    Eureka moment

    Hi Geeks. I spent lockdown designing a special shield to protection when doing couch treatments on the face (and when client is face up). It freak the hell out of me that these face shields have zero coverage underneath, so while we are protected from the client if they sneezed and we were...

    Still getting calls for appointments

    Seriously. My aunt is out there seeing people with COVID seizing and stroking all day everyday. She’s utterly shattered and working nights and it’s only the beginning. They aren’t allowed to help them breathe in the ambulances because it aerosolises that virus so they can’t clean it away...

    Claiming on your insurance

    Not client related as in they are making a claim on you... But have you ever claimed on your insurance for a piece of equipment etc that broke or something went wrong? I’m just wondering if it would affect the payments you make or whether it’s worth it or it is better to replace damaged items.

    Orly GelFX Builder in a Bottle

    I’ve seen some adverts for the Builder in a bottle, soak off gel. It says that it’s suitable for all levels of skilled technicians. I was trained in GelFX years ago and looking at videos by orly it looks simple enough to do with forms. Is anyone using it? Thoughts? Also is it really suitable...

    Hi Geeks, I’ve just got my certificates for my latest courses and want to display them. There are so many I’ve not bothered before as the shorter course ones looked like a massive advert for the training academy (huge bold writing taking up whole page with their name), so now I have some less...
