    iZ gel by Calgel?

    Hi, I don't want to get in another system for colour, I just want something to use underneath or over the top. I actually got sent a sample of it and have been using it with good results. I'm going to try it over the shellac this time instead of under. Thanks!

    iZ gel by Calgel?

    I'm looking for something else aswell to replace Brisa light smoothing gel. So if I were to use this with shellac I wouldn't use the shellac base coat? I would go straight in with this? Has anyone used it with shellac and had good results?

    Gel to replace Brisa Light Smoothing Gel?

    No I'm sure it's both, I have spoken to a trainer who works at the centre in glasgow and she confirmed its both that are discontinued.

    Gel polish - which brands do you offer?

    This is something that has been troubling me about Shellac, it just isnt for everyone. Myself included! I am on the lookout for something that offers more structure, is this made by gelish? How do you think it would be under shellac?

    Gel to replace Brisa Light Smoothing Gel?

    Hi guys, its been a while since ive posted or came onto salon geek at all. I am looking for some advice about what to use instead of brisa light smoothing gel now that it has been discontinued.

    Matte top coat

    I found buffing with a CND glossing buffer worked really well. I tried with a koala and it didn't work so well, glossing buffer done it really quickly.

    MAC foundation?

    Hi I'm not a makeup artist but I use this personally. I would say my skin is combination with it being mostly normal bit oily on the t-zone. I really enjoy this foundation and have repurchased. I normally use studio fix but have been enjoying the more dewy finish and less coverage. I also found...

    Card reader management advice

    hi geeks, So I have been self employed for a while but always used the card reader provided in salon and the manager just gave me the money back. Now I have ordered myself one of the mobile card readers from world pay zinc. I am just thinking I would have maybe been better not putting it...

    CND Shellac Top Coat Xpress 5 vs original top coat?

    Do you not find the acetone eats through your nitrile gloves?

    CND Shellac Top Coat Xpress 5 vs original top coat?

    I bought it today aswell but haven't really compared. I might still buy the original to use on myself to protect my own nails a bit more because of it being that bit more porous. I must start wearing gloves when doing removals and things.

    CND LED lamp pulse light?

    I don't know why it is but the top coat pulses for 10 seconds and then counts from 50 seconds as I watched it today because I was confused when it started pulsing. It's weird there's different settings for top coat and colour too, I only got mines today so don't really know the full science...

    Nutribullet

    Im thinking of getting one of these. I have the breville one mentioned earlier but this one seems better. Has anyone seen one recently for a good price?

    Show us your website!

    This is mines all finished with logo and things. I made it myself using weebly and it seems to do me well, I rank highly for things like shrinking violet wrap and not so much for some more popular searches. But a lot of my clients seem to like it and a good few people find me so that's good :)

    Traumatic wax experience

    I've had this before, was it just right at the little bit above the labia? I don't know what to call the area lol. I find it can happen if the person has quite long hair on that part, so you would give that a trim before starting. Also I've found it can happen if the person has quite loose skin...

    Intimate waxing questions

    I'm not getting narky I'm just getting my point across that's all. How you feel as a client will transpire over to your clients, that's why I am saying just get over it and act as if is totally normal to you. You cannot really be discreet with the way Kim teaches you. It's a Hollywood wax so the...

    Intimate waxing questions

    Also I find the lifting leg way a bit awkward and as for lying on your front parting your bum cheeks, this is awkward for the client I feel. But whatever works for you.

    Intimate waxing questions

    I don't warn people because I think your expecting them to say no if you do that. I say to them we will be removing from the front and the back and then when they're on the bed I ask them to get into position. I never say "get on all fours please". I think if you are embarrassed then your...
