Hope this link works! Basically its about gaining clients (bio sculpture)through bashing l&p..but it just shows she isnt very proficient with her application of l&p.

*sigh*, nothing to add......

 

[Bagpuss]

what a complete load of rubbish....she contradicts herself by saying acrylic is really hard and really bad then says bio sculpture s gel is brill and its as hard as acrylic....didnt she just say that was a bad thing !!

bio is the only gel thats not got acrylic in ... rubbish
gel is like gel that you put in your hair ... what a joke

i really do think thats the worst load of bull i have ever read....oh and i voted it unhelpful x

 

[IllumeGirl]

for me the final slap in the face was the comment about product being cheap..its like liquid gold..the amount of time plus the cost to me (us) in products and training is huge..what a silly twit she is.:irked:

OMG!!!
I get absolutely furious with people like that: don't know jacks**t, but still go around thinking they know just about everything and have come to save the world from ignorance! And then it's up to the rest of us in the business to try and re-educate the clients about what is true and what is not...

What a complete load of bollox!! she should be reported to ebay for that misleading guide.
Its people like her who give us real techs a bad name
I also voted unhelpful what a t..t!!

i could laugh..but instead i am going to scream:irked:

 

[louiser]

Thats awful, she also says that gel looks nore natural and is super shiney, I don't know about you but my natural nails are not super shiney! x x

 

[florence2004]

ahhh this just makes me so mad! I found a forum the other day where l&P nails were trashed - put a big post on that one, I guess all we can do is keep educating people as best we can!

 

[dee]

wel i hadnt had a laugh all day .. till i read this ! what with the suffocation of nails , we will all be up for mansluaghter wont we :lol:
and the product being thinner at the nail bed ?????????????????? does she mean by that that the product is thinner at the cuticle , i should hope it is ,
i would be really worried if i put products on a nail bed :lol:, nail plate yes , nail bed errrr nope :lol:

 

[busybee32]

Have reported both to ebay as the first one is misrepresenting and the second one well why do you think. she shouldn't be allowed to tell you how to do nails at home as people are going be going out thinking they are proficient in a specialised area and ruin their own as well as any other unsuspecting clients nails.
My god why isnt there any regulations about this sort of thing it makes me sooooooooo ANGRY .....
Rant over
At least for now anyway

I loved the comment about what it really cost us to do a set of nails......

hello? ....clients ( most of them ) all know it's not the cost of the products we charge for .........

it is the knowledge ,education, know how of products ,and results !......

since she is a hair stylist as well .. I wonder if she only charges her clients what a hair cut ( products included ) really cost her?

she is an idiot!
peeps like these are what gives us a bad name!

 

[quiksilver_206]

Oh my god! What a complete idiot! As I read this I just got angrier and angrier, by the end of it I thought it was funny cause it was soooooo unbelievable!

 

[littlegrohl]

Hehehehe!! Gut Laugh!!

Everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame, and i bet she felt really important about herself by writing a Review on EBAY!! I bet its even in her CV!!

Hehehehhahahahhehehe


Honestly.. if anyone takes that seriously.. ((I mean even a layman can spot a contardiction no?)) Then they deserve everything they get!! IMO~!!!:smack:

 

[1999judy]

:lol::lol::lol:my nails are suffocating:lol::lol::lol:
Gel..it's like hair gel:lol::lol::lol:

 

[littlegrohl]

haha dont laugh.. there will be hundreds of Ebayers using Hair Gel as an enhancement on her recommendation now!! Wonder how that would cure under the old UV!! :green:

 

[alpina]

I've been using brisa in my hair for years:green:

It's super shiny and flexible, with just enough hold.

 

[VHunter]

Isn't there a way to report her to ebay for providing wrongfull, misleading and fraudulent information?

I tried, but couldn't find a way to do so.

She's CLEARLY ignorant and uneducated.
