    1st wedding trial yesterday

    Did you charge them for the trial? I find if I charge for trail then offer redeemable on wedding day treatment I then get bookings. If I do free trial I don't see them again as I've just shown them how to do it themselves for free.

    Adelaide Gelish suppliers

    I'm not sure if Surmanti can Be mixed but it's very reasonably priced, I bought 10 colours to start with and was given 2 free so only paid for 8. The girls at Avalon are very helpful if you ring them rather than order online for the first order.
