Dear All
I have the nicest nightmare client possible and need HELP!!!!
Lovely lady came to me (as a reminder am very very new to this and learning very very fast - but not fast enough) - 14 days before birth of 2nd child - eldest 3, who wanted very very long extensions, on her already long nails.
Anyways persuaded her out of extended length any more, already one and a half times nail bed, but not even, and told her the most I would do would be to sculpt them evenly. :? Got her to sign disclaimer when she said that nail varnish peeled off her within 1 hour of putting on, even 4 coats - top/2 x polish/base! :!: :?:
On client form got the disclaimer for pregnancy, chance of nails coming off and length being longer than I would recommend - she just wanted really cool nails for the last few days of pregnancy and first few days after. Did my best remembering Geegs brilliant advice re lifting, and they looked cool - but 2 days later, 3 had lifted entirely from nail bed. Whites on firmly and will not budge.
Re did the 3, in a spare hour - Brilliant prep, took off shine AGAIN, scrub fresh, followed by nail fresh, 1 at a time - that was all the time she and I had. She came in again today, and the 3 are on perfectly, but half the others are off (PS didnt charge for this as felt guilty )
She admits herself that her face and body have had in her words "a grease attack - she never has spots, but has now" and realises that nothing may work, but wants me to try and repair, as per other 3.
Does anyone have any other ideas :?: :!: Do I charge for this :!: :?: :!: will be spending hours trying to get them to bond, maybe against ALL odds?
All suggestions VERY GRATEFULLY RECEIVED!!
Love to all.
