    Where are the other suppliers?

    It's been a very long time since I posted on here, why? Because some silly little girl decided she needed to rip into me in order to make herself feel better. I have never put up with that sort of rubbish from anyone, so my choice, I left here. Am I still a nail tech? Yes, I'm now reaching the...

    Spray tan issues-new customer

    What make of shower gel does she use, I can never remember the name of the active ingredient but it's the one found in dove among others, if she uses one with that ingredient it will interfere with the dha absorption. Re the spotting, something caused the pores of her skin to be open, it's...

    Nouvatan or Tantrick

    Both are great products, both have top class trainers, products and after care, you can ring either company for help and expect to get it with a smile. So it comes down to how well 'you' get on with them and their products. So ring them for a chat, ring both companies, ask all your questions and...

    Thinking of setting up from home..now idea where to start

    Hi there, before you worry about doing a mani/pedi course, give sweet squared a ring. They may accept the qualification you hold in artificial nails. It will depend on who you trained with and what was covered but if you don't ask, you may end up spending money you don't need to. Will keep my...

    How long have you been in business

    On hold:) I always ran my business as a side line bit of sanity to balance my job as a bus driver. Following a crash, not my fault, I had to stop working on the buses and decided to take the plunge and go to college. So I'm not doing much with my little home salon until college finishes, next June.

    Mobile/home therapist - tax question

    Trust me darlin, that never changes:lol: it's always a leap, every time you learn something new, add a new retail range, change how you work, ie from mobile to salon. My advice is, sooner rather than later, the more time you give yourself to think, the harder it is to take the plunge. Insurance...

    Not blending tips

    Hello, first things first, the more tip that is on the nail the less strength, this is because the only thing holding the tip to the nail plate is the glue. Where as the acrylic bonds to the nail plate. So if you look at a nail side ways on, you will see that the un-blended well sits over the...

    Mobile/home therapist - tax question

    Hi there, it's been a while since I set up so I'm afraid I'm a bit hazy on what the law says. I strongly suggest you have a look on the hmrc web site about business start ups. That should tell you all the ins and outs, how far back before the business start up you can include receipts & training...

    Overweight in the beauty industry

    I don't know how more plainly I can put this. So try these examples; You know Susie, the fat one, is far, far different from saying You fat cow. One is an unflattering description the other is an insult. Your last point, why don't I try and loose some weight? This is why people shouldn't shoot...

    Overweight in the beauty industry

    For starters, if you are a size 18, and five foot tall (which I am) then you do get used to hearing people describe you as the tubby one, the fat one, no, I don't like it but it's the truth and its no more of an insult than being described as the older one or being mistaken for the tutor because...

    Overweight in the beauty industry

    My point is that the original poster wanted to know if her size was going to handicap her in the beauty industry. Other people taking offence over trivial points, choice of words is just that, trivial. There are far more important things in life. My aunt once had the misfortune to overhear...

    If I could do it all again

    The only thing I would have done differently is; I'd have done it 10 years earlier. I trained with CND, I bought a great couch, research is half the battle:D I'd have been a lot more careful with money. I'd have stood up to my husband a lot sooner:D Good luck with your future products and...

    I don't know if they do it but You switch are good for comparing so if you know who and what the last shop occupants had it will give you a starting point. Good luck with it and lets see some photo's, we love photo's :D
