Hi I am bought a few brand in the past when I first started out and I don’t use them and selling them is hard. So I was wondering can you mix brand products. Such as a ‘Orange’ brand Acrylic powder with ‘Yellow’ brand Retention liquid? And Use a builder gel from one brand with gel...

I think compared to normal examing boards - the nails VCT is not clear on what is expected - you cant find things online and tutors are more interested in teaching the course and then giving you information on what is required. I have notice my training college is now providing nail courses...

why cant we just click our fingers and be that talented?! :irked:

Hi I am mobile and I’ve mainly focused on uni students. I’ve yet to expand myself to non students ( so its good to read the stories above) Though the trouble I have with students is that they tend to call their mates over who like to look around in my nail box and my varnishes (which I...

Thank you all for your replies We work in the construction industry – hes more a paper person then to be on site. I know he bites his nails. Thank you for your suggestions – I was thinking of a thinking of a small gel overlay but weren’t sure if it would work.

Hiya I agree, I was thinking about it to help with white tips and fancy artwork but most of my clients are into simple white tips or a coat of colour with a bit of free hand. Its up to you. I would suggest you use your stuff to the max – try out some designs and advertise on it to your...

cheers karen part of me thinks he has been picking at it! i did advise to file the nail instead of using nail clippers so he doesnt cause further damage.

Hi I need some help. I did a fibreglass overlay to help a split nail grow out and the fibreglass was on the nail for 4 weeks and the natural nail split again according to the client (who is a man in his 40’s). I got another guy who wants to sort his split nail out he has had for 30 years and...

i wouldnt try it on a 10yr old, you dont want to put ridges in her nails, if she breaks a nail at school during sports it will hurt her. find some neices or gather some mates around and practice on them or ask your lil ones mates mothers/ sisters if they dont mind helping you out.

Hi I have bought those 'really useful storage boxes' normal plastic box with lid - and keeo it in there. just make sure the bottles are upright and that you dont move the box about. its hard to find something to keep them safe as well as being practical.

Hi dont get put off by minx and gels because they are the current phases that have just come out and celebrities are wearing them. Stick to the varnishes and come up with some cool nail art. I have considered minx but as my clients are not wanting them there is no point pushing it onto...

well i went with a well known beauty college who taught you technique and whats out there and how to go about it. when it came to products the college had to stick with what they are told to use. there was a few brand names dropped but soon as i passed and was out of there i faced a big...

hiya I agree with Anna Timing - mine was 2.5hrs for my first full of nails - until you find the right product that suits your clients nail and technique - then it will get easier. My timing is still around 1.5 - 2hrs - some members of family tease me about it but when you have a client...

hi hun i use tips with no contact and with the ones i dont i have bought a solution which allows you to tip blend when its attached to the nail - i bought mine from my college and scarcely use it unless i need to.

Thank you for all your messages - there is too many people in heathrow, hounslow area that are NSS, ladies from abroad with poor english doing nails at their own home for £5 for full set. Too many people are going for cheap prices. I have spent loads on advertising and time flyering and...
