    Dancing Geeks?

    I jive....not set routines or anything but freestyle stuff....like the kind you see in old 50s rock n roll films. I taught myself when i was 11 and bored at my first weekender.... I used to be pretty good winning competitions on the 50s scene....when I used to get hurled into the air and thrown...

    Mortified! First Shellac client and nails have chipped the next day :(

    I've got a friend coming round and I'm doing her nails. Then ive got to pick up another friend after that and then we're practically out. The client is out herself until 4/5 which is when I'll probably be in mid flow doing my friends nails....she wants gels and minx and she tells me they're a...

    Mortified! First Shellac client and nails have chipped the next day :(

    She was insisting on that slot. I offered her 3 other alternatives that day and even today but she wouldn't take them. I said to her it wasn't ideal and the reasons why. I also asked her about if she had somewhere suitable to do it...I.e a table and suitable lighting and she said yes. The...

    Mortified! First Shellac client and nails have chipped the next day :(

    As the title says. It was a nightmare in the first place and I had a feeling I'd get problems. First off it was very last minute....I got a call when I was at work and said I'd be able to do her that day, but then she said she had only a 1 hour slot she wanted them done in and no other time or...

    Nail trainer

    I found my persian cat the other day chewing the rubber finger tips on my nail trainer!! Two have come off....one of which I've found but the other is still missing in action! Ooooops! God knows how long she's been doing that for, and how on earth she got them off!!!!

    What to wear?!

    I'd defintely wear a suit..... I always go to interviews in nice trousers, a light coloured shirt and a suit jacket.... keep jewellery to a minimum, hair and nails neat (I've been before with dark blue and silver glitter nails and found myself hiding my hands the whole way through!!) It can...

    Tanning crisis!

    Honey, don't beat yourself up over it. You told her not to use any products on her skin yet she did. That's what has caused the green. I'm not in a position to give advice on how to tackle it (I've only just done my training) but it's nothing you've done whatsoever. She should have listened to...

    Grrrrrrrr!!!

    Exactly. How can she be working on paying clients without insurance?? I'd be a bitch and leave a comment on her page stating something about the whole insurance issue.... Some people really have no morals...

    Any tips on how to speed up will be GREATLY appreciated!

    Planky, if you want to try the second lamp option then you're more than welcome to borrow my spare (I've not even had it out of the box)?? I'm up in Towcester tomorrow night seeing my vocal coach (poss staying over in Milton Keynes) if you wanted to come and get it? (would offer to drop it to...

    About to sign lease - am I a fool?

    Hun, i agree with the others. If you're getting grief now, imagine what it's going to be like if you get any problems in the future? I haven't rented a shop myself but i have had nightmare landlords/letting agencies that were just trouble right from the word go and even getting the tenancy...

    Now I have a name, I need a tagline!

    A wide range of clients.... hopefully!!!! And i love your idea!!! Just the kind of thing i'm after! Thank you! I def like the idea of that. Although the crazy names my bass player has been coming up with I don't think will translate into any beauty-wise! Makes me sound more like a cheap...

    Custom mixing nail polish

    I've been layering polishes since i was old enough to be buying it. I just thought everyone done it! I used to get a silver colour, and then put one of those thin coloured glitter ones (think it might have been the Stargazer ones from way back when that had like a transparent but coloured base)...

    Now I have a name, I need a tagline!

    Official X Factor discussions!

    And i bloody well hate Kitty. God, get rid of her please. She has an ok voice but she's worse than Katie Weissel or whatever her name was last year....far too diva-ish and dramatic for me. :eek:

    Official X Factor discussions!

    I completely agree. What goes on behind the scenes shouldn't necessarily be bought out in public in the way it was. Ok, perhaps address it off air, but not like that. She was meant to be judged on her talent and performance, not what has gone on elsewhere.... I hate bullies myself, but i...

    Now I have a name, I need a tagline!

    Don't be sorry! Any contributions are good! I might end up going with something simple and to the point! At the moment I'm doing nails and tanning, and eventually eyelashes, make up, waxing etcetc. When I can afford to...
