Minx ... nails too short to file

[Emma L]

Hello,
Today I did a supervisor from New look for free to promote my services and she brought her friend who also worked at the same shop, who was a paying customer. The non paying client's toes were minxed with no problems the paying client has very little nails no real free edge and I couldnt file the minx properly in the end I had to cut the free edge with scissors. My file is getting really blunt only after 6 applications and I clean it with liquid soap and a nail brush untill all the glue comes off after every client. Im really dispondant now and feel I could off lost a client for good.
I did cuticle work used Cnd cuticle remover and then scrub freshed waited to dry and then applied.
So please can any one help with any ideas.
Thanks
Emma :cry:

Hi Emma,

If you have really scrubbed your file then there shouldn't be a problem.

I have bought another file for just incase but haven't had to use it yet. When I clean my file I don't use liquid soap I use washing up liquid, probably shouldn't but it works for me, try it and see if it make a difference.

Hi,
I'll give that a go but do you have any problems with any clients that have no free edge?

I dont think theres much you can do about it...if the nails arent in a great condition then I would just explain that they probably would be better having a couple of manicures first to try grow the nails out abit or suggest an NNO x
