    Claiming LVL

    This happened to me once with HD Brows... one of my clients who was a therapist used to copy literally every treatment I did. I’d paid over the odds for my HD brow course, yet she was offering it for half the price but not actually trained. I told HD Brows knowing they take it very seriously...

    Treatments for staff

    Acrylic timing

    The discount salons always do them that quick but they use those horrible drills which are probably taking half the nail plate off!! I would be happy sitting for 2 hours if it meant they were being done properly. X

    Anyone used a free website company?

    I have always used yola for a free website and every new client who hasn’t come from recommendation has said they found the salon through my website being at the top of google and very professional looking and nicely displayed. I pay a very small fee for my domain per year and that’s it. I just...
