HELLOOOO Salon Geeks

I am new to this forum. Thought I would check it out. I'm a beautician from near Birmingham - west midlands (UK) - started off as a set taught hobbyist and became a qualified professional

a little about me... I talk to much, I'm obsessed with lipstick - MAC and Tom Ford to be precise, I'm quite small, there is ALWAYS time for coffee or cake in my world, I am obsessed with photography (besides offering make-up, hair, nail treatments I'm also a photographer whey!) so i do a lot of editorial photoshoots and weddings here and there... I have the most randomest taste in music (everything and anything that sounds moving and sometimes odd) my current obsession is BANKS - her music is just awesome... i tend to make up words to exaggerate what i mean... i.e.: "Randomest" ???

ummmm I can't think of anything else to share at the mo but do come and say hi Lets partake in an ice-breaker... tell me 5 random things about yourselves! Look forward to your responses!!

Hi Biljana

Thanks for responding. phew! I thought the newbie was gonna be left out. Firstly... I love your business name! Clean cheeks! Is that a play on words ;) ha! I have never played golf but have always wanted to drive around in one of those gold carts! Looks fun!

HELLO? Canadian? I've got a friend that got wed and moved to Canada and said it's awesome! Best move of his life and such a friendly place. I will have to visit one day!

Busy is good, I get so bored having a day off. I feel like in wasting perfectly good productive hours lol. I'm just getting the hang of this forum thing. Thought it would be a fab way to branch out a little. x
 
Hi.

1. Don't mess with me.

2. I have a weird sense of humour and don't like people who have no sense of humour at all.

3. I am loyal to those who deserve it.

4. I have 2 daughters and no pets. Should be the other way around.

5. I have been a mobile nail tech for over 10 years.

Welcome aboard! I hope you're not easily offended because it will happen, without a doubt, without anyone meaning to. Other than that, this is a lovely place for a natter. :D

Cleen Cheeks can mean anything ;) as I am a well rounded esthetician, nail tech, wax tech, sugaring tech..etc.. so I clean up all kindsa Cheeks hehe
I ended up with Cleen spelling as there is already a diapering company that is Clean Cheeks lol
Works well for me as everyone love the name and is easily remembered.
I just started playing golf 4 yrs ago and I wish I did sooner! Golf carts are A Lot of fun, but I prefer to walk as it gives me 4.5 hrs of walking 18 holes. Great exercise.
Green all around and very serene, as long as you make that putt that is!
Canada is a land of dreams :) friendly people, multi cultural and great opportunities.
I work 8-9 hrs at my spa Tue-Sat... but since all the money goes back into the business and to pay off the loan that started it all it leaves me without a paycheque so I work additional 10-20 hours per week at my local drug store as a beauty advisor to get pocket money. I have a 10, 7 and a 3 year old so I have absolutely NO time for anything else.
Enjoy the freedom ;)
