Hi Thank you for replies, I have purchased a few more iChill cd's today at the show and shall be making a call tomorrow to PPL to let them know we play license free music. (I'm actually feeling slightly smug about it!!! Lol :)) Linds xx

Hi Thank you so much for your replies. Vic is right, it seems to be based on the size of your salon. On my invoice it has how many treatment rooms etc.... I don't know how much the PRS one is as it's already been paid, possibly in the region of £100??? So much money just to have a bit of...

Hi I have recently taken over a salon and the previous owner told me that the PRS music license is all paid up for this year. This week I received a phone call from a company call PPL and today a letter in the post with an invoice for £135 saying I need to pay this as I play music in the...

Thank you for your replies, I have been investigating since I posted and Angelina I have looked at these glasses online, they look much better than the headset I wear. Heather, funnily enough one of my colleagues suggested reading glasses at a stronger prescription so I think I will pay a visit...

Hi All, I have to wear glasses for reading, tv etc so wear them for lashing too. Recently I started to use the mag lamp as well so that I could get really close up, the problem I had with this is that the lamp is awkward to work under. So I bought a magnifying headset, now I find that after...

Hi Chazz..... Thanks for taking the time to reply. It's interesting to hear what other people have done. With the NVQ they have to do 1/2 & full leg, underarm, bikini, lip, chin & eyebrows and also they have to work on clients. No family & friends allowed. Did you feel confident when you'd...

Thanks for your reply Chazz. I have read a few of these, a lot of them seem to be hair related............also I was quite interested in people opinions on the VRQ whether they have studied it or teach it. x

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me answer this question: What is the difference between an NVQ & a VRQ? The college I teach at is switching this year from NVQ Beauty to VRQ. I have searched the internet and read all the relevant paperwork for this qualification and as far as I can make out...

Hi Maisiemouse, There's a device built into the applicator head that prevents the wax flowing back into the tube. As far as I'm aware this is the only company on the market to have this. There are different sized heads for different areas, hence changing the head. when moving on to a different...

Thanks for your reply, I think I shall be adding this to my Xmas list! :lol: xx

You cannot guarantee the wax flowing back into the cartridge with the roller system, but the PhD heads are designed so that once the wax has come out of the tube any excess will not flow back in. All heads are pre sealed individually in bags and should be put on the tube in front of the client...

Hi, I feel that the time has come for me to do a refresher on Brazilian/Hollywood waxing, I origionally trained with Salon Systems about 6 years ago. I plan to do Kim Lawless's course, but won't be able to go until after Xmas. I have been looking through a few threads on here and this dvd's...

Hi there, I wonder if anyone can shed any light on this little problem...... I am a lash technician so am aware of the problems surrounding lashes not staying on etc, and all the clients I have done have had their lashes last for weeks (a friend of mine still has them on after 7/8 weeks, only a...

Hi there, I am still on the hunt for good quality lashes at reasonable prices....... I have looked on a number of websites and have found eyelash emporium and lashbase seem to be the best prices. My question is does it really matter if you mix brands/companies when doing extensions. I am...

Hi there, I did my minx training through Ellisons last year, but have only been doing it on myself, just using a normal high wattage desk lamp for the heat...... I have now added this service to my price list and have had a few queries so I need to invest in a proper heat lamp. Having searched...

Thank you so much, I shall pass this on to my client.... x

Hi there, I'm not sure if this is the right place, but it is nail related..... I have a client who is going to Spain (torrevieja) on Monday for about 5 weeks. I did her nails for her yesterday and she is booked for when she comes back, although I'm not sure whether she'll have many left by...

I have just completed this course and I did find it quite overwhelming to start with.... but after a while I kind of fell into their way of thinking. I took loads and loads of note during each lesson and used these along with the book PTTLS to write my assignments. When we had 'review role...

thank you for your replies, I think I'll try sculpting on the ones that are bad. Thanks again..... Linds x
