    Brisa Gel-discontinued?

    Hi. I've been out of the nail business for a while now and am just starting to get back into it friend has just asked me to do her teenage daughters nails for her and after checking my kit, I found I was short on a few items. So went to S2 page to find out how much it's going to cost me and they...

    Daylight lamps

    I have the Slimline Day Light lamp and although it cost more, I feel it is worth the price. I bought a cheaper daylight lamp before the slimline lamp and it really didn't come close to the one I have now, hence why I replaced it after a few months, it just didn't give me the light I needed.

    Shellac price?

    I'm Bristol based and mobile, like yourself but I charge £25 for a basic Shellac Manicure, more for Spa Manicure ans Pedicure's. Anything less, I feel under values the Shellac product and my skills. Also, if your too cheap, you may attract clients which do not care for thier Manicure properly...

    Brisa removal question

    Hi Geeks, I am hoping someone can help me with a question I have. I have been using Brisa for over a year but had never removed a set before last night. I know Brisa is a buff off gel and is acetone resistant. My CND Brisa workbook from my training, said to remove Brisa, you should buff the...

    Your RRP for Solar Oil Pinkies

    I retail mine at the RRP of £3.95, I feel to sell them lower than the RRP just under values the product. I also stoke the other larger bottles for retail and sell them all at their RRP. I give one pinki away with a new clients first shellac/enhancement appointment, which I factor the cost of...

    Shellac and fluff

    I used to get the dreaded fuzzys until I switched to the soft landings nail wipes which I get from S2. I found the handsdown plastic backed pads where a complete nightmare for fuzzys and I'd spend more time fishing them of the nails than I did polishing the Shellac.

    Brisa problem

    I've had something like this before and it was the black dye rubbing off of the inside on the pocket on a new pair of jeans. As I was normally using my right hand i.e. to hold bags / umbrellas etc , I only had the marks on my left hand. It could be your client has done something similar without...

    Can you give me any advice re: PCOS/Clomid?

    Hi I have PCOS and needed to have fertility treatment for my second child. I did get pregant after 3 and a half years of treatment. I was on Clomid AND Metformin. It's fair to much to put on here but Clomid alone was not enough for me. I also have IBS and it took a few trys before I could...

    How do you pick your crystals up?

    I have the picker upper from nail delights as well. I used an orangewood stick and cocktail stick with blue tac in the past but the crystals kept dropping off before I got them where I wanted them. I would not be without my picker upper now I've used it :biggrin:

    Glove or not to glove

    I only wear gloves when I want to protect my own shellac. If the Shellac is due to come off or I have nacked nails, then I don't use gloves. Even when I do use gloves, I only use them for the parts of a service which invole me using products containing actone as I find my hands get sweaty...

    Shellac stands already on eBay!

    In all honesty, I dont think there is anything S2 can do about the people selling trade only products on eBay or other sites. I have thought about buying some items from eBay, so I can get the seller's return address and name, then passing those details and items on to S2 but I doubt that...

    Client's weird comment

    Tammy, I honestly can not beleive or even understand racism in this day and age (not that it was ever right in anyway!). I don't care where you are or who you are, racism is wrong and those that beleive in it, are the ones that will go to any form of hell there maybe. No God or Jesus would...

    Client's weird comment

    What makes this funny, is that the client probably didn't mean to say "yes" or for it to come out in a negative way. I can just imagine what was going through her head after the word came out of her mouth! I bet she wanted the ground to open up and swallow her whole (I know I would lol). Sam xx

    Client's weird comment

    WTF! I don't know how you did not just get up and tell her to leave the salon. I get how you would control yourself enough to ask her to leave but how on earth did you manage to continue to treat this women. I cann't beleive this type of thing still goes on. Sam xx

    Certificates

    If it was me, I would want a hard copy of any certifcates I had earned. I'd also begrudge paying to have a PDF file printed after I had already paid out for the course. I would expect the cost of the certifcate to be included in the course fee's. I was anoyned enough when I had to pay the...

    Need to identify this Shellac colour...

    Strawberry Smoothie is a shimmery pink. Why not take a look at the pictures in the Shellac lovers group. There are loads of photographs of pretty much all the Shellac colours (bottled, not layerad that is)

    Union Jack Blue Shellac

    Are these photos true to colour ? also did you do 1 or 2 coats of Asphalt before the coat of Purple Purple ? I love blue nail colours on myself and have found it very frustrating not having many options with Shellac, so this has made me a very happy bunny. You really should put a copy of the...
