AS you have had no replies thought I would try and help . Thank goodness they are still popular as that is what we sell most of 😅 . We do hard gels and have a large range of different ones . The newest ones Cross Link and Flexi gel have fast become our most popular ones due to both the strength...

I first trained in nails when I was 42 and beauty at 46 and still going strong over 23 years with no intention of retiring any time soon .So no never too old . I always think if I am alive and I want to do it then I will do it . Don't use age as an excuse and life becomes a whole lot better :)...

Have you checked with your insurance to see if you are covered for this even if the guardian does give permission personally I would not do gel polish on anyone under 16 . How is she going to remove it as she certainly will not be a regular customer . Can you not suggest regular polish instead ?

How long have you been using this particular gel and which make is it ? Are you sure you are not getting the product on your skin ?

I think I will still use mine to be honest. Took me several goes to find one that I am finally happy with . Covid or no covid makes clients feels better and lets face it may help tp protect you from all those colds etc :-) . No brainer for me...

Did you do your nails yourself . No such thing as acrylic gel . Its either or . However there is a new polygel product out . Need more info on who did your nails , when were they done and exactly what product do they have on them as that will determine how to remove and what you should do :)

Di-Hema is a bonded form of Hema so is less likely to cause reactions . It is used in a lot of nail products :) If you have reacted to the Hema in the builder gel then I would avoid using products with HEMA in them totally

Oh bless you but I am sooooo sorry I cannot send samples to the US unfortunately . Our postal service does not allow it . So sorry :-(

We have just bought out a gel especially for flexible and weak nails . Called Flexi gel it is brilliant on natural nails . Happy to send you a sample if you would like :)

I think they are both popular as is natural nail overlays with gel polish . Gel can be easier to learn and although I am qualified in both I mostly use gel . For several reasons . I don't like the smell of the acrylic monomer , I find it gives me headaches, I think gels look more natural and...

Yeap . One on one with screen and mask and all the normal hygiene measures we all take is not ok for us yet 30+ people all getting pissed in a pub ,no masks on and no social distancing is fine apparently :mad: :mad: :mad: But actually when it IS all over I think I will still keep the screen as...

I agree with you . I dont see how the visor is any better than a screen . I asked my customers what they thought though and they all want me to keep the screen there as they feel safer . In fact just ordered another screen lol. I find my visor ok . No glare and dont know its on . I got this one...

Sorry I dont use goggles . and no glasses are not classed as goggles so if a glasses wearer it needs to be visor OR goggles additionally . I wear glasses and dont think I would like goggles as well . I use a visor and a screen and I don't even notice the visor on :)

The rules have been changed again unfortunately and they no longer say barrier. They say that a visor OR goggles need to be worn in addition to the mask :-(

We have a builder gel specifically for weak and bendy nails just released :) . Its called Flexi gel . Its not a soak off but you don't need it to be as this does not need removing each time . Just quickly file off the shellac and the you can reapply the Flexi gel again . Filing should actually...

Not quite sure what you mean by 'easy build ' ? Could you explain a bit more what you are referring to please ?

Funny enough I asked the same question a couple of weeks ago and I ordered both trial kits . I found the Glitterbells MUCH easier to get good bead size so stuck with that and sold the CJP kit :-). I also bought the size 8 glitter brush from them( Glitterbels ) and its perfect for me but...

I shall not be allowing mine to hold them . I shall show them to them myself . Fortunately I know our customers very well and often suggest colours anyway once they have said which group hey want ie Pinks , nudes etc . Defo will not let them touch them for the time being . Having to clean them...

Its a difficult one but it depends on circumstances . The home nail salon where you can have only one client at a time , masks for both yourself and the client , screens and visors plus all the NORMAL hygiene routines we SHOULD always carry out even before this virus then I cannot see how this...

Often when clients hands are stiff it is because their whole body is and possibly they are are holding their arm 'straight' if that makes sense . I ask them to drop their shoulders, bend at the elbows then I hold their hand and give it a gentle shake saying relax . Seems to do the trick x
