Well ladies - any advice to offer? Whats a girl to do when she reaches the end of her tether and decides to jack it all in - the whole point of 'doing' nails was to have a second income and then hopefully a small business ... but as products and extra training are so expensive its...

Please please help me - and quick!!! I have been working on clients at last, and they have been pleased with the results and the price - I refuse to charge salon prices till I am salon standard. The thing is infills/backfills fill me with dread - I tried doing my own thumb the other...

HI all - can anybody advise on soaking off nails. I should point out that I didn't apply the nails that need soaking off. This will be my first client for soak off - cant even use my self as a marker as I commit the worst sin ever ... I nibble mine off! I know, I shouldn't do it - but once...

Okay everybody - would you treat a client who has eczema? What problems do you forsee. At the moment the girl has itchy sore fingers - I said that until that subsides it would be unwise to apply nails/acrylic. Any thought on this subject warmly welcomed folks. Thanksyou Sue...

Hi all :D How much training, experience - call it what you will - did you all have before actually setting to work on 'live' clients!? Did any of you start out with as little as the four day courses, on offer from so many companies, under your belt - if so, how long before you actually...

On the course I did we were taught to sanitize our tables, hands and implements with a spray sanitizer. But what about Barbicide, we weren't told about this substance. I imagine this is for soaking clippers, cuticle pushers in - any other things you can use this for - do you use it neat? Is...

In a british paper I have recently read this extract from a beauty page - Continually covering what nature provided with extensions on a regular basis can be bad news. Repeatedly depriving your nails of oxygen can be detrimental. They go soft, split and crack. And if you wear falsies for...

Hi all - if I manage to apply tips and then add all pink (rather than P&W) to a nail biter - could I get away with painting on a 'French Manicure' and to make it permanent - at least till her next infill - add a coat of clear acrylic? Would this work? Love Sue xxx

Hi Mrs - me again - you said to remind you about a sheet detailing how clients should be looking after their enhancements. Am hoping it will be like a handout for clients. Love Sue xxx

Hey maybe it shouldn't happen - but what if a client turns up for an infill and you dont like the look of her nails ... you did them last time. They are discoloured and jaded looking - do you suggest having the nails taken off and her to have a rest from enhancements for a while - or...

Up to my eyes in nail art at the moment - boy its addictive isn't it. My first four attempts were abysmal - then lo and behold, better and better. Quite impressed myself! What kind of prices do you ladies charge for nail art - would this be an addition to your nail enhancements - how...

Hi Ladies - anyone use Nail solution products - anyone ever ordered from them and had goods delivered ... whats the verdict? Products any good, service/delivery any good? Just looking around at the moment deciding which products to try next. Up to my eyes in nail art at the moment - boy...

Hi all - does anyone know if there are any sites on the web who show step by step details of how to do simple yet effective nail art - by hand - not airbrush? :) Love Sue xxx

Hi all - any sites around who have a hand-out list that I could print off to then dish out to clients - so that they are aware that they have some work to do in keeping their nails as decent looking as possible till our next appointment!!! Thanks Sue :D xxx

Hi all - me again with yet another quiry! But hey, at least I keep you all on your toes!!! Just read a posting on another site about a girl having problems with her clients nails when she removed the enhancements. Her natural nails had gone green - mould/fungus call it what you will. My...
