Hi Can anyone recommend any range they love? Is brazilian blow dry the best on the market? I remember looking at one a rep brought in but it was really expensive to initially buy in and it from what he said, it seemed to take so long time to do that I don't know if it was even profitable...

Hi geeks :) We've had some time away from tanning but we're looking to start again.. Please could you help me with what's popular and good results and also what's generally being charged out there now?? I know when they were first around years ago then they were £25, then seemed to go down to...

Hi I have a fab, busy salon in Warrington where we have a strong hair team and a nail technician who offers only acrylic nails and shellac - no manis or pedis. We do a lot of wedding work offering both hair and make up, so this is something we would wish to continue with. I am looking for a...

Hi We're a matrix salon and we absolutely swear by the sr range of lifting reds they really do lift phenomonally including existing colour not just natural colour. If the client has a root, you shouldnt need to put the sr directly on the scalp - 7rr+ may be enough with a 30vol/40vol maybe...

Hi, IMO, and after using various tan brands over the years such as Fake bake, Sienna x, Sun Laboratories and Solaris.. I definitely would never use anything else other than Sienna x! The colour of all %s is fab, lovely and golden not orange which I did find with fake bake.. I dont think there...

Hi, I am doing a new price list for nails to accomodate a newly qualified nail technician working alongside our experienced, existing nail technician - I feel they definitely need different prices to avoid being compared all the time and to grow the clientele of the newly qualified staff...

Hi, I am opening a new salon and am not a nail tech (hairdresser) but would love to hear your opinions.. Shellac or Gelish?? Thnx in advance, Laura x

Hi geeks, Has anyone had any experience with Solaris spray tan? I've used it a few times, some times its lovely - some times the feedback has been that it goes very scaly and you just can't get the stuff off. I know most go patchy inevitably, but this more so (like snake skin look!) Just...

Hi geeks :) Anyone had any experience with this company - Active salon? They're based in Sale, Manchester. I'm thinking of taking on their computer/software package - I just wondered if any one had any experience with them before I do..? Thanks, Laura x

Hi fellow geeks :) So I have had my salon for 4 years and believe it or not, never had to advertise for staff as I have been lucky enough that the right people have just came along at the right time.. I'm now opening salon 2 :) (Yay!).. But has anyone any tried and tested methods of...

Hi I am in no way a salon designer.. but I have just redesigned my salon and id like to think I'm very creative and good at utilizing any little nook and cranny of space there is available. I made a blank floorplan of the salon on the computer and printed a load out and had a play around with...

Hey geeks :) I know prices will differ up and down the country, but what would you say is an average weekly rental price? And also, if you rent a desk or rent one out.. What kind of rules etc do you have in place? The dilemma I have is, I have 2 nail technicians employed but I've been...

Color graphics are amazing. I use it all the time and it never fails me. of course just like any colour or bleach - if you've got a natural root and heavily coloured ends youre looking at 2 mixtures anyway to achieve an even result. It isn't a miracle worker but does make life a lot easier...

Hello geeks :) Just wonder if there are any salon owners out there who would maybe find it interesting to do a kind of "wife swap"... but salon not wife... and not for a week just maybe a day or afternoon... and not takeover just maybe shadow the other person and see their methods of doing...

Hi, As a salon owner, I use pretty much the same rule for training costs but mine is only one yes. I must admit after working in a few salons, that's the first I've heard of taking appointments 15 mins after start and giving you a half hr at the end of the day - thats really good of your boss...
