    Oil or powder?

    Yes true. I have been trying it, and the hairs seem to be coming out better. My colleague is one of the top waxers. So if it works for her it works for me [emoji4]

    Oil or powder?

    I have always used oil as a barrier before intimate hot waxing. A colleague of mine uses powder instead and works just as well. What’s people’s thought?

    Patch test reaction lash lift

    Maybe she touched the patch test area and then touched her eyes? I wouldn’t do it either as she might just come back and complain about it.

    Elderly client/dirty nails

    Poor you. I had a client like that. Lovely lady but it was unpleasant. I had to use lots of sanitising spray and wear gloves.

    Problems with LVL lashes

    It could be the size of your shield. What size did you use on those clients? My tutor recommended to use more of the small shields as you get a better curl. Also can I ask. With NOUVEAU LVL do you use damp cotton wool at the end to wipe the lashes?

    OPI GelColor help

    Can someone advise me on what am doing wrong. We use opi gel colours and really starting to dislike them. For example Lincoln park hates me. When I have finished with wiping the nails at the end they tend to go a bit dull and some parts are shiny. It happy with most dark colours. Why is that?

    Lash lift glue?

    Hi, I don’t use water to remove as the water brakes the bonds. I remove the perm solutions with dry cotton buds. Once it’s all removed I remove the glue from the rods and skin with the nourishing oil then brush the lashes. Also advise client not to rub, not to sleep on side to avoid squashing...

    Natural facelift massage

    I did a course on natural facelift massage but didn’t learn much. It was things I did all ready. There are lots of videos on YouTube and I have picked up some good techniques.

    Lash lift and tint disaster

    Maybe she had the eyelash lift too soon after the previous perm. And as they were over processed, needed more time for the lashes to recover. Maybe recommend to use the lash oil.

    Trimming eyelashes when doing a lash lift

    Don’t do it. I had my lashes done very badly and the lady cut them.I wasn’t happy by how they looked and had them removed by another salon. To my horror, once removed my own lashes had been cut in the process. I was so upset and had to wait ages for them to grow.

    Is using a lamp that can cure two hands at once any quicker?

    Sorry to change question but there are some colours that I have problems with. Even after shaking them for ages, when applied they seem to shrink away from sides and tips. How do I solve that problem? Any tips would be appreciated

    Rudest thing a client has ever said to you?

    I had a client once ask where I was from. I said South America and she asked if we lived in huts. She wasn't joking, I thought for someone who was upper class she sure was ignorant. I said no we don't live in huts and we hv use knives and forks like everyone else.
