Cat Eye
Admittedly, a polish that just confuses the heck out of me 🀣 I'm wondering if there is a way to have a couple of cat eyes that can be versatile? When placing a different colour under it will change its overall colour? (Hopefully that makes sense?) Like can I get silver and put blue under it, for it to mirror a blue cat eye, and then do the same with a different colour? Or am I just being silly? Haha

@Gracie De Ridder ok yes that does. Which I have played around with jellys on top of cat eyes so I guess im on the right path haha
So what does β€œfully booked” mean?
This is a chat i think needs to be in the open! Fully booked can depend on alot! So often we see techs posting β€œfully booked” all the time and if your not fully booked it can be hard to see and compare yourself, why are they booked out and your struggling to fill your appointments, but reality is they could be fully booked only having room for a few clients a week around other work or family commitments, or .. they could be blocking off spaces in their booking system to condense appointments with less gaps and opening spaces where needed to create β€œurgency” for clients to book and not miss out! Social media really shows us just a snippet of what people want us to see and not the reality! So lets open up this chat ! How many clients on average do you see per week and how many does it take to be fully booked? ill post mine in the comments!

Depth vs. Bulk in Nail Art πŸͺ₯
🎨 Layering art gels can create depth and dimension, but too many layers can bulk up the nail. πŸ‘‰ How do you balance detail with keeping nails thin?

Toxic fumes
Hey y’all! I’m just wondering what everyone uses with their space to air out fumes, so with my nail room I do have a massive open window but I still find that the ventilation isn’t the greatest. There is a warehouse that’s near me that is doing a sale and they mentioned air purifiers is this something that some of you lovely ladies use? Do you have any other suggestions? Let me know!πŸ₯°

Shortening Nails
I'm curious to know how everyone shortens long nails, as I've seen a few different ways. I find when I use the efile bit to shorten my own nails it can skip and be painful, I've also read that this can ruin your efile bits quicker.
