I use Paul Mitchell Super Skinny serum in my hair. It has a light scent that is definitely unisex. A little goes a long way - I'm not even a quarter of the way through the 250 ml bottle I bought in October.

The silly part comes in when you try to move from state to state and the requirements trip you up. ;) Yes, you probably would. Most states work on an hours system...in mine, North Carolina, you have to do 1,500 hours in school. Many will let you use a certain number of work hours to count for so...

That really depends on which state you moved to. They all have different licensing requirements. Some may make you go back to school, re-take the exams, etc. It all depends on the state and your actual situation.

I'm not sure if CosmoProf or SalonCentric would accept a UK certificate. They might...all you can do is try! I've used Verb...I really like it, and a bit of Onesta, but only on myself. I currently use O&M, however.

I don't think Verb or Onesta are available outside of the US yet. Even cheaper from CosmoProf or SalonCentric. ;)

Booth rental is a good way to go, but only if you have the ability to pay the rent (of course) and have somewhat of a client base. You can do it without a clientele, but I would only recommend it in a place you can build one. You are free to use whatever products you like, set your own hours...

In the US, Matrix Color Sync now shares the same developer as SoColor, but I don't know if it's the same in the UK. TIGI copyright colour's permanent and demi lines share the same developer.

You can do from 1:1 to 1:2, depending on the consistency you want.

If the Ministry of Training of Colleges and Universities is your hairdressing regulatory body, then I'm guessing they have the final say in a situation such as yours. What is the Ontario College of Trades? How do they relate to the MTCU? Perhaps you could take your query up with them.

If perm solution is left on the hair for too long, it can actually break the disulfide bonds so much that the hair will be left straight and not able to hold a curl. Further processing will just make the hair straighter. I'm not saying that is what happened here, as I don't know the condition of...

I don't know why they would do it like that. It seems silly. All I can think is that they're trying to be different.

I know. I was just commenting on the difference between the areas in the countries. Sorry if I caused any confusion.

It's interesting seeing the prices charged in England compared to the ones around here in North Carolina. I was paying $95 a week, which is about £58 right now. The highest I've heard of in the immediate area is $125/£75 a week.

I'd probably just do a uniform layer cut, then texturise it.

I know. My point was just that the ammonia free colour in one line might not be necessarily the same as the ammonia free colour in another line. I would certainly hope not, anyway!

If you can tell us what format the document is in, we might be able to help you figure out why it won't let you edit it.

Pages is excellent on OS X. I've never tried it on an iPad. What kind of files won't it let you open?

I know Matrix is owned by L'Oreal, but that doesn't mean the products are the same. L'Oreal also own Redken, and L'Oreal Professionel, Redken and Matrix are all sold in SalonCentric, and Matrix and Redken are sold in CosmoProf, here in the USA. What would be the point in having three brands if...

You could try Matrix COLORINSIDER. I have seen hairdressers speak positively of it. Salon Supplies, Alan Howard, and Aston and Fincher stock it.

I took my state board exams in North Carolina, so I can't speak for California specifically, but these are my tips: 1. REMEMBER YOUR SANITATION! It is extremely important, and could mean the difference between passing and failing if you forget to sanitize your hands, close the trash bag...
