Judge Gigi-Honorary Geek
A very good friend of mine, and a gifted nail geek here on the site, said something to me the other day which had me in complete agreement ...
She pointed out that going by the nature of so many recent questions here on SG there seem to be a huge amount of 'qualified' manicurists who seem to not know even the most basic information about nail products or application techniques. A vast majority of the questions re 'problems' could be solved without asking questions by simply getting more and better basic training.
My personal thoughts are that quick manicure courses and UV colour coatings have galvanised many into entering the nail business but they really lack all the basic skills for lasting service and to solve problems because they know little about the products they are using.
Make it a goal in 2013 to 'up your basic skills and knowledge base' by booking onto at least 2 classes that will fill in your gaps. I am doing a large update training in early February ... What about you? What gaps do you need to fill?
