Hi I am looking for a blog I was reading about 2 months ago and now I can;t find it :( It was full of such wonderful information that the layman could really understand (ie the difference between Gel and L&P).
I am pretty sure her name was Di, and it was called Nailz2Di4 or something along...

I'm coming next month in the Global Nail Design Awards. I was just going to Enter the flat nail art section, but now I've decided to do both of the poster sections and the gel polish mani.
I'm a tad nervous as I am still studying, but my educator is really encouraging
I've been stung by this before too. Had been having gel for ages then wanted to try someone closer to home. This lady was in a Hairdressers, and she had the dipping powder and was charging gel prices for it. I am only just starting out in my career and have been going around getting price...

Yes I was terribly upset at having to give it up, it was all I wanted to do growing up.

I am allergic to PPD, had to give up my hairdressing career because of it. But inam still vain enough to out myself through the pain of having my hair colored. But I have now found a solution!!! I have a full head of foils so that the tint never actually touches my scalp!!!!
I plan on doing a VIP price list for those family an friends who have supported me by letting me practice on them whilst I am training. But everyone else will be getting charged full price.
