Thanks Bo... Do you just use it 'clean' or with remover? Xxx

Hi Geeks, I hope you're all okay? I've been doing gel nails (using Gellux) for a while now but am increasingly starting to notice something that is a) winding me up and b) getting me down!! Basically, I paint the gel on and have a perfect (to my eye anyway!) margin between the polish and the...

Thanks girls for replying and making me feel normal for being a tad annoyed!! ;) Pinkbunny28- what's micro pigmentation? I over plucked my eyebrows donkeys years ago and now they just don't grow so I have my answer on that front from you lovelies here! I have contemplated having them tattooed...

Hi Girls, I just wanted to see if I was being ridiculous by getting annoyed at this or not- I've contacted 2 therapists in my area with regards to having HD Brows done and wether it would actually be possible on my non-existent brows (but that's another thread!:lol:) and I haven't heard a...

Thanks so much lovely ladies! I will most definitely be 'you tubing' and practising these ready for having some funky nails soon!! :wink2:

Morning Geeks! I am absolutely loving the pictures of Rockstar nails that everyone posts on here but (and I apologise if I'm being thick!) is 'rockstar' an actual technique with special products or is it just a style using glitter??! Does that make sense?! I use Gellux products so if it...

Thankyou v much Tiggerlady! The thing is, she does pay for them at the moment (at a very reduced rate, but still..!) I just think she's now so used to me doing the repair for free that she's a bit blasé about them... And then makes me feel like its my fault something has happened.... Ie, "are...

Thanks Lacytree, that's a good idea, I'll try contacting Gellux and see what they say! In the meantime tho, does anyone have an aftercare leaflet that they wouldn't mind me having a look at please? I'd be really grateful and I promise I won't copy it- I just want an idea of what to include...

Hi Geeks, I'm after an aftercare leafelt or advice on what to include in one for Gel nails. I use Gellux so dont know if this makes a difference to any advice you give your clients? I have one client whos a good friend but i know for a fact that she desnt look after her nails at all after...

I had a client with incredibly short nails (so absolutely no free edge to seal) and her nails chipped frequently but now, they are a lot longer, stronger and in brilliant condition due to the regularly having gel nails applied (Gellux rather than Gelish but I'm making the assumption that the...

Yep, you do exactly the same and you'll definitely notice a difference with the easy- off base! Xxx

Thanks Hun, I'll pop to Capital and buy some Pink Whispers this week. I'm the same with regards to which base coat I use on clients- I have one lady who despite my best efforts, her nails just seem to chip and flake using the easy off base so I use the normal base for her and the easy off for...

Yeah, I did contemplate that but thought I'd ask first to see if anyone knew for definite before embarking on another 'wait and see' approach!! I'll give that a go tomorrow Dani04, thank you for replying xxx

Hi geeks, Do any if you know how to do Gellux nails so they are clear/ natural? My full time 'day' job requires that I have no colours on my nails but I don't want to stop wearing Gellux because its fantastic for protecting my nails. I've used one coat of base coat followed by one coat of...

Hiya, I do cuticle work, then file/ shape nails, and buff off the shine, then give the nails a clean (either just rubbing off with a flannel if no cuticle remover used but if I've had to use cuticle remover than I get the client to wash their hands to ensure its all off properly), then I use...

Hi, I've been using Gellux for a couple of months now and although I initially had a few issues with it, I now LOVE it and as a rule, have no problems with it at all. I use the easy off base which when you get used to the 'different' consistency and know how thick/ thin to apply it, it...

What base are you using? I bought the 'easy off' base and it truly was very easy off!!! As in, after only a couple of days my clients nails were lifting off completely, so I've reverted back to the original base and (touch wood) so far so good. HTH? ;)

Hi glitterbox81, Like I said, I didn't want to offend anyone so I'm sorry if I did offend you- I didn't meant for my post to sound like that at all.. I was just a bit shocked that this girl was purely doing the training as a one off to make money without being the slightest bit interested in...

Hi geeks, Firstly, I hope I don't offend anyone with this but I was just a bit shocked. Anyway, I went to do some training via Capital the other day and there was another girl there who I got talking to and asked her what it was she does (anticipatin a hair/ massage/ nails type response) and...
