Branding

2011-11-08T23:37:00.000-08:00

Brand refer to a name, logo, slogan, and/or design scheme associated with a product or service.

Gelish by Hand & Nail Harmony seriously did a good job in naming their product.
I dont think they are the first gel polish. I yet to do a research on this.
I shall do it and update here.

Now everyone is saying, "I want to do Gelish manicure"
What happen to other brands like Orly Gel FX, Nfu Oh Gelist, CND Shellac etc.
No one say they want "Gel FX manicure, Gelist manicure, Shellac manicure"

Just like Pampers, it is actually a brand of a diaper.
How often will hear ppl call it a diaper? Most people will call it "Pampers"

Agree with me? LOL....

******************************************

There are many other gel polish in the market now.
At Blissful Nails, you will not only see Gelish, there will other brands as well.
So do take note and dont be surprise as they are all gel polish.

Review on Gelish: Watery, hard to seal the tips. Certain color will fade after awhile. But the rest are perfectly ok and can last up to 21 days.

Avoid the following Gelish colors:
01323, Sleek White
01335, Princess Tiara (will turn into grey color)
01408, Pink Smootie (will turn into beige color)
01410, Its a Lily
01421, Snow Buddy

New Website and New Logo

2011-09-21T03:00:00.000-07:00

Yeah. New Logo created.
Now I can add this new logo onto all my photos.

Normally customer will copy other mancurist work into their phone and show me.
They will request for the same design.
So far my customer will show me the full picture that was posted on the mancurist's website.
Recently, some customer will photoshop the pic and edit/chop the logo away.
To prevent such thing happening on my photo. I will have to place my logo right in the center. Which mean you might not be able to see the details of the design.
At my home saloon will get to see them without the logo.
I personally feel that if you like that manicurist work, you should credit to them.
By edit/chop their logo away you are just killing their effort and hardwork.

Finally change to blogger. www.webs.com is driving my crazy. Take so long to edit a post and also take so long to publish the post. Wasted so much time.
Hope you will like this new layout.

Rock Stars Toes

2011-09-21T02:00:00.000-07:00

Rock Stars Toes are very popular in UK.

What is Rock Stars Toes?
Basically is to sprinkle a thin layer of fine glitter powder onto your gel pedicure.
It will create a super bling bling effect.

This is how it look like.

You can also use it on tips only.

Price War!!

2011-09-21T01:00:00.000-07:00

Recently, some of my customer are telling me a nail saloon at Bencoolen the price for gelish is very low.

I also went to google some home based nail saloon, the price for gelish is also very low. That result a price war among the home based nail saloon and retail nail saloon.
I had been asking myself should I reduce the price?
My answer is not for now.
Reason? Im still waiting different brands of gel polish to launch.
Have to consider the cost price of the different brand then can finalise the price for gel polish manicure.
Currently I named gel polish manicure as Gelish Manicure because I only have Gelish Gel Polish.
If I bringing in more different brand of Gel Polish I will revise the price and name of the service.

Gelish is just a name for Gel Polish by hand & nail Harmony

Photoshoot Nails Enquiry

2010-12-29T01:00:00.000-08:00

Some customer are asking me what are my charges for bridal nails for Photoshoot.
I always recommend french nails will do. If really want some nail arts, i will keep saying cannot see de.
Aiyo at times i really feel like why got $ dont want to earn. LOL
But I have to tell the truth ma.

I ask my lovely cousin permission to post her photoshoot photos.
As her nails for the photoshoot was done by me.
Consider simple and not too loud.
Those picture im posting really explain why dont need too fanciful nail arts.

This picture show what i did for her nail on her photoshoot. Nice?

Extension nails with 02 types of glitters. Added 02 big ribbons on it, blings blings and pearls.

These are her photoshoot pictures. She self edit the pictures.
Picture 1. Can see her nails design? Cannot... Sad.

Picture 2. Suppose to see the nails clearer as it is a close up picture.
Upper body close up pictures have higher chances to see the nails design.
So imagine yourself holding to the flowers, likely to see the nails design.

Picture 3. A full body pose, still cannot see the nail design. Only can see the 02 big ribbons.
If you want your photoshoot picture to show your nails design it is really not so possible but unless you want to do super loud design.

Stress!

2008-11-18T01:00:00.000-08:00

Stress! What am I stress about??

I think my stress "Zhi Zhao".. Why do I say that? Every morning, I will look at my handphone see if there is any sms, check if it rings?? Siao right? No choice leh, if got sms, got call means got chance is from customer. When my handphone dont rings, I will worry that is my handphone spoilt liao ma??? SIAO SIAO SIAO.

If everyday like that I will go crazy. hahahaha. So all this is "Zhi Zhao" stress.

Oh ya, I must announce that I had completed my nail course long time ago. Just that Im still going back for my exams. Every 2 months then got a date for exam. So it look like Im still studying nail course. But I completed the course le.

What's Up??

2008-11-05T01:00:00.000-08:00

What had happened to me for the past 2 months??

1. Blissful Nails officially operate full time in August.
2. I passed my Certificate in Gel Extension Techniques.
3. Busy cracking my head on how to manage my home based salon.

It was not easy to decide to turn full time freelance manicurist.
I took me 3 months to decide. All should know that is not easy to give up a fixed reasonable salary. Especially 1 month after I turn full time, recession is going to hit us soon.

Maybe some of my customer had already know why I decided to turn to a full time manicurist. Sorry ya, make you to listen to all my story. Peisei ya Peisei.

Yup, I passed my Certificate in Gel Extension Techniques. Not easy this time. Not much confident. Im lucky. Just pure luck that I manage to make it. I guess the basic techniques help me thru. I worried like hell before the result is out. But that make me understand that practice makes perfect.. Im not born to be perfect.

Im soon be lack of ideas liao. I need brain storming. MORE IDEAS.

Any good idea to let the whole punggol resident know that there is home base salon???
Beside giving out flyers???
Or anyone knows where can find super cheap printers??? Inorder to give out flyers to the whole punggol, will need up to 20k pcs of flyers. So i need reak cheap printers.

I tried pasting on bus stops, end up the next day, the cleaner took them out. HAIZ.

Anyway, I would like to thank all that had help me in gving me ideas. I really appreciate them alot.

Oh ya, I decided to remove the price list for Man's Manicure and Pedicure.
I totally scared by the call I received it today while serving 1 lovely customer.
He is the 2nd cheeky guy I came across that want to look for "extra" services.

Heres the conversation: (Roughly remember bit by bits. But more than enough to let everyone that know me to be frightened and will ask me to delete all the price list for Man's Manicure and Pedicure)
Private number: Hello, Eva?
Me: Ya.
Private number: You do pedicure?
Me: Correct. Sorry may I know you are a guy or a gal? (Sound like a guy but too soft to 100% confirm is a guy, but Im 80% sure is a guy.)
Private number: Do you do massage? (Didnt ans my question, Guy or gal.)
Me: Oh yes, a gentle massage... Sorry may I know you are a guy or a gal?
Private number: Oh so you can do a body massage if I want? (Still didnt ans my question, Guy or gal.)
Me: NO NO... If you do pedicure than I will do a gentle massage on your foot. Sorry may I know you are a guy or a gal? Cause you sound like a guy to me. Sorry, I have a customer with me now. (I must be dumb to still talk to him at this point of time, should have end up the call. But I want to maintain good customer service, not to hang up call just like that. But I did drop hint saying IM NOT FREE.)
Private number: Oh. Got customer huh... Your voice sound very sweet and cute leh...
Me: Oh so sorry, I really got a customer with me now. I really cant talk to you anymore. (My goodness.. He is another cheeky guy.)
Cheeky guy: Oh. okok.
Me: okok BYE. (Didnt wait for him to finish I quickly hang up....)

YES!! I made it!!

2008-08-11T01:00:00.000-07:00

Thank you... MUACKS...

When my hubby saw my result, his reaction was "Why assignment II marks so low?"
Sound like my dad...
Thats show that he actually think that I can do better.
Well, he is true la. My marks was slightly pull down by Assignment II.

Must not be too excited or feel proud of it.
I always have this thinking "No matter where you graduated from, in this line, customer service and skill are still the most important thing."

I dont wish to be the best, must I will try my best to provide you the best.

More exams coming. Stress....

Frustrated

2008-06-09T01:00:00.000-07:00

Frustrated.

Never thought that I will rant in my blog.
But I really cannot stand it.

Cannot stand why got such people in this world.
Why these people can tell lies, 睁眼说瞎话? Do they think they are blind/idiot?

Why these people so money minded?

That is why Singapore customer service need to improve.

Why these people copy ideas openly without giving credits?

Very very unhappy................................................................................

Finally Is OVER!!!

2008-05-04T01:00:00.000-07:00

Finally is over!

Professional Manicurist Certificate Exam is finally over!
Result will be out in 2 weeks time.
I wont say I did badly but at least I tried my very very best.
Hands shakes very badly when only left with 10 mins...

Suddenly I felt so lost, feeling super lost.
Lots of worries. "Can I make it?" "What if I fail?"
Totally no confident. Confident eaten up by shark liao le la.

Where have I been??

2008-04-11T01:00:00.000-07:00

Wow it has been quite a long time I didnt update my blog.
What have i been doing for the past few weeks?

I was sick! Hubby was sick too.
He was sick during our holiday trip.

Didnt really get to enjoy much, while he was resting in the hotel room, im shopping outside at the same time im worried about him. How to enjoy myself?

After the trip, realised exam is coming. Need to do assignments, need to go back to school for self study. Busy busy busy. Stress stress stress.

Im planing to set up a sales section for nail products as well as DIY accessories.

Im also doing some custom design on gadgets. Adding stones to my MP3 and mirror.
Will take picture and post it up soon.

No more Bubble Foot Bath??

2008-02-22T01:00:00.000-08:00

For some of you, who had tried my service might be wondering why I no longer use bubble foot bath?

Well, the main reason is that I realise alot of girls are suffering for fungus nails.
So I decided to use Deep Sea Salt Soak instead of bubble foot bath.
At other salon you may need to pay extra for Deep Sea Salt Soak. Over @ my home salon, you dont need.

The Deep Sea Salt I used contain Tea Tree Oil, well-known for its anti-microbial and anti-bacterial properites. As an anti-fungal, it is most suitable when used for fungus-infected nails.

Additional is that I have 3 type of foot scrub for you to choose from.
Strawberry, Lavender and Gui Hua.

2008-02-10T01:00:00.000-08:00

Finally, the most busy period on Feburary is over.
Would like to thank you for your patience.
Hope you had enjoy the services with me.

Yes, I "renovated" my nail salon to that it can allow 2 and more customers to sit in.
Hope you will like it.

I am very sorry that if I had to "reject" your appt.
Cause I seriously cant take in anymore appt.

Oh ya, I would preferred that if you require any nail arts, do inform me when you make an appointment with me.
So that I can cater more time for you.

Faints big time.

The last round I use the bubble foot bath, one side is NOT Working!
NO bubble at one side. Only can massage.

I was wondering why? Used less than 5 times. How come is spoilt?

Then today I tried 'repair' it myself. HAHAHA. To my surprise, it works again. So happy. No need to send for repair.

So before any client come, I need to test it out the night before.

Updates!

2008-01-04T01:00:00.000-08:00

Yoyo! Is 2008 le.

What have you done for past 1 year?
Well for me there were some important things that had happened in the past 1 year..

Beginning of the year 2007, happy to see that my loving sister got herself a boyfriend... Someone that I know will take care for her for the rest of her life...
And it did bring the 2 of us a little bit closer.
Spent some nights with her in baking cookies for her first VDay, baking cupcakes for her love one.
I can't ask for much, but Im very happy with it.
I hope that we the 3 sisters will stay closer as before, to catch back what we missed.

Middle of the year 2007, I made a huge decision, to take up the Diploma in Professional Nail Technology.

End of the year 2007, my wedding dinner was held @ Singapore Marriot Hotel.

I felt that I do had a wonderful year in 2007. I wish that 2008 will be as good as 2007 or I want Better!!

Had been working very hard on my nail arts. Will do post them up soon!

To All, May you have a good year ahead!
With Love, Eva

Acrylic Nails

2007-12-09T01:00:00.000-08:00

Acrylics Nails, my favourite.
Love to see my nails with acrylics.

Yesterday had a "Thank you Party" for those helpers that had offer their help in my wedding. Without them my wedding wont be soon smooth.

Everlyn was very kind and allow me to play with her nails with acrylics.
She was the 2nd model to my acrylics.
Haha... As usual Carol was the first.
But Im so sorry that I failed. I didnt manage to get it done properly. Lucky she wasnt mad with me after trimming her nails so short.

I was surprise that there are some of my friends are not sure what are acrylic nails. It was really an eye opening for them too...

We do had fun in the room while some sit there watch and chit chat about their experience with manicure and pedicure.

There was even a queue waiting to try the "free service".

Bridal Nails

2007-12-02T01:00:00.000-08:00

Some of you might be wondering, how does my nails look like in my wedding day.

Well, nothing special as Im too busy with the wedding and other preparation hence I dont have much time to doll up my own nails.
All I did was a French Sculpture Acrylic nails, add on Rhinestones on it.
I also did my family members (Mum and 2 younger sister) nails as well.

My nails:

2 Younger Sisters nails:

Extension!

2007-11-30T01:00:00.000-08:00

Finally my wedding dinner is over! Got more time for nails.

Im now looking for models for extension, I need more practice before I provide this service.

Some of my friends are not sure what is extension.
I shall provide some information on it.

What are Acrylic Nails?
Acrylic nails are a two part system made of a liquid and a powder (a monomer and polymer). When mixed together, they form a thick consistency that can be used to apply tips and colors to natural nails.

How to Care for Acrylic Nails?
Properly caring for artificial nails can make them look better and last longer. With proper care, they will have to be replaced or repaired less frequently, saving time and money. Tips to keep nails looking their best include:

Oil nails once a day.
Keep pressure off nails.
File any ?lifted? areas (areas that are no longer flush with natural nail). Be careful not to over-file.
Do not glue any lifted areas, as it can introduce bacteria and fungus, since most glues are not moisture-resistant.
Do not share files or other nail tools with another person.
Keep nail tools sanitized.
Wear gloves when performing household chores, like working with cleaning chemicals. They can stain or discolor nails, and make the product weaker.
To change nail polish, use regular polish remover. After polish has been removed, wash hands and scrub surface of the nail. Apply cuticle oil to fingers, and buff the nail. Then apply base coat, color coats, and top coat, allowing dry-time in between.

Removal of Acrylic Nails?
To remove acrylic nails, do not try to snap or break off artificial nails. This can seriously damage the natural nail underneath. Either visit your salon or use a nail soak for removal.

Most nail soaks consist of straight acetone. To protect fingers and cuticles, coat them in Vaseline or other protective lotion. Then soak fingers in a small bowl. After about a half an hour, they should come off fairly cleanly.

OPI Swatches

2007-11-18T01:00:00.000-08:00

Finally finish posting most of the OPI swatch.
They are the list of OPI that Blissful Nails have.

Currently I post them up by Collection order.

Busy Busy Busy Bees

2007-11-10T01:00:00.000-08:00

Busy busy very busy.

Never had been so busy before. Even days that dont have classes I also need to OT. Additional to it, still need to prepare my up coming wedding.
I even turn down some customers. Im so sorry!

Really cannot breathe well this week. More to come as I will be going on leave soon and Im sure more work need to be clear before I go on leave.

Finally got time to pamper myself. Had change my facial appointment for numberous times. Suppose to go to Kose for facial tommorow, but I totally forgotten about my Free Trial facial with DRX today. So I decided to give DRX a try as I used to be a patient with DRX Clinic.
Overall review:- I prefer DRX facial. It is really very refreshing after the facial...

Went to Arab Street to get some rhinestones. Yeah, so happy to add new colors to my collections.

And I did a full set nail art with those "new toys".

I shall show what I had done during class.
Nothing special and not up "standard" yet. Should be able to better.

Argh, I haven do any free hand nail arts for my assignments.
Planing to do some next week. Hope I can complete this "Task".

Hens Night

2007-11-03T01:00:00.000-07:00

Yes, today is my Hen's Night.
Had a dinner with my jiemeis. Had great fun with them. Chat till 11pm.

Moody for the past few days.
Thought of doll up my nails may brighten my days ahead but I too moody that I only did a simple nail art.
After doing it, it really cheer me up...

Will be practicing more free hand nail arts soon. Cause it is part of my assignment. More free hand nail arts picture will be coming soon.

Pedicure Mock Exam!

2007-10-31T01:00:00.000-07:00

For the past 2 days had been very very stress. Need to work but my brain are all about the upcoming mock exam. Totally not much confident to complete the whole process.

Finally, today is the day! Pedicure Mock Exam!
I keep telling myself, just try your best. Dont panic.
Well, I did do some steps wrongly. Totally felt so disappointed and thinking I might fail. Until the moment when teacher announced that all PASSED!

Phew!! I made it. I PASSED!

But I need to work harder, extra harder, 100000000 times harder.
I must be able to remember all the steps by hard and without any missing steps.

Next thing to worry is the assignments and manicure Exam!!

New Decor for My Home Nail Salon

2007-10-26T01:00:00.000-07:00

Bought new stuff to decor my nail salon.
Bought a Tissue Cover and a chair cushion.
Found a piggy chair cushion. Next year shall look for a minnie mouse cushion.

Cutey!

My Home Nail Salon

2007-10-20T01:50:00.000-07:00

Yeah, I finally set up my Home Nail Salon.
At least I done the basic set up.

I searched high and low for one suitable table lamp. Finally I found one.
The table lamp was bought from Carol. She had one but didnt make full use of it. Hence I bought it over.

New OPI Lacquer

2007-10-09T01:00:00.000-07:00

Bought about 49 bottles of OPI Lacquer for my home nail salon.
Now I have about 59 bottles of OPI Lacquer.

Bought a new stand to put the OPI Lacquer.
I put it on top of the dress table

Set up a Home Nail Salon?

2007-10-01T01:53:00.000-07:00

After some thinking, I decided to set up my own home base nail salon.
Now is that I need to buy more OPI Lacquer.

First Try on Assignment - Painting

2007-09-30T01:00:00.000-07:00

So angry with myself.
I just cant paint those fake nails properly. WHY WHY WHY?
Either I accidently touch them n end up got prints on it or drop them on the table.

Need to file new fake nails and paint it.
I cant use polish remover to remove on fake nails. Once contact with polish remover, fake nails will "melt" and eventually will break into half.
I think I should make it a habit, 1 day paint 2 fake nails only, cause I only got 2 fake fingers.
Let them have ample time to dry up. Else I sure will leave prints on it when I try to remove it so as to paint another one.

End up, I paint my own nails. Nice?
Find that red is too boring hence I added some silver lines.
