Hairdressers and alike! Not only are we missing being creative but we are missing our social relationships with all our clients, yet, hairdressers always unite and stand by each other for important causes.

I want to share something uplifting for all us beauty industry people!

Something to give you such pride in our profession and the relationships we have with our clients.

It’s about two Italian BFF’s doing hair in the 1980’s and the lives they touch through their clients.

Guaranteed to make you laugh your ass off and shed a tear!

But most of all, what our profession truly does for humanity.

1930’s Type of Manicure, The Half-moon

Posted on by

 

In the 30’s women began to get professional manicures. One of the polish techniques that was popular at the time, made famous by Cutex, was the half-moon manicure which is popular today. The half-moon manicure was made popular by Hollywood. The half-moon and tip of the nail were left unpainted, showing the skill of a professional manicure. The idea stemmed from keeping enamel from the cuticle and the tip of the nail to avoid chipping.

How many times have we bought the perfect nail polish color only to find after a few uses the top has been glued shut from the caked on polish. In the past, I’ve tapped the top on the counter, soaked under hot water and even used pliers to get the polish to open.

Here’s a neat trick that really works. Put a little petroleum jelly around the grooves of the bottle and the cap. If you do this every so often you’ll never be frustrated again trying to get the cap off. It really works!
