Odd question, but is anyone able to tell me how tall a bottle of Vinylux is? Oh and if topcoat in the box is much bigger? I'm looking at packaging ideas and unable to measure up! Thank you! Sent from my GT-I9300 using SalonGeek mobile app

Hi ladies, quick question.. I bought a second wall rack ready for all the Shellac next year - I haven't quite got the whole collection yet, but thought it best to be prepared! Whilst that second rack is up on the wall it is empty and looking very sparse at the minute so thought I may place...

This is probably going to sound like a really stupid question, but... For those of you who use water decals and stickers how do you display/store them? I have examples of some of them, but don't want to lay everything out for the client to see - I'll just end up using all the good ones and...

Does anyone have two Shellac wall racks up yet? I'm rejigging my salon around and wondering if I should get a second rack put up ready for all the new colours. Also need to leave room for a Vinylux rack. How do you have yours? Any pics would be great.

I have a couple of clients who have stumped me and I need some advice please. Client No. 1 has been coming for regular fortnightly appointments. She first came to me at the beginning of the year hoping I could help her with her nails. On one hand, her thumb and ring finger both had vertical...

For those that have majority (if not all) of the Vinylux polishes, can you advise what colour would be similar to OPI's Aphrodites Pink Nightie. I have Shellac Strawberry Smoothie which is too pale but does have a similar shimmer to the OPI polish. I painted my clients nails in this today...

I'm just wondering how many of us do our CND Spa Manicure/Pedicure routines like those on the videos. They look lovely and relaxing on the videos, what with the caviar bowl and small bowls with decanted product etc. But do you actually do them like this? If so, how about posting a picture of...

Hi, I know this thread may well get moved, but I'm not too sure where else to put it. :confused: A friend of a friend is looking for a mobile nail tech to go to Histon for some Rockstar nails (not sure if fingers or toes). Anyone able to do this?

Hi all, I usually loiter around the Nail Geek threads, but thought I'd pop in here today too. I'm just finishing up my Level 3 Massage Route and it's been suggested to me that I might like the Advanced Epilation Techniques (City & Guilds) Level 4. Just wondering how many of you have done...

Being off with a bad back has got me thinking about how to contact clients while I'm at home ill. Obviously I don't want the hassle of driving in to work, calling clients up to cancel and then driving back home again. I work in my little salon alone and currently use the Google calendar to do...

Hi all I managed to hurt my back on Saturday evening after work. There was a loud pop and ever since it's been really painful. I managed to get an appointment with a nurse yesterday who couldn't do anything for me, as I need to see a doctor, and there are no appointments available until Friday...

Does anyone know a good brand for pre-cut silk wraps? I already have the strips that you cut to the nail shape, but would prefer to have the pre-cut ones.

Hi Does anyone know if we are still able to return this collection if we are still having problems with it?

A little while ago I created a colour pop with the snakeskin nail art that is going around. I used a few colours underneath and a blue over the top to create the effect. A client has now asked for the same, but in pinks (Gelish). I've tried a few colours this afternoon when I had a bit of...

Hi Geeks! I did a search but couldn't find anything that answered my question, so.. how do you keep your Facebook page interactive? I post pictures of my work, nail art, products coming soon etc and although I have over 300 likers, very few of them are actually interactive with me/the page...

Has anyone done this? I'm considering a move from owning a nail salon to renting a desk in a hairdressers to help cut down costs. Overheads and utility bills are breaking my back. Still undecided about things though, so would appreciate any thoughts.

A little advice is needed please Geeks.. I currently own my own little salon and my rent is up for renewal. I got a good deal 2 years ago and had the original rent reduced by a considerable amount. I have emailed the landlord to see if he is putting it up to the original price, if he does this...

Hi Geeks, not been around for a long time, but I've recently started to get my Geek on again. Over the past few weeks/months I've been feeling that I'm just not good enough at the nails I do. Clients are coming back reporting dry and/or flaking nails, Gelish doesn't last or peels or splits...

Hi, this is going to sound silly but I really don't know how to display my Gelish colour pops ans nail the art samples. Whichever way I do it they always get in a mess. I now have 59 Gelish colours, 6 Rockstar colours and many nail art samples. At the minute my Gelish colours are on the...

Just thought I should let you know of a page on Facebook that is possibly using photos of nails that she did not create. I have found one of my pictures on there already. Please take a look in case yours are up there too.
