    Talc or oil

    Any light velocity oil such as PR Jasmine Oil or the Berins Jasmine Oil is perfect. Add a couple of drops to the palms of your hands and rub your hands together. You should aim for a very light shimmer on the palms of your hands before applying to the skin. I tend to blot my hands on the couch...

    Any Kim Lawless waxers in the Southampton or Bournemouth areas?

    Why don't you contact Kim direct and see if she can put you in touch with someone she has trained in the area you are requesting. Not all of Kim's students will frequent the Salon Geek I wouldn't have thought. :lol:

    how to tan bum crease?

    Once you have sprayed the backs of the legs, ask the client to move one foot backwards, this opens the 'smile line' on the other leg and you lightly spray across the line. Then ask them to do the same with the other leg and it works a treat without getting your client to bend forwards which is...

    Never cease to be amazed how many entrepreneurs there are in our sector LOL

    I looked into this idea about 5 years ago... I couldnt afford it after I looked more indepth into it so didn't go for it.. it certainly seemed a good idea. This is a link to a site that has a franchise offer on it ... it shows the vans too... quite neat but I can't help feel it would feel a...

    Shellac removal

    I now use the Magis foil wraps for gel on my shellac removal and gelish removal and they work perfectly well. I have put my D-solve into a press despenser and just use two pumps of the D-solve on each wrap which is much less than I used to use on the Shellac wraps where I tipped the bottle to...

    Plastic surgery? Did you get the results you hoped for?

    I got an email to my salon from BBC3 TV asking if I knew anyone who would like to be considered to take part in a new TV programme about having cosmetic surgury or has already had some. I have an application form within the email they sent me and if anyone is interested in it please pm me...

    Is this Normal?

    Just a little tip: Sudocrem is an excellent healing cream to put on your waxing grazes but only if its applied very thinly; Sudocrem can burn the skin further if applied too thickly. :cry:

    Adele

    I am not around that much these days.. but I am happy to say that I enjoyed talking with Adele on occasion and always felt her posts to the forum always interesting, knowledgeable, caring and often had me laughing my socks off. I am sad that I never got to know Adele in the 'real' world as I...

    Anyone else tried the new LED lamps yet?

    Ah thanks for the replies. It does take me a full two mins to paint one hand while the other is curing so it won't make my service any faster. I just wish I had the new Shellac lamp so I could do a full hand at a time instead of 4 fingers then the thumbs. I will keep holding on for the...

    Question regarding the CND Brisa Lamp?

    Please can any one tell me why you can't do a five finger cure with the original Brisa lamp? I did myself a set of Shellac today on my own hands and put my whole hand in to save some time and they 'seem' to have cured all fingers. I tried to keep my thumbs as flat as possible inside the lamp...

    ** The official and only Big brother thread **

    JJ is a little bit too controlling ... but Josie can handle him and he needs her onside or he is a wreck as he showed last night. Bless him... he needed a hug didnt he. I like Josie and hope she will win.. she is the most real in there. Not keen on her thumb sucking though.. she obviously...

    HollyWood Wax & Menstruation

    I will wax ladies who are menstruating and wearing a tampon. It doesnt hinder me in the slightest, and I always make the client fully aware that waxing can be more sensitive during menstruation. As I don't double dip I dont see any problem with it myself, but of course you have to work...

    Magis gel foil wraps & Shellac

    Can anyone explain the difference please between the foil wraps for fingers for gel removal and for L&P removal? I see that there are less in the pack for L&P but yet are more money? Oh and which one would be best for Shellac removal? Thanks

    Men requesting naked spray tans....

    I see naked mens bodies on a daily basis while intimate waxing and am very comfortable with this. I also do spray tanning and have often sprayed men naked without any problem either. But I do have to say a few weeks ago I did a full body wax on a guy and he was booked in the following day for...
