Well I do pre lighten with peroxide but although the grey is very thick, she has overplucked over the years so am limited as to how many I can pluck. Do not want to over do it!! I will certainly try cutting the hair though! It makes sense!

Hi all, I have been working as a Beauty Therapist for 8 years now and have a client I really struggle with. She has an eyebrow tint every 2 weeks due to masses of grey hair. She's not what I would call an elderly client, off the top of my head I think shes 52?? Anyway, her natural hair is...

I use the buff off IBD gel and gave up on the bonder after being advised to do so by IBD and other nail techs. I have just started using the IBD intense ultra seal which clings very well to the nail without buffing first, have you tried that? x

I once had a clent who was very persistant that it could not possibly be gel I was using on her nails (on her 2nd infill app!), as her niece (currently studying beauty therapy), had informed her gel was a liquid and powder mixed, and only acrylics used UV lamp. She was concerned I was...

I previously had problems with lifting after using IBD with bonder. IBD told me to stop using the bonder and i have had no problems since (apart from 1). The 1 I have problems with lifting is also a hair dresser and it takes a life time to infill them if she leaves them over 2 weeks!!! My other...

Ok now I am confused. How do they work? I am assuming you mean semi-permanent lashes? I did false lash application at college but was always under the impression over the month your lashes fall and out and renew themselves. I do individual lash extensions which usually last a week to 2 weeks...

I have to say, I think they are shocking. Totally out of shape etc.. and I have to agree with the comments above!!!

Hi, I use it for manicures and agree with the above. The strengthener is fab. Really shiney and my cliens rave about it. The mango hand peel is fab too. Graet to introduce a lux mani if you use the hydrating trt too. I no its made by star nails but I do use a seperate poilsh range (mavala)...
