    Tattoos

    You are either against discrimination or you are not. It's not something you can dip in and out of, or pick who we discriminate against and who we can't, that's like saying I'm not racist but...... If the person has the qualifications, the skills, the work ethic, and comes to work clean and...

    Tattoos

    On one hand this thread has had me laughing with it's ridiculousness, but it also saddens me greatly. This is an issue with the industry. Beauty therapists and nail technicians are expected to fit into an out dated stereotype. Body modification takes many forms, from tattoos to more socially...

    Valentino dust extractor

    It also looks quite high so I'd be interested to hear how comfortable it is to work over, both for the techs and the client

    Valentino dust extractor

    I have just bought myself a new nail desk without any fitted extraction as I feel they don't really do the job. I planned to get an extraction system to sit on top of the desk and have been looking at the Valentino. I have several questions. Has any one used them and do you feel they are worth...

    Which gel and why?

    Shellac is a hybrid polish but yes is a type of gel polish. It is not gel. Gel is used to extend the nail, you cannot do this with shellac.

    Acrylics on a pregnant lady?

    I can't see the link either but in answer to you question, yes your friend is fine to have extensions. The product isn't absorbed into the body so is safe

    Giving the hand

    Also make sure your hand rest is under their forearm not under hand and their hand should naturally hang more relaxed, supported by your hand, and their fingers will point downwards.

    Giving the hand

    This made me chuckle, I know exactly what you mean. But it is frustrating. I make it all very jokey, while taking hold of their and putting it where I need it. Stuff fingers sometimes get a gentle shake/wiggle to get their attention . And if they continue to hold their finger so only they can...

    Let down by my nail tech

    Thanks for the replies. By saying trial period I don't mean I'm trying to get out of anything, I just meant she had not yet been given the contract that my other employees have. I'm just really mad as she has messed me around and I have bent over backwards to help and be nice to her. I even gave...

    Let down by my nail tech

    I know this isn't really nail related but wasn't sure where to post it. I have a nail tech that has worked for me for a couple of months and was on a three month trial so as yet had no contract. She was paid weekly and worked a week in hand. On Boxing Day I get a text saying see doesn't want to...
