I've used a Wella Contura small trimmer, on my Level 3 Hairdressing Course. Can anyone recommend another small trimmer that is as good, but cheaper... I've looked around at the prices and its no wonder I liked it, as they are pretty darn expensive. lol

I wouldn't charge for a different colour on one nail, but if any art is involved then yes I charge from 25p / 50p upto £1 a nail (more if its a feather with a lot of other details etc) All depends on the time taken..

Some techs cap the free edge with too many layers, then that causes chipping..

You have to use special polishes! Although 4 of 'The Special' pokishes from Barry M work. Do not go buying their regular polishes though, as they wouldn't work! (Barry M's special colours are Gold, silver, pink & lilac. Their pink though I dislike as it is pale)..

I can't speak for Gelish, but Shellac was never designed for use on clients nails, that are weak, flakey or bendy. Thats why I use Bio Sculpture Gel, as it has been designed to suit all nail types. Whats more Bio is the Original everlasting manicure, which was formulated over 25 years ago, and...

Sounds like nail dehydration. Is the client not using Solar Oil 2-3 times daily?

It's their Brisa Gel range (The first gel that can truly be called Hypoallergenic) Not sure if this link will work click here; Search Results

CND have a hypogeneic product, but to be fair your better off learning to work more 'cleanly'. My face too will react if I rub my face if I've had gels / removers etc on my face.. I just ensure I wear gloves & do not rub my face until they have been washed...

Her nails are dehydrated. She needs to use nail oil something like Solar Oil. All clients should be recommended to use an oil because that is part of the needs whilst having their nails done. (Much like a lady having a colour on their hair, the hair needs conditioning too - nail are exactly the...

Add yourself to the Bio Sculpture Group (on this forum), loads of Bio techs on there. They should be able advise... I think my Bio LED ( Igloo shape )is 12w, but to be honest I don't know if theres more to it with these LED lamps

Lovely, really hope the clients come flocking in & you do a smashing job :)

If you want to do a rose, then using a dotting tool (or the end of a cocktail stick) make a circle 1cm /1.5 cm wide, then cure. Once cured with a fine brush, do a letter S on the top in a different colour, add a couple of 'C' 's around the rest of the outer circle to create a Rose design ...

I wouldnt class them as one stroke art.. They are more like Shellac splodged into a zone & a thin art brush dragged through the white back into the pink. If I was you I would literally have a play on a piece of clear plastic (A4 page plastic cover is great)... You can actually cure things that...
