I'm gonna have to think about driving down to Edinburgh. I work every Monday until 1pm so it would have to be a sunday and the next one isn't until mid August.....so it's a bit of a wait too. (no patience you see! :o). There was one at the Holiday Inn, Chapel Street, Aberdeen last Sunday. That...

Hi again. I've only just been looking found out about Minx....think I've been living in a cave! Haha. And only just realised I missed the demo in Aberdeen last weekend! Gutted! The Creative Nail Academy has closed down in Aberdeen (or at least so I've been told)....so yeah, quite a big...

I've only just decided today that I want to do Minx. :D Can anyone tell me where I can buy the kit? I am CND registered and in Scotland. Can anyone tell me where, how much etc.? Thanks in advance. Sherry. xx ;)

Hiya....did you do your course? I'm in Aberdeen and looking to do Minx...but the nearest may be Glasgow or Edinburgh. xx

Can anyone recommend a tip that requires little or no blending? One of my clients has a couple of 'hot spots' and I think that if I manage to apply non blend tips for a while (or forever) then her nails will be in much better condition. I'm not rough at blending but I think she's perhaps a...

Smoking has been banned in Scotland since March last year and as a smoker I agree with it. I have tried to stop 3 times in the past year but when I put on a stone and keep climbing I succumb and just can't handle being bigger than I normally am. Wot a wimp eh? However I gotta say, when on a...

:lol: - I had a reduction about 4 'n a half years ago and I gotta say it's the best thing I ever did - apart from having my kids. But saying that having my kids made my boobs resemble an old sock with a tangerine at the bottom so I just had to do something. They were a whopping 32H (don't get...

Hi girls, hope you're all doin fine? Now this may be a bit unproffesional but I don't do waxing yet......... (Aberdeen College has stopped doing nightclasses is depilation - miffed :( )....anyhoooooo. Many moons ago, the first and last time I got my bikini line waxed (ouch!!! :cry: ) the...

Hi, I know this is a Conversion post so I'll be brief. Yes I do all my prep thoroughly. I'm paranoid about that coz about a year ago a client go a fungus on her thumb........ still not 100% it was my fault though. So yes, I make sure all cuticles are pushed back, nail is buffed lightly...

Hi Kerrie-Anne, I had the same problem but managed to blag it! I passed my NVQ June 04 in Aberdeen and was told the same thing re. the Conversion Course. I explained I'd been training in Sculpts, Tips, Silk and Fibre for the last year etc and they asked me to get my College Lecturer to write...

Cheer! (Hooray!)

Hiya - no I didn't use cuticle remover on this occasion. Her cuticles were fine and I just pushed them back. Worried now as she's coming back tomorrow and I don't want the same thing to happen again. Should I just apply the acrylic thicker? S.x

Hiya, thanks for your reply. I normally do all my applications in Zone's 1,2 & 3. I will try and keep that tip in mind about the free edge. Why is it peeling at the Matrix edge though? Still flummoxed - don't make sense! Cheers, Sherry. x

Sallys have these - not just in Star Nails but another kind..... wosit called? Can't remember! White massive bottle, orange label. Not sure of the price but it's not well known but it should be reasonable enough. Cheers, Sherry.x

Oh and another thing I've just thot of.......am I complete twit? (Don't answer that!!) I'm just taking this completely for granted and don't laff...... it is okay to use L & P on overlays isn't it????? I'm gonna look a right plonker if it's gel. I don't do gel. Oh God! More wine...

I just adore dogs!!!! Every shape and size (except Poodles - don't know why!) I'm sure as all the other girls have said that your pooch being there would not be a problem. God bless the people who train these dogs to help you out - fascinating. I've got a Boxer pup called Smudge - she...

Hiya all! I need a bit of direction for a wee problem. :irked: I got a new client this week (hooray - always a good thing!) She wanted natural overlays and the occasional tip as her nails are very thin and break easily. So haste ye not - I obliged and told her to come on down and I'd do...

I've got 10 but I think that just coz I registered! ha ha - lucky me! S.x - thanks guys.

Me too! I probably don't have any coz I've not been doing this long enough. S.x

No but I really should be! I'm at that stage - that happens every January - when your combats don't fit as well as they should (i.e. tight across the thighs and bum) and I feel pig sick of myself. Didn't at the time I was guzzling into the kids' selection boxes and polishing off a tin of...
