Hi geeks So I'm going to take advantage of their 20% discount tomorrow but its my first order of solution since my kit ran out and I'm trying to work out what percentages to get. I want to work cleverly with this. I want to get three bottles I think but was wondering which three. My first...

I use Nouvatan (and love it) I'm trying to use the solution up so I can order a fresh batch but I have a bottle of 14% and lots of paler friends...!! In my head it makes sense to just tell them to wash off earlier but is this right? If so how long would you tell them to wash it off after? I...

I have a client that has had a tattoo finished off today. She's got Christmas party on Tuesday night and has been booked in for ages for a spray tan on Monday. I've been a bit worried still learning that she was having the tattoo finished today and looking for some advice as to whether it will...

So I've just had a summerhouse custom build for me as a home salon... (Ill include a photos just because I'm so proud of it!) But anyway... My friend mentioned that being out in the cold at night etc could damage it. Can anyone advise if this is true and what you do if you work from an outside...

Ive done a little search (from my phone) and cant see much on this subject. As we all know its vital to get the right chair to do nails in, both for ourselves as well as our clients. I've been using some bentwood chairs from argos for the past year and they match my colour scheme but I...

Anyone heard of this?! There's a local salon that has on their Facebook page that they're promoting clients to pay £3 more for this seal to prevent lifting. My first thoughts was that it was an OPI equivalent to NSI Glaze n Go that just leaves a high shine on acrylics but if this stuff exists...

Someone posted this on Facebook and I thought it was brilliant. Clients are always asking "how much is this, that and the other" so I thought it was spot on so I wanted to share with you all :) x

Hi everyone I've been doing pedicures for a year now but I have to admit the hard skin removal is not my favourite part as I don't enjoy using the metal foot files - I just don't like the results sometimes. A few years back I had a mobile therapist around that had an electric foot file which...

I rarely raise a new topic on here as I know there's gallons already on spray tanning but I've done a search and nothing that has been asked specifically. I'm going to BeautyUK next Monday and planning to buy my kit since I qualify next month. I've researched SG for weeks and weeks finding...

So I've done searches both on SG and on google but still feel I need some answers so was hoping I could get some help. Im doing Beauty Level 2 and we're coming up to the end of our waxing section of the course and have just been shown hot wax (I LOVE it!) and here's the questions that I haven't...

Hi everyone. Apologies if this sounds super thick or it's been asked before (I have searched but can't seem to find the answer I need) I'm training for Beauty Level 2 - we're up to waxing now so I've been practising at home with my heater. I've been using the Hive Gold Wax (honey wax) but the...

I know you're going to laugh at me and maybe it's a long day... Blah blah blah... But I've just had an appointment booked for hot pink matte acrylics... I've googled the look and it looks very nice but then I'm thinking... (here's where you laugh) do I just file them and use my trusty sand...

Hi everyone Considering I only qualified a few months ago and have own room only as of last week, today was my first day of doing a full pedicure in the salon. A woman came in that usually has pedicures and was surprised that I didn't use a foot spa. We were trained to just use a clean and...

Is it just me that feels like they get put in a difficult situation? My friend asked me yesterday to get her a cuticle pusher like I have from the beauty supply place and she'd give me the money for it. She was a little shocked when I nicely told her no and she couldn't understand why. I...

This is my first topic... Eek! I'm new to the industry so forgive me if this is obvious but I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what could be causing the nails to look like this... I'm trying to get into the swing of contra indications for when i'm doing this full time so any help would be...
