    Can you dye a hair piece?

    I have a 100% human hair piece but have gone a shade lighter since buying it. Can I have it dyed the same colour with it being real hair?

She ask why, and...

    A client who never brings money!

    How do you deal with a client who never brings money, drops it in weeks later or says add it on my next service? In all the years I have been doing nails, this current client is a pain in my ****! She comes a minimum of 10 minutes late every time and on numerous occasions 'fogets' her money...

    Do you have a favourite customer?

    I have just finished for the day and my last client is my favourite. She brought a bottle of wine with her and I spend double the time with her, fit her in out of hours and give her freebies now and again. (only tidy ups though) She is turning into a really good mate and I would never have met...

    How do I tell them?

    I moved my business to home 7 months ago from a local salon, all my clients followed including three of the staff. Whilst I was renting there I only charged the staff for the cost of my products. My thinking was that if the clients see the staff with them on, they usually want them too. The...

    For money or pleasure?

    Just out of interest..... Probably everybody on this site and in the whole world has uttered the words...'if I won the lottery..' My fella asked me how much money would we have to win for me to give up nails. A million? I said no. Two or three? Maybe Eight- I'd carry on but only do for...

    Any techs from north wales?

    I have been searching for a missing relative who lived in Colwyn bay and have been searching the net for a year or so and because of his name being Jones, even agencies said they'd struggle. So does anyone know the best newspaper in that area that I could advertise in?

    Will someone do mine?

    I am really fed up with doing my own nails, after seven years I've decided that I will no longer be a fuss pot and see if I could rediscover that excitment I used to get from having my nails done before I trained. So does anyone know of a really great sculpter near Warrington or Manchester?

    Marriage proposals?

    I have recently got engaged and am planning my wedding, but my fella didn't propose. We've been together four years have a two year old and no mention of marriage. So I kept hinting and eventually turned to pestering, and then even said I don't want a proposal, lets just book it. So I got '...

    Towels, how often do you change?

    I have just read a thread on NSS salons and it says that one thing to identify one is that they don't have a new towel for each client. I use one towel a day, but have bed roll and change that three times for each client. What do you all do? Am i being manky or what?

    Weight always on your mind?

    Coversations with clients tend to vary but weight is always a topic that never fails to keep us gossiping for a full hour. I have recently gone from 10.7 to 9 stone and felt fantastic and loved all the compliments, but now have found that I feel fat again, even though not put any on. Is it...
