    Lash lifting process

    Yeah that's the best way to do it, obviously it's hard to get right to the roots so if they're blonde lashes it may be best for them to come in 48 hrs later for you to tint them downwards. Don't tint them downwards straight after the lash lift as they are still setting and will not be as lifted x

    Make sure you're not applying perming solution to the tips of the lashes... Ask your clients if they are conditioning their lashes too? That has a big effect on how the lashes turn out and change x

    Thinking of converting from Shellac to Gelish - questions

    I think it's such a faff and time waster to have to file down the gel before you wrap to remove it, shellac is sooooo much easier

    Thinking of converting from Shellac to Gelish - questions

    I'm sure you buff the natural nails shine off when applying gels to the nails... When applying CND shellac the correct way no buffing is done to the natural nail. That's why I use it.

    Thinking of converting from Shellac to Gelish - questions

    If you change to gelish you will have to buff the natural nail down, which will cause the nail to become even more brittle, more so than it would do with shellac....?
