    Gel polish, anyone experience just 1 nail that won't cure with any system?

    Thanks for your replies. No the bulbs are clean, I'm using the correct wavelength lamp for the products. Every other client is fine. It first happened with this client a week ago, finally managed to cure by almost basing the nail in sculpting gel, but the edge has lifted and now even that won't...

    Gel polish, anyone experience just 1 nail that won't cure with any system?

    I'm so frustrated and at a total loss with this one. I use Shellac, Gellish and Jessica Geleration. My client has 1 nail (unfortunately middle one :rolleyes: ), that just won't cure properly. I've tried basing the nail in builder/sculpting gel, top coat, then buff and reapply colour. It worked...

    Shellac Cerise Pink

    Both very pink, but hot pop is a creme colour, tutti frutti is a shimmery pearlised colour. I would check what your customer would prefer.

    Can you critique my new website please? (:

    Looks good. I actually quite like the font. Maybe it's because I'm older and prefer the handwritten look.:o You need to strike a balance between being easy on the eye, but still being aesthetically pleasing, both to potential customers and yourself. There's far too many sterile looking websites...

    Cheap alternative

    They're expensive for a reason Liza. I know you may think Oh it's just a manicure/pedicure. But there is so much you need to know. Contraindications, skin disorders you'll need to be able to spot. How would you deal with a mani client who came in with really bad onycholysis on one of her...

    Mixing different brand monomer and polymer

    Agree with Baggybear entirely. Have you asked your supplier how quickly they can get it too you, an emergency order. I'm sure your clients will be understanding if it's a one off. I usually order my replacement products way before I run out, so there are no slip ups, but then I'm quite anal...

    Nail tech in distress

    Another thought is where do you get your hair done? Are their clientelle the kind that you are after? I'm just starting to do a treatment swap with a local hairdresser. As well as getting my haircut into the deal, I will have a walking talking advert for my nails. She's happy to take my business...

    Gelish Magneto - Can I use with CND lamp?

    If you check on their website I'm pretty sure you can, but it takes a bit longer than with their super powered one. The same as shellac. Gelish Soak Off Gel

    What does your crystal pedi comprise of?

    I do two types of pedicures, CND Spa pedi, and Footlogix Wellness Pedi. Spa is long and luxurious - 75mins with normal polishing, Footlogix is quick but EXTREMELY effective - 50-60mins with normal polishing. I've chosen to only do Footlogix pedi with Crystal Finish. Timewise and result wise it...

    Shellac Contra Indications Help!

    I would have thought if she's having chemotherapy that you should ask for a doctors note to say if she's ok to have this treatment, some say no excess chemicals near the body. Check directly with S2, ring them, to ask for specific Shellac contraindications if you can't find them on the website...:)

    Beginner needs help!

    I trained with Star Nails first then did a CND conversion course in 2000 and haven't looked back since. Also kept doing further training, in Sculpting, proper rebalancing, airbrushing etc. I personally would really recommend the Creative Academys and training programme. Take a look at them, your...

    Just nails, should I rename my business?

    Thanks for your replies. I do feel it needs changing, just not sure what to. I fancy something distinctive sounding, but still using my name at the end. Had a chat with family today, I quite like the idea of using colour, particularly red in the name as my work area is red themed (towels...

    Is there aftercare advice for Shellac?

    That's really lovely and generous of you.:hug: Thank you in advance.:biggrin: I'm thinking about getting a set of free business cards from somewhere like vistaprint with aftercare advice printed on the back.

    Just nails, should I rename my business?

    Hi all, apologies to the mods if this should be elsewhere, was erring between here and Bizz section. I used to have my own business but had a break for a few years due to building extension on house and having and raising 2 gorgeous wee girls (kept my hand in with family & friends though.) I'm...

    Who is the best company for insurance?

    Take a look at BABTAC and Professional Beauty. When I was self employed doing all treatments I was with BABTAC, they are also a professional body so good for news, updates in the industry etc. Now i only have room to do non intimate treatments, so sticking to hands and feet. I've insured with...

    Android apps

    Not sure about android apps, but take a look here. You would be able to access your booking page, but not sure how accessable it would be on a smaller screen. As it's free, there's no harm in signing up and having a look I would think. Hope it helps...

    Simple salon software

    Looks very interesting, I came online last night to find a simple software solution for a sole trader. Will you be offering upgrades to EPOS software at a later date, so we can track retail sales tie everything all together? Not what I need now, but might be good know there are plans. Are...
