    Gel nail peeled

    I'm not sure about Gellux, but Gelish have a ph bond product that is used to dehydrate the nail plate in order to reduce lifting. Sorry I worded that wrong, I meant to put lightly buffing the nail might help smooth out some ridges, my apologies will edit that!

    Booking in too late - how do I handle?

    Yes I do agree that I have learned to be more forthright with clients from this experience as not everybody thinks the same. I did explain that it was busy and she would have to book in but I should have just said 'Ok you really need to let me know if this is a definite appointment every week'...

    Gel nail peeled

    Hello! That happens a lot, all you can do is try and prevent it from happening again, which you are attempting right now so well done to you! :) Do you also buff the nail before application as that is an important step to take. Also make sure you get the primer on the entire nail surface...

    Booking in too late - how do I handle?

    Yeh she is not seeing reason! She says she doesn't understand what I mean as she contacted me about the appointment. :S but two days isn't enough time as other people book in all the time! rar!

    Booking mobile clients through text or Facebook?

    I book all my clients through Facebook as I find it easier to obtain information from them as I don't want to miss hear their address etc. So yes I find it much easier because I can always go back to the message to double check things. Also you have proof of anything they say such as giving you...

    Booking in too late - how do I handle?

    Booking in too late - how do I handle?

    Thanks for your reply! Ok I'll try that, what you said sounds fair and not rude at all. She is now saying I should of just assumed that she would take the appointment! I previously tried to get her to agree to a 'set in stone' appointment but she wasn't responding. If someone says 'I want this...

    Booking in too late - how do I handle?

    Hi everyone, I have a new client I have been going to on a Thursday for the last 5 weeks. I have said about 3 times now face to face and through Facebook, could she let me know if she wants the appointment every Thursday as a kind of 'set in stone appointment' as Thurs and Friday are very busy...

    The Nail & Beauty Link

    Just wondered if anyone had any more opinions on the TNBL website? I bought something from the website last week. Black shadow Gelish, base coat and top it off. The only reason I bought from here is because they had a stand at beauty awards. The bottle is bang on genuine, the product seems...

    Mobile tech going to men's homes?

    I'm mobile and I have carried out spray tans for men, but only if his female partner has booked him in along with herself, or If I know them. I would not be bothered if a man was insulted if I didn't want to book him as it makes complete sense why I shouldn't. I would love to add men to my...

    Increase your Facebook likes and encourage interaction.

    Really enjoyed reading this article, thank you. I agree, the more fans you have, the more appealing you seem to potential customers and your profile photo (logo) and cover photo will get around too encouraging more people who are interested in beauty to 'like' your page. Something I...

    Blonde fringe-yay or nay? Pics

    Theres a link to faceshapes image if anyone needs it. I agree with yourself and everyone in the forum, face shape is what it is all about! :) Gemma Arterton has a strong jaw and suits it but also Rachel McAdams has a heart shaped face and suits a fringe as well. Regular maintenance is...

    Mixing OPI colour with Gellux system

    I agree, it might not work so well as the consistency might be iffy. How about doing a tester on Fake models?

    Hair extensions - worth taking the course?

    I agree with Stephanie (many horror stories about poor service), your client base is built on recommendations so buy great hair and give the appropriate amount of time to your client. Micro loops are great to start out with, they are so easy to put in that even non-experts are doing it...

    Hair thickening products

    I have the same problem. I realize that everyone loses about 100 strands of hair a day, for me I can't afford to loose any!! I've never tried any supplements for it, but if you can be extra careful when you wash, brush or style your hair and you wont loose as much hair. I often only shampoo the...
