Second "How to Operate Legally" Module! 🇦🇺
I've finished the 2nd How to Operate Legally module for South Australia nail techs 🇦🇺 Anyone and everyone is welcome to check it out, I find it fun to learn as much as I can about how the industry works all around the world (hence me creating this community 😆) If you want to create a module for your country, let me know, and I can help you work on it if you'd like 😁 Have a epic week x

@Courtney George Woah the way you paint such detailed faces is amazing!!! 😻
Acetone vs Alcohol
This is another thing that’s been on my mind recently. When do you use alcohol versus acetone? I’ve noticed that I pretty much exclusively use alcohol unless I need to really clean something up that I messed up then I’ll use acetone as I noticed that it’s a little bit clearer afterwards. Is there a good rule of thumb to keep in mind with these?

@Nicky MacLean do you by chance know which surfaces/things are more apt to tarnish?

@Nicky MacLean Thanks so much Nicky!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I definitely learned the hard way with ABS because I used it once to clean the top of my lamp and it wiped away the brand logo 😂
Copyrighting photos of work
I’ve been seeing more and more people have a subtle “@[social media handle]” text in the photos of their work they post — I haven’t looked into IP laws for nail art or anything but curious about this. Do you do it? Do you know if it has to be by the nail art itself in the image (vs. in a corner somewhere)? Does it have to be on every image in a carousel of images?

@Nicky MacLean Thanks so much for the thorough explanation Nicky!! As always 🥰🥰 I’ll definitely start watermarking! I was thinking of it just cause I mostly do original work too
Creating a work space at home…
Okay, so, I have this front porch that I’m *really* wanting to create into a nail studio/workspace. HOWEVER, it’s 3 season and so in Chicago and it’s -30 F for weeks there may be problems. Or even before that. I’m also not sure if the light through the windows would cure the polish? I’m trying not to spend an arm and a leg but thoughts on weatherizing one’s workspace?? 🙏😅

@Ariana McCormack That’s a great idea for finding a local window tinter! And also a great callout to ensure rhe temperature out there remains consistent! I think for that I may have to get creative until we do a full insulation out there, BUT I feel I should get it looked at to see how expensive it’d all actually be
