Thanks for the link. Interesting that this item is only listed on their UK site and not the US site. I wonder how come?

I just checked on NSI's website and didn't see anything called fuminator. Can you provide a link? Am curious about it. Thank you.

With all the odorless products out there, why subject everyone to an odor that isn't necessary? And I'm sorry but you never get use to it, it smells, and it is a strong, powerful odor, period. In my opinion comparing monomer smell to perm is ridiculous. Unless a hairdresser does a perm on...

Yes, medicines and health conditions can cause lifting.

I'm just not sure why there would be fumes when using a brush on activator. I can see spray on, but not brush on. Are you getting too close to your work. Sometimes when I get my face too close to my work I can get some fumes in my eyes. Maybe you just got a bad bottle. Ask the company.

How dare she??? First of all to say you are a nail tech and show up 1/2 hour late is just down right rude. And to expect you to finish in the amount of time left is unthinkable. Then to put pressure on you to hurry through steps shows she more than likely is not a professional nail tech. If she...

IMO the Mani Pro is a waste of money. It doesn't have the torque and it vibrates too much to use. Very uncomfortable for the client and the tech.

TY for the replies. I will let my friend know. Sorry for replying so late. I was w/o a computer for a few days. Glad to be back!!

She is either way too nice and doesn't want to turn anyone away or it's all about getting as much money in as she can. I had a salon owner who couldn't understand why I wouldn't make my standing clients sit around and wait while I crammed someone in who waited til the last minute to think about...

The best thing to get rid of the smell is to not use that type of monomer. There are odorless monomers out there that work quite well. There are also other products out there that you can use that make great quality nails.....gel, silk/fiberglass, and resin acrylic dip systems. No matter...

Genital herpes is different than the cold sore type. Yes, once it is in your system, it is there for life. Since you are working on her hands it shouldn't be an issue as it is sexually transmitted disease. You can get genital herpes prior to breakout, or after, contrary to what some have said...

When coloring hair does it matter: 1. how much product you put on the hair? 2. the developer has sat around for awhile? Does the strength of it deminish over a short period of time? 3. is it the amount of product you put on the hair, or the amount of time the product is on the hair that...

IMO there isn't anything you can use to 100% extract the odor of monomer. Even if you put your trash in a can with a lid, put things in a plastic bag, use a lid on your dish, etc. there will still be an odor because it is on your brush and you are using it. Best suggestion is to learn how to...

You can use an electric file on natural nails, but you have to know what bits can be used on natural nails and what speed and how much pressure to not use. Some bits are designed to be used on natural nails. When buying bits for your e-file ask the seller which ones can be used, they should...

The one thing I would have to say that people totally don't understand is that it is almost impossible to build a business in a year. It takes, in most cases, more than two years and can take even longer. Majority of businesses if they stay in business over 3 years they are doing great...

What steps are you doing in prepping the nails and applying the tips? Am I understanding right that you only have this issue with you and no one else? So you apply tips on your clients and they do fine? I've been using tips for over 20 years now and have had no problems with the resin...

Not sure if you have craft stores overseas, but here you can get "dotting" tools in craft stores. A lot cheaper that way.

There is a lot of terminology being loosely used on here and I feel compelled to clarify some things. Sanitize - washing with anti bacterial soap (first step in cleaning implements/tools), rinse and dry off. Disinfectant - solution designed to kill certain bacteria, germs, diseases (2nd step...

IMO it's all in your attitude. If you like doing Fiberglass/silk and do it well then your client's will like it too. Most client's don't really care what product you use. It's the end result they want.....that they have nails! I built quite a good size business with silk nails and they hold...

Use to use OPI, but I got tired of it getting thick when it was less than half empty and they made it too expensive to use. Since then I've used Zoya, not quite as bad as OPI. But now I use China Glaze, love it. It doesn't get thick til you've used 3/4 of the bottle. Client's were die hard...
