Hiya I'm pretty sure that you will be able to order from Sweet Squared, the Creative distributor. As far as I'm aware you only need to have trained with them if you want to order L&P, and so can therefore buy everything else. Tel no: 0845 210 6060

Hiya Thank you for replying. I have had trouble with my internet connection so I feel really bad for not replying sooner. In the end I was ill and didn't go to either event and my nails still need doing again. Wah! Thanks!

Ok, for my sins I am going to an 80's fancy dress party on Saturday and am going as Supergirl:Scared: Hubby's going as Magnum, P.I.!:lol: Here's the big question - How should I do my nails?!!! The problem - I'm going to a wedding the day before. I don[t have time/patience to do two different...

Hiya I have been in your situation so many times and my heart goes out to you. Please think really carefully about how much the money you make in this job is worth, versus your health, happiness and sanity. I had been in job,after job, after job, each time thinking that I had finally...

Count me in! Lovely, lovely, lovely sprouts. Hey, for all you non-sprout lovers taking over our thread; does this mean you don't like beansprouts either? I'm sure this is an all-inclusive sprout society - no discrimination!!

Hiya! I came across this info last night whilst whiling away my time surfing! Bradford do a foundation degree, but it does look like you need level 3 first. Anyway, they may be easier to talk to than your local college and you are both in Yorkshire! Bradford College University Centre...

Hi About the pedicure seating thing - i use a bean bag to sit on! It's low enough for me to be at a good height for the client, supports my back, and stops me getting a numb bum! Only trouble I have is getting up again at the end of service!! The only thing i can see with this though is...

Well, yes,but I would never give 50% off because it might seem too much and people might question why you need to give that much off! Hope that makes sense :eek: I set all my enhancement prices - rebalances, repairs etc and gave a blanket 20% off everything. Btw I didn't start doing Brisa gel...

I charge £50 for P&W Tip & Overlay, £45 for P&w NNO. I am in an affluent area,but I would say this is in the top range, though I am the only CND GM in this area. (I'm also thinking of putting this up next year !!!):evil: When I started out 2 years ago, I charged £34 for P&W Tip & Overlay...

Hello and thank you for the information. As a CND Grand Master you can understand that I am a super-loyal, but worried all the same, customer! This is official good news, which builds on what I read in the latest edition of Professional Beauty (but I take a press release/article like that with...

I agree - what is the point of being qualified in something if you aren't going to use it to your benefit?! I forgot to say also that setting the price and reducing it for a time worked well for me because when I went full price, people already knew what the full charge would be and it wasn't...

That's great - just shows you how much your clients value you! For one thing, you don't know how good you are going to be until you actually get there and are doing it, and you don't know how good the other techs are, so don't put yourself down!:hug: Also, so long as people know you are...

Hi Becki! I think it depends on how you get on with your course and how comfortable you are. I know I was concerned at first about how people would receive me and my newly qualified nails. I did start charging immediately after I qualified, but at a reduced rate (20% off). I became quite...

Hi - 2-3 weeks is fine! Older clients generally have slower nail growth and so can go a bit longer, nail biters should really be booked in max 10 days after, until their natural nail gets better - if they stop the habit of course! I would say about half my clients come every 2 weeks, but I...

Hi - it depends on the client, so 1 hour to 1 hour 30 max.

Thanks guys! These are all really helpful - I knew I would get the info I needed here! I'm just too impatient I think - she's not back to work until Tuesday and I want it lighter NOW!!!!!! Well, off to wash it now - thanks again.

Valencian Nails - I can't stand that either... infact I've got a few car related pet hates... When I'm driving and hubby is a passenger... :evil: (that should actually be number one on the list lol) 1) I put the car into reverse and he automatically checks behind to see what I'm going to hit...

I'm off again! What I didn't say was that I had nightmares for two weeks - of that part on the wood, and when the rescue crew are sailing through the dead bodies, pushing them aside, and there are babies and families clinging together all dead - omg - wah!!!!

Hello! I am a nail geek looking for some advice 'cos I'm a little unhappy with the way my hair has turned out today and I'm not sure how much of a fuss I should make of it! Without going into the whole story, I had highlights and lowlights earlier today and my hairdresser said that she would...

Sorry forgot to add a new one - Jack and Sarah - when she dies, leaving the baby, and he goes home and sees the lipstick on the glass etc. It's setting me off just thinking about it!
