@Jess McCallum I'm glad you like it! 🥳. Yeah, all you need is a little bit of texture of for the nails to be able to adhere to the natural nail 🙏
Efile cuticle work.
Hi everyone!!!!! Ah soo amazing to be in a community where I can ask all the questions! I’m wanting to do a course on cuticle work, I have done a basic efile course but would love to do a more detailed course like a Russian manicure course or something similar. I have good retention between 3-6 weeks. But do have cuticle lifting a lot of the time. And recommendations would be amazing! I’m located in Christchurch.

@Lena Te whata Yes please! That will be super helpful 😁🙏 Have you changed any products recently? Or do you know if there have been any formula changes to the products you are using?

@Lena Te whata Hmmm, I don't think it would be the refill bottle 🤔. Okay, while we wait for the clients to come back in, can you please walk me through your current prep process 🙏. I also don't think it would be because the sanding bands aren't coarse enough. In theory, the nail plate only needs a little bit of texture to create that grip we're looking for. I know some nail techs even only use a buffer to do that. (I also use sanding bands personally 🫶)
Should we start a monthly nail art challenge?
I'm thinking of giving us something fun to do as a community, and the first obvious thing that popped into mind was a monthly nail art challenge. I understand we're all busy with a million things going on, so weekly probably wouldn't be best. But what if once a month I upload a non-nail-related picture, and we all spend the month interpreting it how we want? It can be on a press-on, a swatch stick, or a real-life client. Totally up to you! I just think it's a nice way to also get our creative juices flowing, and we can share everyone's nails on our Instagram to also try and up your engagement as well. So... should we start a monthly nail art challenge?

Too many products ugh!
Do other people have too many products they just have no clue what to design? I'm having one of those days. I also got ANOTHER delivery today of more products. I NEED HELP!!! 😭😭😭😭

Hahaha, one of my favourite problems to have 😂 I understand what you're saying though - I've been in a creative block for about 2 years now 🥲. I sit down at my desk and spend half an hour trying to figure out what to do, and end up doing nothing instead haha. I like to try to find inspiration in things that aren't nails to get my creative juices flowing. So I'll go on Pinterest and type in things like "texture", and just see what comes up. Other things you can try searching are: Wallpaper Patterns Interior Design
