    How do I get new clients?

    It's nailpro - all one word. It's hard to find in the listings as there are a lot of nail games, etc first. Just keep scrolling!! ;)

    Difficult client tips, please

    I had a brand new (older) client get a Shellac on hands and feet last Thursday (22nd Aug). She contacted me 3 days later to say that 3 of her nails had chipped. I asked her if she could take a photo of them and send it to me so that I could assess the nails. She said she couldnt so I said I...

    Next Step?

    I trained with them - did my Complete Nail Tech course with them. I though they were very good, especially for the price they were charging. I did what I thought was a lot of research on courses out there but in hindsight I really didn't have a clue. If I knew then what I know now I would have...

    I don't do U14s and U16s must have parental permission..... Just my choice.

    New to Shellac, advice on price to charge?

    Do you charge more for layering?

    Favorite Shellac layering combos?

    Can I ask if people charge extra for layering or do you just include them as your "normal" colours?

    Shellac fix

    I am not questioning my work, as I have never had this happen before, and I know I should be a strong business woman but I have only just started up on my own and I rent a room in a salon so am still new to the business side of things. She took a few of my business cards when she came as she was...

    Shellac fix

    Hi Geeks, Started Shellac in November and this has never happened to me before, so not sure what to do. I did a new clients nails on Thurs and she sent me this picture today to show me what happened them. She is a waitress, so I assume there is no using them as "tools" in her job. She wants to...

    Part time Shellac, Dublin

    I am working in a nail salon in Dublin for 3.5 days a week. Currently I am only doing Shellac as the clients who come into the salon only want Shellac. I am a fully qualified nail technician but have not used other systems in over a year so my confidence is lacking. I am looking to fill the rest...

    Do Shellac season colours continue?

    Apparently Ruby Ritz, from the Christmas collection, was so popular that it is becoming a permanent colour!!

    Top 10 Shellac colours?

    Popular colours (in no particular order) Masquerade Tutti Fruitti Gotcha Tropix Black pool Purple Purple Lilac Longing Azure Wish Wildfire Hotski to Tchotchke Romantique (both in French and on its own) But I think the pastel colors are only popular in summer. If you asked again in Winter, my...

    Sleeping during Shellac

    I did have the occasional chuckle to myself when I was working on her and she was asleep, sometimes mouth open, but it just got annoying after a while. Sometimes she would acknowledge what I was doing and "help" me with her hand in and out of the lamp, but most of the time it was dead weight...

    Sleeping during Shellac

    Oh my God, I have just had a customer who fell asleep while I was doing a Shellac on hands and feet. She said she was out the night before and up early to take her niece and nephew out for the day. I do feet on my massage table and I didnt realised she had fallen asleep until her feet kept...

    Substitute for a pedicure chair?

    I do my Shellac on my massage table. I only do dry work, no soaking so it works for me. The head of the table lifts up so my clients sit at a very comfortable angle, they bend at the knee and place their feet flat. So far so good (only started this way last month!)

    Flirties or Nouveau lashes?

    I'd also like opinions. I'm hoping to do a course with either of them or Lash Perfect.
