Feel the same about people doing their own nails as hair dressers do about people colouring their own hair?
Do nail techs ..?

Many technicians became technicians precisely because they started out doing their own nails! Maybe if honest, some of YoU did just that! I certainly started that way; discovered a talent for it and have been sharing that talent ever since.
Many will give nails a go and the majority will fail but some won't, and that is life. It doesn't bug me because I'm not going to change human nature nor get my knickers in a twist about it either.

I started that way! I'll be honest I looked at it and thought I've been to my nail tech for so long I've got a bit of an idea, I want a go!
Soon realised its blimmin' tricky isn't it?? I can't really be annoyed at others as that's what I did at first and genuinely didn't know any different. What does scare me is how much damage I could have done - and very lucky I didn't.
What I can't stand are folks who 'do nails' on other people (!) with no training, no clue, no insurance! Scary. But when friends try out minx or other wraps no it's not a concern. I don't have any friends that attempt acrylic or uv nails though :/

I don't have a problem with DIY-ers. I had a most excellent nail professional for 11 years who left my nails in perfect condition when I decided to embark on the DIY path. I, on the other hand, over filed my nails to the point that I have irreparable damage on several of my nails. That's the price I paid for being a DIY-er.
My problem with DIY-ers is if they are posers...posers being they are acting as if they are certified nail professionals.
That's dangerous.
