We’ve all heard the misleading claims that nail polish is harmful unless it’s “3-Free”. The facts are that this was deception from the very beginning.  All nail polish can be used safely, and that’s been true for more than eighty years. Nail polish formulas haven’t changed much since the 1930s. How did they so suddenly become […]

Some customers (and a few nail pros) are still concerned about UV exposure at the nail salon. Wearing SPF 15 sunscreen works, but it can also be messy, and potentially cause lifting. So, what to do? As I have said before, there is no need to be concerned about exposure to UV nail lamps. Not […]

Most manufacturers say their LED bulbs are good for 30,000 hours. If true, a nail lamp that was on constantly for 40 hours a week would last 14 years.  This is NOT a realistic claim considering how nail pros are using them. So, when should we replace our LED nail lamps? It is a major advantage of […]

I have recently written about ‘BIAB’ so nail pros have some understanding of what it actually is. Now I’m explaining a bit about the rubber base coat products that have become popular. Do you know what you use them for? Do you know what they are meant to do? How do you know if you […]

A large part of the nail sector is aware of the ‘allergy epidemic’ that we and our clients are suffering from. (Surprisingly, there are still many that are not aware of it). Acrylate-based nail coatings have been available and used since, at least, the late ’70s. There were, of course, incidences of allergies that will […]

Có những giáo viên giỏi. Có những giáo viên TUYỆT VỜI. Sau đó, có những 'giáo viên' làm việc vì tiền chứ không phải vì đam mê!! Bạn có muốn trở thành giáo viên không? Nhiều giáo viên chỉ là 'sinh ra đã vậy'! Nhiều người khác có thể học được kỹ năng (và tin tôi đi, kỹ năng giảng dạy là một thế giới hoàn toàn khác so với việc trở thành một […]

This is a question that often crops up: “Should I remove another nail pro’s work?” The answer is “of course you should!”. Whether you are a natural nail specialist or a ‘full service’ nail pro, you should have enough knowledge to remove any type of nail coating or enhancement. Firstly, this is a potential new […]

Are you Qualified? What a Massive Divide! It doesn’t matter what country you are in, we have a problem! Here in the UK, our problem is understanding the difference between a true ‘qualification’ and a training course that should be considered CPD (Continued Personal Development). Although being insured is not mandatory here in the UK, […]

When it comes to preparing nails before applying a coating, a very common debate is water vs waterless manicures. There is no shortage of opinions about this topic, but there is a shortage of facts and proper understanding. I believe that clients should wash their hands before every service. This exposes the nails to water […]
