No, no, no, no and a thousand times no!
I guess the people at Scratch may think they're being avant-garde by using that image on this months issue? That's the only explanation I can think of for it. For a long time we've wanted to change the general perception of nail technicians so that our professionalism will be recognized. How exactly does this image promote us as 'nail professionals'? It's promoting something for sure... but it certainly isn't nail professionalism!
I mean, puh-leeze! Who (apart from perhaps the subject himself) wants to see a picture of a semi-nude Leighton Denny with some bloke's hand groping his scanty lycra? Not me... and I bet my postie didn't either!
There was I, tired and bleary eyed, went out to collect my post. The magazine had landed face side down. There's a heavy wooden shelf above my letter box, which isn't normally a problem. It was this morning though. I bent down to pick up the magazine, and unfortunately turned it over and saw the front cover as I was standing up again. It made me jump. So much so that I cracked my head on the *!%&** shelf, and ended up on my knees clutching my poor bonce, waiting for the world to stop spinning.
Should I write to the criminal injuries compensation board? I mean... I should probably go and have a couple of stitches in it..... and then there's the fact that I'll never be able to look my postie in the eye again....
Seriously though, (incase anyone from Scratch visits this board) what I want to see is a professional-looking image of professionally done nails on the cover of a professional nail technicians magazine. I think that makes my professional point. Professionally. Thankyou and goodnight!
