That's great Solsken - thanks for the advice everyone!

Thanks everyone. Am I right in saying to her that if she changes the colour too much it may not last so well even if she uses acetone free remover?

OK great - thanks. So you just do the foundation and then 2 top coats? Do you charge her any less?

My client on Friday would like to have Gelish but wants to keep changing to different colour nail polishes on her holiday so I have recommended that I do the exactly same treatment but miss out the colour gel and just maybe put 2 coats of TIO on instead. Has anyone tried this and do you think...

If you still wanted to advertise on your car you could always design your own. Vistaprint do car magnets which are very reasonably priced. I advertise my other business of bouncy castles on my car and get quite a bit of business from it.

I do do it just the same - strange ... maybe my glitter is not so smooth x

Just about how I do it Kelly except I have to buff at the end to stop it feeling bumpy. Any idea as to how come yours end up smooth without buffing? Thanks.

Tried this method last night for my own nail repair. I did find that the rest of the nail was quite raised though as there was quite a build up of colour as I didn't like just putting the colour on the chipped area so I then used some structure gel on that area to fill it in, then another...

Me too! I get a great even coverage after 4 coats too.

I've been practicing this lately and found the best method for me is: foundation coat, cure, then sculpture gel dipped in the glitter and brushed on, cure then another sculpture gel dipped in foundation to fully cover the nail, cure then with buffer buff the whole nail until smooth then Top It...

Great question as I've tried it on myself before (1st finger on right hand which ALWAYS annoyingly goes first) but I found it chipped again quite quickly. That was without the foundation on the repair. However, maybe it would be better to put the foundation on first. Can anyone else give any...

Great thanks Dol for explaining that to me :lol:

and ... what does ombre mean?

Sorry if I'm sounding dumb but what does burnish mean?

That looks beautiful - well done! Can anyone tell me the best way of getting the "sprinkled" glitter look please. Thanks.

Thanks - did you mean you always put a colour under? Why would this be necessary if the nail is completely covered with glitter? Confused.com :wink2:

Thanks Cloughers. Did you see my other thread though as I am now confused as to if rockstar is full glitter or just colour with glitter sprinkled on top? Need to get my pricings right! Thanks.

Hi Guys - sorry if I sound a bit dumb here but just need to get my facts right about Rockstar. Does Rockstar mean completely covering the nail in glitter i.e. no colour needed as only the glitter is on show or does it also mean colour sprinkled with glitter? I see a pricing thread re rockstar...

Reading with interest! The Vitagel's not sounding very promising at the moment from what I hear? Any more views?

How much do you charge for Gelish rockstar nails? Just practised for the first time doing them today and really love them so now need to have a price ready. I am mobile and currently charge £18 for colour or £22 for french. Based on those prices how much do you think I should charge for (1)...
