    vicki peters nail prep..

    I'm sorry to disagree with you but prep is not prep. I thought that prep was prep by reading the tutorial and decided to give it a go with Scrubfresh and now all of my nails are lifting terribly. You should follow the directions TO A TEE according to the product brand that you use. And please...

    gobsmacked 100 grit file for etching the natural nail

    Well, so far I haven't gotten any proof from TT that 100 grit etch is ok and I haven't gotten any proof elsewhere that it is not. So I guess I will have to draw my own conclusions once I see the results of switching to a higher grit for the "etch" ie: shine removal. If I can get away with...

    gobsmacked 100 grit file for etching the natural nail

    Actually I am one step ahead of you and am already trying it :green: because I am open minded and what everyone has said about the 100 grit etching makes verbal sense. But there must be a reason why certain companies, not just Tammy Taylor are advising this. Could it just be that CND does not...

    Pedicure / Manicure??

    I call it a "winter pedicure saver". I let the client dry for about 15 minutes. Then I remove their disposable flip flops and toe separators and apply cuticle oil over all of the painted toe nails and then plastic wrap (cling wrap, the kind that you use in your kitchen to cover food). Then...

    Nail Polishes

    I love CND polishes but they no longer sell them locally :irked: so I am currently using OPI which I no longer care for because of their NEW huge brush :irked::irked:. I do hear that Tammy Taylor's polishes are lovely but I can't get them locally either and I like to see them in person before...

    Help Please!!

    When I first wanted to do nails, I went to every good reputable nail tech in town and got my nails done and I watched everything they did. Then I started practicing on my friends and family and myself. Then I purchased videos and watched them nonstop. Still to this day I am eager to learn as...

    Nail art for a 5 year old

    The cutest nail art I ever saw was a ladybug. You paint the whole nail red. Then you put a black line down the middle. Then you paint a black dome near the free edge and put little black dots on each side of the line you painted. Walaa, you have yourself a ladybug. It's adorable. If I can...

    How to do polka dots?

    I read on another site that someone used a paper clip. They unwound the paper clip and used the end of it. :green:

    New and needing help Please.

    I have to say that I definitely learned my lesson. When geeks tell you that you have to follow your recommendations for the system that you use, listen! Because I didn't and now I am paying the price. I use Tammy Taylor products which with her products you are not supposed to use any type of...

    Unsafe and Unsound and Utter Rubbish

    As I think most people know, the products mentioned in your post are a GENERIC product line. The products are not manufactured by TT but purchased and branded. No one is saying they are bad products but just ordinary, no advanced technology there, middle of the road type products that have seen...

    Which brush to buy?

    I asked this question a few weeks ago and lots of people answered. The majority told me to try the EZflow 508 and I am happy that I did. It's really all a matter of personal preference. I did not get to try one out before purchasing it like you so lucky you! If you liked the way it worked...

    Unsafe and Unsound and Utter Rubbish

    I agree, I have put off posting some questions that I wanted to ask for fear of being shot down. But I think that if you treat people with respect, it will come back to you. And if it doesn't, at least you were the better person. Maybe we can all learn from each other on this point. Now...
