I know what you mean. I have quite alot of hard skin on my feet I should be doing something about, but never get round to it.
In answer to your question, it's nice to have someone pamper you and not have to clean up the mess afterwards, however your nails are your adverts.
You cant claim there your work and people might wonder why you dont do it yourself.
Maybe do them yourself and every now and again treat yourself.
 
Do you know any geeks/techs round your area? Maybe you can exchange treatments? You do theirs, they do yours or whatever?

I know what you mean though. Its a pleasure to do other people's nails and an inconvenience to do your own.

Make that special effort.Think of something really nice and find time to do your own...:hug:
 
I have had my nails done by other techs quite a few times, i tend to go to techs who are you using the same system/products as me that way i can learn ( or learn not what to do lol) It can be a educating visit.

But No its not wrong at all honey, some peeps just cant do their own nails.
 
I understand what you are saying perfectly. I get a bit tired of doing my nails and sometimes there is just no time. But a client will always like to see your own worki in "living colour" as it were.
 
i do get fed up sometimes doing my own nails..for the simple reason...that sometimes i am to busy but...it is our best advertising feature and one which people see.....its a walking advert for our selves
but like everyone else it is nice every so often and treating yourself to a pamper every now and again...nothing wrong with that.
 
I have started doing my own nails with Brisa gel. It is so much easier than doing L&P on my own. :) And I dont need to fiddle with them all the time as they are still perfect after doing clients - they arent affected by the acetone or scrubfresh etc. I still file off the corners though. :irked:

My clients always seem to want what I am wearing, so I wouldnt really wear other nail techs work. JMHO

Cheers Julie

Lol its fine hun i took no offence, its the story of my life lol xx:hug:
 
I had my nails done by another tech as it would take me too long to do my own and I needed the time out for ME. Nothing wrong with that! We all need a little pamper time for ourselves.
 
I think it's fine to let someone else pamper you !
I am a hairdresser as well, and the only time i get pampered is when i get waxed lol,hardly pampering is it ?
The only problem with having someone else do your nails is that it's not a great idea as far as advertsing goes,is it ?
Hth you chatty geek lmao x x x x

Don't stop hun :hug: that's what this site is for x x x x
 
I think doing own nails is an excellent way of advertising your work but its nice to be pampered and let someone else do them.Trouble is I would now be very,very careful who I let touch my nails.I dont think I could keep my mouth shut if they did something I knew to be harmful to my own nails.I also think its a great way of picking up ideas when watching someone else do your nails,especially if that someone is a Master nail tech.
