April has been an amazing busy month for Emma and I with the introduction of retail products and new treatments to our salon.
Emma has completed her training in the Gelish Hard Gel in both tip application and sculpturing techniques at the Wessex Nail Academy. We have now switched many of our ladies over to the Gelish Hard Gel system for those clients who need a little more than just a Gel Polish on their nails. This Hard Gel is more flexible, incredibly strong but much thinner and leaves a much smoother finish in comparison to using a soak off gel with a mesh reinforcement, which leaves the enhancement looking thick and bulky. The feedback from our clients has been very positive and they are all claiming this product feels light weight and extremely tough to wear especially as the gardening season has commenced for Spring!
The Nail Workshop Competition Winner
Emma ran a Facebook competition this month for a free Gel Polish at The Nail Workshop. It was lovely to meet our winner Karena and she was most excited about having her nails done with Emma. Karena chose Gel II Passion with a stunning dark pink glitter.

Emma and I are now both qualified in Lash Lifting. We had a fun day out on Wednesday to train in this wonderful treatment.


Lashlift treatments can be carried out on their own or combined with colour to maximise the dramatic effect.
Benefits
- Immediate results.
- Curl /Lift lasts for up to eight weeks – ideal for those going on holiday!
- Short, straight lashes appear longer and more flattering.
- Drooping eyes appear ‘lifted’.
- Ideal for those who find the daily use of make-up irritating to the eyes.
- For those who find the mechanical method of eyelash curling uncomfortable, time consuming and detrimental to the lashes.
Price List
Lash Lift with tint £40. Emma will be offering a 15% discount on a Wednesday!
A sensitivity test must be carried out by law 48-72 hours prior this treatment.


More photos to come once we have built up our image portfolio!
Why not have your brows reshaped whilst your lashes are being lifted?
Before and after brow tidy using the Ancient Art of Threading on Emma’s client this week. Threading is a safer and kinder alternative for facial hair removal especially for those with a sensitive skin, who have certain skin conditions, or are taking medicines that will conflict with waxing and sugaring. There are no chemicals or heat applied so Threading will not traumatize/peel the top layers of your skin.

Retail Products and The Revamped Salon.
The Nail Workshop is now stocking beauty products for retailing, this includes Dadi Oil, La Palm Spa Hand Lotion, Small pretty 100/180 grit files (handbag size), Tweezers, Mineral Brow Palettes with Wax, Brow Pencils, Ancient Mineral Bath Flakes (for those who like a relaxing soak for their tired muscles and in need of a nights sleep) and much more to come!
It was time for a revamp in the salon over Easter, it was starting to look dated/tired and in need of a refresh. We now have new very modern looking wall posters, business cards and leaflets all designed by Emma, a fresh lick of paint, shelving for our retail products, new swish chairs and towels……. It’s looking amazing!
Work in progress

All finished and what a difference.
