    Spray tan lighter on one hand than the other!

    Just had a text from a client to confirm her next appointment.

    Tanned face

    Does anyone have any tips on helping a spray tan fade less quickly on the face (other than not washing :o) )? I just find that the first and second days it looks great and then it quickly fades whilst the rest of the body remains a lovely colour for atleast 7 days.

I had to try and support her as much...

    Eyebrow trend?

    A couple of times recently I have seen people getting their eyebrows bleached. Is this a new trend? Are you being asked to do it instead of tinting?

    The more I look into which wax system to use the more I fret! I learnt with both hot and warm wax (from the good old pot, applied with a spatula). There is just sooooo much choice now that I don't know what to go for. I have had people talk about the 'hygiene' factor with pot/spatula and as...

    Exfoliation/body brushing before waxing

    Do you waxing geeks exfoliate/body brush your client's legs before waxing? If so, are there any products that you would recommend that would work well in a home salon - that won't need showering off etc? I would just like to top and tail my treatments to make them a bit more special :) Thanks...
