I know i dont think i am but last year a lass that i started the nail course for went to whitwood college she got accepted on the course but she couldnt get a placement in a salon has she was too old and she was only 21 i asked my hairdresser why this was and she said the salon would have to pay her the minimum wage for her age which obviously is a lot more than they would pay for a 16-17 year old :irked: so if she was considered too old i will be way over the hill lol:lol:
