    Tunic recommendations - true to size please x

    Have ordered from simon jersey, the wraparound ones are pretty true to size but the tunic side button I would go at least a size up or maybe 2 as they can be tight on arms when bending and across chest with boobs! X

    Actually training on CND training courses

    Mine was at the CND academy in north London, the Shellac Attack class with Ketan.

    New start up: What profit share percentage?

    It depends where you are in the country really but I would say that is a pretty generous offer.

    Owner/managers! - what would make a candidate stand out?

    In addition you could say, I know you must have a lot of people interviewing for this role, I would be happy/pleased to do a trial day to see if I fit in with your salon'. I have taken on people who fit in well with the team. Always be friendly to EVERYONE in the salon, receptionist/cleaner/whoever.
