I'm looking to rebrand myself as I don't have many repeat customers and want to expand to different treatments so my name as it stands only reflects nails!
Presently, I do natural nail manis/pedis with polish and am qualified to do warm waxing.
Looking in future to do Minx, Shellac, eyelash and eyebrow tinting, perming and extensions and intimate waxing.
I am mobile but do want in future to be able to rent so don't really want 'mobile' in my name.

So far, have come up with
Mariposa Lily Beauty
Majestic Mariposa

The other option is to have a name that includes both my daughters names either the letters or parts. Their names are Leia and Isabelle. Have tried anagramming them but getting nowhere!

Would love to hear some feedback xxx

The only one that stands out to me using your daughters names is "Le Belle" translated from french meaning " The Beautiful"

I risk seeming picky but its 'La Belle' in french, 'le' is masculin :)

Just a thought - have you considered other reasons rather than the business name as to why you not getting repeat bookings?

Rebranding is more than just changing a business name - its about looking at thw whole picture - perhaps you should do some kind of a mini analysis of your business? When you are going to the effort of changing name may as well do it proper? Just a thought!

Hi, I have been researching into the whole non repeating clients ( tis another thread on here!).
I have today made and sent out an anon questionnaire to clients from the past 3 months with various questions such as professionalism, presentation, time taken, price of treatments etc.
The rebranding was just another idea as my company name at the moment is 'Nails By Stacy' and wanted to include beauty treatments as well but didn't want 'Nails And Beauty By Stacy' if you catch my drift!

I thought Le was masculine too so checked it in google and it would not translate it with La .... Knew i failed french at school for a reason haha

Have been doing that as well! I'm really on the ball lol.
I haven't found any mobile nail techs that offer Shellac or Minx in my area only salons do think I am right to start training for both of them.
Other beauty treatment wise the only mobile beauty therapists seem to come from the next town over so think I need to start pushing myself out there better! X

I still like le belle...I've just typed it into freetranslation.com and it came up with 'the beautiful one'. I doubt many people would question whether it's grammatically correct..and the ones that do..well, I suppose its a conversation piece!x

If its going to reflect both the daughters names it has to stay as LeBelle.

We're in England not France so who cares lol
