    Have you stayed at this hotel - Alcudia?

    I would have to agree with Minkus - my sister stayed there a couple of years ago and it was chaotic, not my cup of tea at all but then the kids loved it! It's not the worst thing and loads of friendly people - just a bit too big impersonal and super busy for me.

    What parts could I spray on myself?

    Hi, I have managed to master the top half of my body - (well the front at least). During the winter that's all I ever did as I had tights on all the time. Your arms, face and chest are ok, just keep the gun at arms length but make sure you dont miss the under side of your arm. Htp and...

    I used to get a lot of queries for under 14's some as young as nine, I absolutely refuse to do them out of principal (even if the insurance did cover it).

    How do you all deal with ex's with your kids?

    Mmm, its such a tricky one especially when the man in question is not stepping up to the mark. For what it's worth here's my input. I have not seen my father since I was 13 and previous to that it was sporadic - he was a bit of a wide boy, popular with the ladies and always getting up to no...

    Young Nails?

    I don't use Young Nails as yet, however I did spend some time in Sparklybits salon and the ease of use and consistency of them and the results were fantastic, the clients were also repeat customers who seemed very happy with the results hth

    Your own nails when training at college

    Hi, I made this mistake on my first two courses, then someone mentioned that we were completely competent in the prep so we now just skip this part, I go with clear nail polish on which protects my nail but allows my partner to practice and then I just pop it off after class. No damage to nail...

    Jumping in at the deep end or wait to practice?

    Have to say Im with Kylieb on this one, I must have carried out approx 20 friends/family/neighbours. To be honest I was probably too cautious but it did help me iron out the "mistakes" and learn from them. It's amazing how your confidence will build. good luck

    Does anyone wear a mask whilst spray tanning?

    In your case I would most certainly wear a mask, I was fine until I had a chest infection last year, and I would say it made it worse. With ongoing respiritory problems please take good care. I think that's an excellent point in offering clients the options of nose plugs. I haven't done this...

    Nostalgia Question Sculpted Nails circa 79-82

    Geeks, I have a memory of my mum, and I need some help with it. I recall her having her nails sculpted when I was around 9 years old. I remember being fascinated by it and the very distinctive smell. I know it was not the smell of L&P that we use now, but I do remember the powder and the...

    TPTW ... Starting Up a Nail Business

    I have to be honest, when I left my well paid job and stressful career to spend more time with my family, I only saw the beauty business as something to top up my income when working part time. I decided on Spray Tanning and Nail Enhancements, and I admit I was only thinking of nails as...

    Really fed up, what can I do

    I have to post about my sister, she is the most supportive person in my life and I hope that I am the same with and to her. Don't get me wrong it wasn't always like this - long story for another time. It's just that it's made me realise how far we have come, I don't ever judge her and I know...

    Starting out - HND vs NVQs/SVQs

    Good Luck Tiny, I was in a similar situation but due to finances and being a big scardey cat I took the longer route - I went private for the spray tanning and college for the depilation and nails I am currently doing my HND in Nails at Commerce, and the great thing is it gave me some time to...
