    Fibreglass/ Silks

    I didn't time it but I don't think it took me that long. I only did NNOs so no blending of tips. Next time I'll time myself. I agree they are a bit fiddly but I like stuff like that. Easier to do on other people (did my mums nails after) as you can use two sets of tweezers to get the fabric in...

    this is weird

    Me and my mum smell pipe smoke sometimes too. She's told me it's the one her grandad (my great grandad) used to smoke. He died before I was born but it's nice to know he's keeping an eye on us. My cat weirds me out sometimes though. He can be sat on the sofa then get up and be fixed on something...

    TPTW - Do you smack your children?

    I'm recently pregnant and I've always said that I would smack my kids if they were naughty. It never did me any harm. I reckon there wouldn't be half the bother with the kids out there if their parents had smacked them when they did something wrong. I'm not saying this to offend anyone who...

    Which nail book?

    I own a copy of the Complete Nail Technician and I have a copy of the Encyclopedia of Nails from the library. I like both but I'm happy with my choice to buy the Complete Tech.

    Just a quick question re Scratch???

    Hi Don't know if this will help but when I subscribed a few months ago I had to wait for my goodies too. I phoned them coz I'd got my mag and they said it's because they have to get them shipped from elsewhere (probably the suppliers) so that's why there's a delay.

    Nail Technology course - what does it involve?

    From what I understand you only have to produce evidence of one system for level 2. You may well get trained in 3 systems but only have to show you can do one. For level 3 you have to give evidence for l&p, gels and fibre/silk.

    I'm in training at the mo and when I see those posts it bugs me. I've got tonnes of books from the library as well as booklets from my course days. I've had to put in some serious homework for this course, people shouldn't expect it to be handed to them on a plate. I saw some posts on here the...

    Constructive Advice Or Unkind Criticism?

    Here, here If people don't want to get an honest answer they shouldn't ask the question. I'm fairly new to this business (still in training) and I value all info I can get to help me on my chosen path. It bugs me when people moan on about how tough something is just to get an ego boost. If you...

    Yucky feet

    I was on the tram on my way home from work yesterday and there was this woman sat opposite me. She had flip flops on and had really gross feet. I'm talking big patches of dry skin on her heels and long yellowing toenails that were all ragged at the ends. I bring this up because all I wanted to...
