Hi Sorry for the long post but I'm desperate to get some leaflets printed and need some help. I've been doing nails but only part time since 2006. I gave up acrylic as I've had a few hand ops but have been doing shellac since it came out 6 years ago. I'm confident with my pricing for shellac...

I'm after some advice. I'm training at the moment so please bare with me. My daughter was a dark brown with very orange tint to roots and about 4 inches. She wanted to go to her natural colour getting rid of the orange tone and going light brown. She is a base 7. We done a bleach bath that...

Is there any lovely nail techs on here near Wickford that can help me out who have a spare bottle of topcoat that I can buy off them or replace with a bottle when mine comes. I'm in a bit of a pickle as have clients in tmrw and Tuesday and I haven't got enough topcoat as Friday night I used it...

I've got the cnd lamp but I've had it for a while and wanted to buy a new one. However since the release of the new led lamp all I've heard is bad reviews and I've been looking for a while. Nails chipping where they didn't before, certain colours not curing ie iced cappuccino and toes not...

Hi Im looking for some really bright neon pigment powders. I love the lecente ones but only want them for my teenage daughter so don't really want to pay over £40 for the set. Has anyone tried them from eBay or anywhere else that are really bright and as good as the lecente ones. Even if the...

If I use cnd brisa lite underneath shellac and use new express topcoat, how long does it take to soak off. I know it's only 5 mins with new topcoat but what about with extra cnd brisa lite. Thanks. X

Ok what with the busy time of year I forgot to order a new protein bond and have clients in that I use mani q natural nail gel underneath shellac. Ok is there anything else I can use that works. I have CND nail primer or the nail gel primer. Does anyone know if I can use either. Postage with...

ok I was just about to place an order for the new shellac colours as I have been off work for a hand operation and want to get them all ready for when Im back on 5th November. I do alot of Rockstar nails and I charge £3 extra for this. I was undecided whether I should order the Ltd Edt Ruby...

Well I have to say I have never seen this happen before that on the first day the new shellac colours go online they are sold out, think there is only one colour in stock. If only I could have ordered them this morning before work. I never expected them to sell out so quick. Anyone know when...

Hi all, sorry for the long post. I would like some advice so I know for the future. I have done bridal parties before but only for normal mani/pedi and offered 10% off. I have done brides and bridesmaids for shellac that come to me as I work from home but not as packages, actually going...

Hi all Im looking to purchase a soak off clear gel that I can put under shellac for clients that have peeling nails. I have a few clients where the shellac lasts about 1- 1.5 weeks and then chips because of their nails peeling or there nails breaking, so was thinking if I apply one or two...

Hi all Im just re-evaluating my price list and was just wondering how much people charge for scuplting a big toenail for someone that either doent have any toenail or has a little bit of toe nail. If you make a few toe nails for someone that doesnt have any toenail and wants to glue it on, on...

Thought I would start a thread for all those people who are disappointed that geekbay is not there anymore. It says due to problems. I check this group all of the time for bargains, and have never seen any problems. Why has it gone and will it be back. If we all say we want it back, it might...

Hi All I hope that you can shed some light on a problem that I have had. I done Rockstar shellac on myself, that was 4 weeks ago and all is well apart from maybe 3 nails seem to have lifted a little round the cuticle but this hasnt caused a problem for me. I normally wear shellac for 3-4...

Hi All Ok I trained with CND 4 years ago and think that it is fantastic, however I am having a few problems now and am in a pickle. I cant find my workbooks or my DVD's for L & P and Brisa. I moved 3 years ago and cant find it anywhere, I am so angry with myself I could scream as have...

Hi All Im sure that someone can give me some sound advice regarding CND Brisa Gel. Im having a few problems and very disheartened and dont know what to do next. I apologise for the long thread. I have recently done a natural nail overlay on a friend who I charged a discount rate, just...

ok, I have done a search but not actually found what im looking for. I have a client who cant wear shellac as she has peeling nails and the shellac chips. So was gonna suggest either 2 coats of brisa then shellac for a little added strength or brisa gel with polish over. I always find...

I have posted this yesterday morning in the shellac group but havent had any replies yet so am trying it here. I have one client that has peeling nails, and doesnt get as long as she had hoped. Was wondering if i could put a thin coat of brisa under the shellac base coat so hopefully it...

Hi all I have just had an arm operation, well a gangelion removed from my wrist. Im not sure when I will be fit to go back to work. I work for myself but dont want to turn my clients away, so have said that I will need 2 weeks off. Im thinking that this will be ok for my shellac clients but...

Would love to try minx but dont want to have to buy a new lamp because of the bulb. Was thinking that the minx bulb would fit in my table lamp that fixes to my table at the moment. It looks the same as the old minx lamp on s2. Does anyone know or would you be able to measure the circumference...
