesty! BrendaLee

Tips and overlays the most. I am way too persnickety with my sculpts. I drive myself nuts with them becuase I want them to be perfect! I take them so personally that if someone comes back with a broken nail due to carelessnes, I get a bit "hankity!" "You broke my beautiful sculpt?!!!!"...

But I do want you to know my daughter also does this with her dolls. I spent lots of time in NYC when I was a young, beautiful, singer/dancer/actress and you all would probobly be aghast at how many dogs are "spruced up" and walking the streets with their owners or pro. dog walkers. Now, our...

:oops: Should I be embarrassed? :D My 12 yr old polishes her Golden Retriever "Goldilocks" nails everytime she gets groomed at the doggie beauty salon we take her to. She leaves with a ribbon, a bandanna (my daughter selects these things) and whe she arrives home my daughter has her to sit...

:D Gail, are you still gonna put the little cute house on your own land near your home?

:) I sure hope that is the problem. It may be the tense-ness of my own hands, who knows but I sure will try everything suggested in this thread. I tell ya, my hands have been so sore I could barely do my own nails. My sets aren't turning out as nice either. I know it's because of Ole'...

:) I love your work! BrendaLee

self confidence to wear her nails like that. I'd never wear them. However, I admit, I find it very interesting and intrigueing whenever I see women who wear their nails longer than 2 1/2 inches. They seem to be self made Divas and they hold their heads high, never worried about what anyone...

I never mastered the "right" way, I guess. Edie in NC was the best help I'd ever gotten so far. I've invested a ton of money into nails so I'm gonna keep hope alive. Somebody out in cyber land: help us out! Please!! :?

When I first started suffering with this a year ago, I stopped doing nails for 2 months, let them rest and when I started up again, I tried to change my habits. I guess I have "blackslidden." Maybe you or someone can give me more details of what you mean. I'd appreciate any help. Thsnks...

Thats what I use. They are a bit pricey but no grits on the nails, can be sanitized & plopped in my barbicide, & ultimately re-used. They can be bought in block or file form. I'm sweet on the file form of the buffer becuase I can get into the cuticle area so much better. Barb(NC) has found an...

:( My basal joints are sooooooooooo sore. They had gotten better, now they seem to be super sore all the time again. The pain never truly left. My doctor says it's "basal joint arthritis." I take my glucosamine/chondroitin. Without them I could not bear the pain at all!!! It's not carpal...

:D I was truly the pitts when I first got my license in 1986 (or was it 85?) My magnetic attraction was attributable to my super-duper service-attitude, long massage, politeness, and perks. (like tea, coffee, danish, muffins) The nails I did then were soooooo thick, you'd have to do a...

"permanent" french with: EasyFlows boogie nights collection for the tips (the one I've been using is the dark pink/ fushia mix)and the pinkest pink of TT. I call it my "springtime pizazz"! If they are daring enough, I then put a thin coat of OTD glitter top coat over it. I enjoy painting...

:) Brings back many good memories. My youngest is now 8 years old. Her birthday was today. Your baby is so precious. An Angel. Enjoy this beautiful time in your life. Blessings!
