First off, appologies!!!
I usually find it quite tiresome when peeps start whinge threads about our industry mags as I feel they need our support in order for them to flourish and us to grow... but today I find I really cant stop myself from whingeing about Prof Beauty!
To start with, personally I quite like the format of the mag, it feels professional and a lot more slik.
There looks to be some interesting features for therapists, the mag has 136 pages.... but jeez just where are the nails!
The only mention of the Prof Beauty Birmingham that Ive found was one page of pics ... of little groups of people at the show reading Prof Beauty!
There's an OPI double-page pedi step-by-step and a page where 2 industry professionals give a for and against opinion on whether NSS should be 'banned'!
Can anyone else find any other features? am I just missing them as I thumb through the all the beauty/Spa stuff?
I want to give the magazine a chance but cant help feeling that the nails industry appears to be even more under-represented this month than it was last. I also cant help coming to the conclusion that maybe the reason they havent given nails a section of its own is because a couple of pages put back to back would emphasise just how little we're catered for now!
So, is this going to be it for us now I wonder?
To come from our own magazine to a just couple of pages, makes me feel very irrelevent as a nails only subscriber.
If any of you guys feel the same, or have points to make, maybe it might be worth writing them down, Ill gladly notify the editor of the thread, or perhaps get in touch with Chocolate who I know was going to put our opinions forward from last month.
Anyway, sorry for the rant... I just had to let it out as Im just so disappointed!
