Young beautician of the year TV programme

[Curly Bamboo]

Did anyone watch it?

The waxing by some of the therapists made me cringe!

You shouldn't (whether it was a joke or not) call your client a drama queen for squealing alot from a back wax.

I watched it too. Although I don't do waxing, the chest wax on that really hairy bloke looked so painful. You know, the one with a full chest of thick dark hair who squealed a lot. Ouch!

I've just watched it, I thought it was fab! Going to watch the hair one now if I can find it

I watched it and enjoyed it. I think they all did well under pressure and although they did a few things made me cringe a bit, I imagine that some of it was nerves?

I did enjoy it however i felt that with the time constraints they were never gonna do the best they could do!! Surely its about quality rather than speed?!

yes she is there was a post on here a few weeks ago. Although (sorry i cant remember her proper name) she wasnt how i had pictured her to be and may i add thats not good or bad, I had just built an image in my head based on posts i had read etc. But may i add a very well done!

I thought both finalist did an excellent job in the 2 hour makeover.

I thought they both did a good job, I did however think the blonde 1 looked a little scruffy, i know this doesnt affect how treatments are performed, but isnt personal presentation key in our industry?

the dark haired 1 looked really glam, smart and professional, i loved her tunic! and she looked like she had really made an effort, blonde 1 had scruffy hair, no make-up,and a scruffy uniform( just my personal opinion) but then again, i did like her lashes better than the others.

and im sorry, i didnt catch the names,i didnt watch it intentley.

Yes me too, the whole effect was stunning with both makeovers, and the differences in approach between the 2 therapists was interesting.
Did anyone notice how the lady judge's eyebrows went up when Heather said she'd apply party lashes?

I think all 4 therapists did brilliantly, and are a credit to the industry. I hope this BBC show continues for a number of years and continues to showcase the serious talent, commitment and training of beauty therapists.

I didn't see it but reading this thread I thought it was funny and an attempt to make the treatment light hearted. At an intimate wax training, we had our trainer say "now we're going to flip your flaps out". Crude but it did lighten up the mood and make the models at ease!

I did think they probably would have all finished the waxing if they were given clippers rather than those tiny scissors to trim the hair!

Hey girls,

Its interesting reading all the comments. It was a good laugh, thanks for your comments ladies good and bad. It was very intense but all to make good tv.

LOL unfortunately girls i wasnt looking my finest, what with having a young baby, opening a business having very bad flu whilst filming... clearly a state! haha

We work in a very judgemental industry where clients tend to be intimidated by made up therapists, i prefer the natural approach. Fortunately i dont need to wear alot of make up.
