Hey guys, Well my Nana is a very active member of the community, and she mentioned to her fellow committee members that I do nails, and one of them piped up and asked if I would do a demonstration for them. I told my Nana that I wouldn't feel confident doing it right now, and that I would...

Our Prime Minister is currently auctioning off his cast on our national auction site! His arm was broken at a charity event. The money is going to a good cause (off shore though, which seemed weird to me), but still a good cause. Our last PM wouldnt have thought to do something like this...

Hey guys, Today I tried to do some water marbling with nail polish, but it seemed to just set straight away and create a skin on the top of the water, which would just drag around the surface when I tried to marble it... Any ideas what I was doing wrong? I am thinking it could have...

Hey guys, and girls :) I have been trawling through the vids on YouTube getting some ideas about what else I can do with nails, and came across some that show inverted moulds in use. I love the idea of being able to create art so easily, but the look of a flat nail with no apex doesn't...

Hey guys, I thought some of you might be interested in this charitable website. What you have to do, is answer questions from a chosen catergory, and for each correct answer, 10 grains of rice get donated to starving people. From what I have heard this site is for real, so if you're like...

Well since I've been an unemployed nail tech, I have been doing my nails a bit, and have fallen into a habit of doing my application differently to any I have read thus far. The part I am talking about is my zone application. I normally do it in this order: zone 2, zone 1, zone 3 + apex...

Hey everyone :) First of all, I hope everyone had an awesome Xmas, and is all geared up for an even awesomer New Years! Well I've decided that its time that I just bite the bullet and start doing clients from home. So, I did some cute nails on myself to get some interest, so that should be...

Ok, so I was on another non-nail forum, and there was someone asking about her daughter who bites her nails, she is 10years old and so far she is leaning towards the suggestion of getting a set of acrylic nails on her! I have told her how much of a bad idea it is, and given her some info on...

Hey guys and girls :) I am wanting to do some more training, and eyelash tinting is on my list of 'to-dos' Just wanting to know if any male clients get this treatment? I was asking my partner if I could practice on him when I do training, and he said 'only if other males have it done' lol...

Hey guys and girls :) For a while I've had excema/dermititis around my hair line, and it causes quite bad dandruff in my hair. I am wanting to know if this is common? And how can I get rid of it? I am hoping to start a hairdressing course as soon as finances allow, so would like to have...
