Hi Fellow Geeks I've got quite a few pregnant clients at the moment and thought I would introduce a "yummy mummy" range. Was just wondering if any of you guys did any ante natal/post natal treatments and what you used. I'm not an aromatherapist (it's on the long list of courses I would love...

I'm a nurse and a foot health pracitioner. The thickened nail can be caused by disease, infection (fungal nail infection) or there are medication that cause thickened nails. The skin look like eczema. A bit of steroid cream and/or epiderm (as it has no lanolin in it) would probably clear this...

Hey Guys Just looking for some advice on a beauty salon I've seen that's for sale. The beauty salon is located in a prime central location within a parade of complementary shops and businesses in the heart of a local town. The business receives a huge amount of footfall, as being well...

My 7 year old has the worst hair for tangles. She won't wear it up and every morning we have a row trying to brush her hair. My hairdresser advised Mane & Tail, lol. It works brilliantly. Don't know if you could use that in a professional capacity though.

Well she's just cancelled again. Says she snowed in. It's just the way she says it "Can't make it. You'll have to book me in for next week". I'm booked solid next week with it being Valentines day. So it's going to have to go over to the following week which means this voucher will be 4...

They rang me recently and I was very tempted until she said she wanted £43 a month. As a part time therapist, that is just to much money especially when I couldn't be 100% sure it would generate much business.

A friend of mine runs a mother and tots group and asked if I would donate a raffle prize for her Christmas raffle. I donated a £25 treatment thinking a mum would win it, come for a treatment, love it, go and tell everybody else how great it was and get me lots of business. However, my friends...

I'm not sure if this will be of any help to you or not but it might be worth a try. If you have a facebook account, do a search for MUA's. Some of the MUA's in your area may well do accredited make-up courses at a reasonable price. I know there are a few MUA's on facebook in my area who have...

Hiya. Firstly, congratulations. I bet there's great excitement in your house. I have two girls and they were so excited to find out they were going to have a little sister (they had decided that the baby was a girl). All went a bit pear shaped when we found out it was a boy, lol. Anyway...

Was just wondering, do those of you who have home based salons do male massages? If so, how do you keep yourself safe? My husband works in Nigeria so organising a time when my husband is home is a no go and I don't know anyone else who would just come and sit in my house when I was working...

I set up as a Foot Health Practitioner 4 years ago, qualified as a holistic therapist two years ago and in beauty this last June. I have regular foot care and holistic clients mobile, but have spent the last four or five months getting practice and my home salon decorated and set up. Launched...

I use Shrinking Violet and I have a home salon without shower facilities. I agree with Bombalurina. I would never leave a client alone for an hour. I offer a reflexology foot massage or a deluxe facial in with the treatment. I figured it all in on the price based on the fact that we are in...

I know how you feel. When I had my first baby, I sobbed my heart out all day on my first day back at work after mat leave. Having said that, you've put your all into setting up this salon and it sounds like you'd done a great job and were busy. I would look at ways of keeping the salon but...

Thanks for all your responses. How does the installation of card machine work? Does whoever you go with come and set it up for you or do they send you everything in the post and you set it up?

Hey Guys. Do any you who are home/mobile therapists have a credit/debit card machine? I've always had the occasional client asking me if I take cards but since I expanded my treatments recently, I've had a lot more people asking me if I take cards and I've also lost out on a lot of retail...

I have my own bath and body range. I make bath bombs, soaps, candles, that sort of thing. Make up gift baskets and do craft fairs, offer my services to day centres, youth clubs, etc to go in and make bath stuff with the clientele and make a bit of money from it. My gift baskets fly off the...

Hiya. I make my own bath and body products and all my products have a cosmetic safety assessment for me to use on members of the public. I also have public indemnity insurance to cover me should anything go wrong. My safety assessment covers me for some aromatherapy oils but, to be I still...

I'm the same as you. Started off mobile but have set up a home salon. I had a little chat with the clients I knew wouldn't want to come to me, and asked if I could see them all on a Monday. Thankfully, they were happy enough with that. So Monday's I'm mobile and the other days I work, I work...

I need to ask you guys something. It was my birthday earlier on this week and I was working in the morning of my birthday. My husband works in Africa but he was home 9 days before my birthday. So, I got up on the day of my birthday and my husband came in to the kitchen and said "Happy...
