If you google Big Red Beauty you'll find a site where you can purchase Tantrick and Tandare. My clients love Tantrick too :)

Hi geeks just popped over to see if anyone can offer any advice. My sister has quite fine hair and for the last few years she has had pretty bad dandruff. Even though she has dandruff her hair goes greasy the day after she washes it. To drive her even more insane she now also has these little...

Decision made - went with the new DVD and purchased some Berodin hard wax at the same time :)

Hi Lysa.G the skin patch tests sound like the way to go... do you know where you can buy them from?

Just wondering if any experienced geek has seen The Whole Ball of Wax and the latest DVD's by Lori Nestore Advanced Speed Waxing: Face & Body? I'm going to invest in one and not sure which one to go for, I want to be sure the latest DVD's are as indepth as The Whole Ball of Wax. Any advice...

Some fantastic tips, thanks everyone :) I'll definately be using the hair dryer suggestion, Kim. Wish I would have had that tip in time for my wax disaster, it would have been really useful :) Anything that's less hassle certainly works for me Angelina ;) So do most people decant their wax...

So how does everyone clean their equipment because trying to get the wax off even just the inside of the removeable pot with that spray of options equipment cleaner was difficult. Everywhere was sticky even my hair lol

Angelina and BABSann thanks for the great advice :) I haven't got a full palette of colours just yet but I have got grey so I'll add a bit to the next brown case study and see how that works out :)

Hi I'm new to tinting brows and lashes too and I've just done two case studies using Refectocil natural brown. On one client who has brown hair I left it about six minutes and it came out very dark almost black. Then I used it on a client who had slightly lighter hair and left it on for around...

Hi Angelina - thanks for the info about the heater. I'm sorry for being duh but I'm not sure I understand how you use your wax? Do you decant just enough for the treatment and if so how do you get the the pot clean, because trying to get the wax off everything was a nightmare!

lwoody lol it was awful :( green tea tree creame wax everywhere. I'm going to be working mobile so I'll be doing a bit of moving about and I'm worried about spills. The highest setting on this hive heater is six, so do I just put it on six and leave it there till I've finished working? That's...

I recenlty did brow training, but it didn't cover how to manage the wax, pots and heater and today I ended up having a disaster and getting it everywhere. I couldn't get the lid off the honey wax pot so I put it in the heater to warm up (inside the inner tin), but then I couldn't get it out...

Just to update the thread... I received a response to my email from BABTAC: [As you are a full member, any case studies you do are automatically covered (providing we insure for the treatment) and we insure the treatment you have mentioned. You must inform the client that they are a...

I think Purebeauty's advise about checking out YouTube videos is a great idea. Seeing technique is always a bit easier than reading it - you just have to be sure the videos you're watching are by quality practioneers ;)

If they take the youngsters between 16 -18 the apprenticeship is fully funded, for someone between 18 - 24 they only get 50% funding. I'm 25 and I contacted a hairdressing school a couple of weeks ago and they offered me an apprenticeship so it looks like it is a do-able you just have to keep...

Do it, if it's what you want just go for it :) Hey Inspired - I trained in hairdressing when I left school and completed the NVQ level 2. To be honest like a lot of people have said I didn't really know what I wanted out of life then and didn't take to it, so gave it up. I'm now doing...

Hi sparadise, you must go and speak to the course co-ordinator you are paying for a service this woman isn't doing you a personal favour. My experience has been that most bullies pick on the people they can and leave the others alone. So once you have spoken to the co-ordinator and got your...

Hi thanks all for the great responses :) As I explained I am currently insured with BABTAC for semi-permanent eyelash extensions and spray tanning so do have some insurance. I was looking to find out if that same insurance would cover me for the procision brows case study procedures...

Good thinking on the disclaimer beauty_sarah I'll get those done now. I would ring the insurance company anyway but I just wanted to find out what over more experienced people thought before I did. I like to go into a conversation of any kind with a bit of understanding about what I'm talking...

Training done - now just let me at them brows and lashes lol
