Heyaa,
Just when I was about to make just a yap post, the doorbell rang.
The rest of my AliEx order arrived.
There is a mix of nail stuff and personal stuff.
For example this clear mat for preventing everything to keep slipping.
I should have checked the measurements though...it is smaller than I thought.
Well, I let it go flat right now and then we will see if it works.
It came with these stickers and for now I will just leave them I guess.
I can still use them (I am just not sure how and that's why I leave them).
Also this golden plate. Now that I think of it, it sounds ridiculous but I felt like it helps me having my tools not just all over the desk.
And as you can see, ALLLL OF THE BITS xD
They are actually too many and how come I don't have any taper barells? was I drunk ordering?
And the magnets...yes to cut the size equally.
I needed a new UV/LED lamp to cure my nails without having to hold something.
I am excited to try it out.
My new acrylic brushes..these are so much bigger! and soft, curious how much liquid they hold.
The dispenser though doesn't work...it is really bad.
And my lash stuff:
it looks actually more than it is.
Some new cleaning brushes (my old ones fall apart).
And well...you can see.
I want to use the stone in the middle to put glue on, since the rings I have are not handy for DIY-applications unfortunately.
The stickers below are to glue on top and then take off afterwards for easy cleaning.
The fan will help fasten the drying time but I felt like it can also work for hot days - so win/win.
This time I picked a different lash store and when I tell you, these are so soft.
There are so much better than all the other stiff ones I have gotten so far.
So it does matter which ones you order from AliEx.
I am actually really really excited to do my first set!
And yes some....wrong purchase?
I wanna try sewing my hair when I get to wear my wig...someday.
But this "yarn" turned out to be a...net or something?
And it smells...honestly Idk what this is.
I will probably find out and fall into another rabbit hole.
And now the yapping part.
I ordered some more polishes and I felt like I am almost ready to start and wanted to look unto insurances. I personally don't feel safe without.
Some women are crazy and it's not like you are handling harmless stuff, so I rather be on the safe side than getting big bills I can't pay.
Guess what, I need licenses to apply for insurances.
I don't need a license to do the business, but for insurance it is needed?
Well some courses are on the cheaper side and I guess it is not a bad thing to get schooled...makes it more professional...also it looks good framed on the wall ngl.
However when I was getting my lashes done by my SiL (still didn't tell her I will be doing my own now) she asked me about my business, because my mum told her...although I asked her not to tell anyone but I kinda knew that wouldn't work out.
I yapped about getting the stuff and so on and then she was like I was doing too much.
"You think the asian nail studios care about stuff like that?" and I am gonna be honest,
it feels kinda insulting.
Is it really that bad, to be on the safe side in this?
Like, I wanna do this great and want to be proud of this and if that means having proper stuff and getting all done first, then that's what it will be?
And honestly, who cares what the asians do? I have been there and the service was terrible.
I don't wanna be like them anyway?
At first it felt like I was going too slow and now it feels like everything is coming together now.
And still, I could have started earlier...Also wasn't the original plan to sell press-ons??
this plan excites me way more though so idk.
Maybe it's just part of the first doubts you get when starting such a thing but idk..
what do you guys think?
xoxo rinmero
