Checking in....

It's been a while since I posted much content! I've been so busy with ups and downs on this path I've chosen for myself!!! I'm not even sure where to start... 

I finally left my day job and I am now officially a full time self employed nail technician and waxer. I'm loving it. Loving the flexibility, loving choosing my hours and how best to run my business. But it's not without it's challenges- I'm always trying to think of ways to advertise! I need a new website built to get more traffic coming as I'm not appearing as high on google as I would like. I need leaflets done. Ive got training to pay for!

High: getting lots of new happy customers
Low: taking along time on a set of Infills and pulling my back muscles waxing.

But I'm buying an efile next month and have had training in exactly how to use it!!!

also had a change of heart on which brand I'm going to back- I am still love Cnd shellac but as far as art and the technical side of nails I don't feel I can go much further with CND only, I started watching YouTube videos of crystal nails and I've decided to get involved with them. I've done a couple of training courses with them and absolutely loved it. (I do love a training course though) Check out their website www.crystalnails4u.co.uk

Their coloured gels and acrylics are amazing, they are a fairly new company in the uk and still fairly small and therefore lack the elitist and corporate feel of some of the bigger brands and instead present in a much more humble approachable way! Any question you need to ask their educators are there to answer...

Finally.....

I'm going to nail camp!!!! Yes I repeat I'm going to nail camp with crystal nails looool. Unless your a nail tech you won't know what I'm on about but trust me ok this us a good thing?!!  I actually can't believe it! It's 5 days away, in a manor house, learning nothing but nails nails nails!!  New techniques, art, shapes!! My idea of heaven. Happy to say some of my new nail tech friends are coming with me. I really feel it's a step worth taking in my new career. We are going to learn the most challenging designs and extreme shapes like stilettos! I hope to get more confident in nail art as that's one thing I want to work on.

So as you can see far things are good. the clients are coming and I'm the happiest I've been for a long time! I just hope it continues this way!!
