    Why I cant compete with the 20minute wonderboy.....

    I had a visit from a lady yesterday, her and her daughter go to an NSS for tip and L&P overlays with a gel top coat. They have both been having this done every 10 days for the past 3 years or so, and every three months he removes the tips completely to replace with a new set. He does not blend...

    have you ever watered down spray tan solution?

    A tan tech mate of mine was telling me the other day how one of her 8% ladies came in as a walk in, and she had ran out of 8% so used 10% slightly watered down and the result was great, the client was none the wiser and so chuffed she came in for a top up a few days later! I have never heard...

    panicking about trade test - advice needed about creme wax

The lady that owns the salon has asked me to go in on Friday to give her a facial and a half leg. They have creme wax there at present, and as I'm a PHD gal it's been yonks since I used pot...

    she pulled her L&P off with water....?

    Just had a girl ring me, her mate did her nails for free last week, white tips with L&P overlay (from what I can gather) and she said she kept them on for a week then used water and brute force to pull them off. I dont think she will be ringing me back for an appt (she squealed at my prices) but...

    BTec geeks, come on down!

    Thought I would start this thread for us BTec geeks to talk about our experiences on the course, and perhaps help geeks who are currently studying for it. There seems to be a lot of NVQ geeks here, and the NVQ's do differ from BTec, so here we go! I finished my BTec course last year at Lincoln...

    advice about tipping please

    I have a client in on friday for a 4 week rebalance (brisa nno). She knows that she should have come in at 3 weeks but it was her choice not to. I think there must have been some lifting at the sides of her free edge on one of her nails as she picked up a bin, caught her nail and snapped off the...

    leg hair stopped growing??

    I had my legs waxed for 2 years, until June when I left college. Shaved them all through summer and winter, and had them waxed approx 6 weeks ago (by bf)......but nothing has happened!! No re-growth what so ever and I am sure this cant be normal as I shaved them for so many months! Can anyone...

    Major biter - what could I have done?

    ok, so I had a client yesterday who I have never seen before, she is a MAJOR biter! her nail plates were tiny and her finger ends were very bulbous. She wanted tips but I wasnt confident tipping her as I feared her bulbous fingers would just push them off. I couldnt sculpt as there was no free...

    how do I explain my price to a client?

    a few months ago, a lady started coming to me for a chin wax. At the time I was working for a salon - they always had waxing on half price, so it was about £2.20 for a chin wax. Now I have left the salon and gone mobile - but I also have a little cleaning job at a car showroom near me for 3...
