I am about to invest in the starter kit and wondered what you are all charging to remove the shellac luxe?
Originally I didn't charge for shellac removals with reapplication but then I decided to charge £5 as it still took up my product and my time. I am about to invest in a few of the Luxe...
I just wanted to give a heads up to anyone who uses Treatwell. They changed my lead time from 24 hours to 30 minutes with no notice and also no way to change the lead time myself.
I didn't know this until today when I was in Tesco doing my weekly shop, packing the car I glance at my phone to...
Grab a cuppa, it's a long one.
My fiancé really is lovely and I know the things he says only come out of concern for me but sometimes I could wring his overprotective little neck, lol. He comes from a very negative family, the kind that call themselves realistic haha and he has been mugged more...
I am self employed and work as a beauty therapist from home. This was my first year in a new area so after outgoings I'm not bringing in more than my personal allowance.
Starting in January i took on a part time beauty therapist position in a hair salon doing 17 hours per week for minimum...
Hi Geeks and Geekettes,
Could i please get your advice on my cabin salon. What fire safety products do i need? I've been looking at so much information it's making my head spin.
Do i just need an extinguisher for electrical fires or should i also get and extinguisher for wood? Will one...
Hi geeks,
I'm setting up a cabin salon, which i'm sure some of you know from previous threads.
How long do those of you who work from home leave yourselves between treatments to take payments, rebook, clean up, and get ready for the next client? I think i will need more time than in a salon...

Hello Geeks,
I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me. I've been working out costings so i can work out my prices and i have no idea how many lash and brow tints i get out of a normal 15ml tube of tint.
I'm also wondering how many treatments you get out of a bottle of the peroxide...
Hiya Geeks,
As the title says, do you prefer digital or analogue wax pots?
I'm going to be purchasing two new pots soon and i can't decide what to go for. On one hand, it is generally the opinion that digital pots are more reliable but on the other hand analogue pots can be used with a...
Hello geeks,
As a lot of you are aware from my previous posts, i'm moving later in the year and starting up a new business. I'm looking into setting up Izettle, but do you need to have a business account or something like streamline to set this up or can you just set it up to your normal...
I'm starting up a cabin based beauty room in the new year and am trying to find some information on what you are required to have in regards to a fire extinguisher.
I've picked out a smoke alarm and was thinking of getting a CO2 extinguisher for my own piece of mind. Are they required though...
How do you ensure your cabin salon is secure from burglars?
I'm starting up in May/June 2015 and working on my cabin now. I've looked into collapsible lattice shutters, which look fantastic but quite expensive. So far, i think it's my best option. I have 3 windows and a door with window...
What do you do with your outdoor salons?
I have a side gate to the garden which leads to my cabin salon. Options i've considered are;
1. Do nothing. Let the client sort themselves out in case of rain.
2. Have a couple of personalised umbrellas in the salon so i can accompany them to...

Hey geeks,
I am doing some groundwork for a cabin salon and was wondering how you do your pedicures.
At the moment i am renting a small beauty room and do my pedicures on my couch, starting with the legs bent while i use my footsie bath and then up to normal position for the rest of my...
I have recently started seeing the most amazing guy. We are crazy about eachother and it's his 30th birthday in February. I've bought tickets to the Cirque Du Soleil and we're going to have dinner too, but i wanted to do something cute and special, so decided on Love Coupons.
Could you have a...
Hi lash geeks.
I'm new to lashes and haven't done loads, but a good 10 sets or more.
Saturday I had a new client who had lashes with someone else and had no issues. I did her lashes and although the lash stuck at first, later when I brushed, some came out. This happened a couple of times...
A new client left a message asking me to infill her semi-permanent lash extensions next week. They were not applied by me.
I would patch test her anyway as i can't assume that because she didn't react to their glue, she wouldn't react to mine. (I was taught to apply some primer, glue and...
I will need to invest in a new beauty couch very shortly as mine is slowly wearing out.
I rent a room and as it is fairly small, i need to be able to move the bed around the room, but i still want a bed that is strong and stable. I would prefer a 3 section couch so that i can bend the foot...
One of my lovely, fairly regular spray tan ladies came in this week for a spray tan and said that as her last tan was wearing off it looked like it had a cracking effect on her legs and wore off strangely around her underarms.
What would be the cause of this?
I've never had it before and...
