Please please help me - and quick!!!
I have been working on clients at last, and they have been pleased with the results and the price - I refuse to charge salon prices till I am salon standard.
The thing is infills/backfills fill me with dread - I tried doing my own thumb the other night and what a mess - filed it flush, applied product after first prepping, then priming and then using Line-Out. The pink of the nail was two tone where the old and new met - the line was horrible and very visible. On myself this is acceptable - I can cover up with polish - but its not good enough when it comes to clients. Any expert advice?
Also 'Greenies' - I discovered that a couple of my nails are suffering - so I am now having to wear polish to disguise this. Why does it happen, what am I doing wrong, how would you explain to a client about it if it happened to them - and lastly what can I do about it? Could you still apply an extention - or do the nails have to be left bare?
I am feling disillusioned at the moment due to not feeling that I know enough on this side of things - the original nails - no probs, I'm happy with how I;m progressing - but the rest of it and the worry of how to deal with clients if they ever did come in complaining about greenies or whatever - well, how do you get over that one!?
Sorry - this is so garbled, got a client in a while and am rushing to get ready for her.
Thanks in advance
Love
