    Would you change anything?

    I wouldn't buy everything just because I wanted it, I've got the same 100 odd glitters I bought 3yrs ago, I went through 3 gel brands because I jumped on a bandwagon. I'd ask myself if I really needed things or if I want them, id also start saving as I tend to be really wasteful. I've been on...

    Pre-teen waxing

    I wouldn't recommend waxing as she won't want to have to grow the hair in for 4wks at a time with dancing, with shaving you can be hair free all the time x

    How long to allow for appointments when starting out?

    My 1st Hollywood took an hr and a half but now its half an hr. I'd book out an hr and a half for a full leg too as for me there would come a point half way through where I would get myself in a mess of wax and oil and lose hope so I needed extra time x

    Perron Rigot nacree blanche

    That just takes time and causes a mess, spatulas are less than a penny each so just use once and bin or wrap tissue round one end and use twice x

    Perron Rigot nacree blanche

    I started on crustal ocean and hated it as it's so runny, the pr trainer then told me that they would recommend that for people that are really experiencedon't waters so I've worked my way through all the perron waxes and I agree the mojito is the best x

    Waxing disaster

    My 1st full leg and bikini took 2hrs and i wanted to die, now it takes an hr and 10 minutes. I find having a set plan really helps, I do backs of calf's, backs of thighs, flip over and do front of one calf, knee, front of thigh then same on other leg. Get the client to do a frog leg, put bikini...

    Tan didn't last

    I recently sprayed 3 girls with Nouvatan spray tan, 2 ladted fine but the 3rd girls lasted 2 days even though she followed the same aftercare as the other girls. I'm wondering if the length of the tan can be effected by a persons skin colour as this girl was super pale and I was wondering if...

    Cringe moment

    I had a brand new, really pale client in for a tan last week so I mixed up what I thought was 10% (nouvatan) but whilst prepping for a new client today I've just realised I mixed up 16% instead! She would have been ridiculously dark! I'm mortified! I've not heard from her but when she was in we...

Luckily she came back a.d I've waxed her about 9 times now, her hair is still the same but it takes 25 mins now. A few things that have helped me are getting...

    How many gel polish colours is your sweet spot?

    I have about 60 which I don't even think is many but I have a few that I haven't even opened and I have a slight panic every year when I see a few approaching their BB date and I try and suggest them to people, if a colour isn't popular though I just replace it with something else either when it...

    Stocking Rescue RXx and IBX, who do you retail to?

    Hiya, I currently do IBX manis and a few of my clients who have had the treatment due to damaged nails have said they are desperate to repair their nails but couldn't afford to have the treatment done weekly or fortnightly which I would recommend until the splits have healed and are therefore...

    What do you do with constantly late clients?

    I tend to leave half an he between apps and this is because I never know how detailed my clients nail art will be so sometimes it takes me a lot longer and I don't want to over run. Its fine for now because I'm not fully booked x

    Hey everyone, a while ago I came across a thread that mentioned some sort of cream or mask that removed downy hairs on the face etc and had similar effects to waxing but I can't remember what it was, if anyone knows please put me out my misery lol x
