hi please don't shoot me down, would it be classed as 'Messing' if I used my acrylic stripers to make nail art on top of the shellac colour, should it really only be shellac colours used to do this??

Hi just recently trained with shellac, tidying cream puff smile line with dsperce and small brush which looks great, however I find that the dsperce is bleeding/staining the white I'm removing over the nail plate. Any advice on where I'm going wrong. Hence the title it's as tho I'm chasing the...

Hi I'm just starting to charge for acrylic nails on family and friends etc. However, after chatting with a friend I found out that there are some places in the Glasgow area charging £10 for a full set of acrylics or gels. Now I'm thinking that's pretty low, and I know my work's far from...
