You want good quality and longevity of finished enhancements, but you don't want to pay to get good products!?
To me that doesn't make sense.

When you work out the price per set of the high end brands it doesn't work out that much different to the price of a cheap product range.
The big difference with buying high end is that you will get longevity, non yellowing, clients will love their finished nails and rebook with you (those clients who are serious about their enhancements).

I know which I'd choose

i didnt say that i didnt want to pay for good products! i asked which are the best value for money, so that the end of the day i would be in profit after buying the products ect! that makes sense to me.

I use NSI and I find it much cheaper than other lines..I also just started using Nailites Omega acrylic and I am in love..It lays like a dream so the filing is minimal and it's for lift prone clients..which is why I use it on everyone. The low cost is the major plus because you get great quality lost cost products and high quality performance..Just a lil info for you..HTH..

People using the most expensive product still make a good profit lol. If they didnt then no one would use them. I went through this when I went selfemployed and I thaught about cutting costs and I am so glad that I didnt. I stuck with CND and I love it. NSI is a nice product, I use their coloures all the time. If you are confident in NSI I would stick with it, as said above it is actualy one on the cheapest well known brands. I know what its like as I said above but stick with high end products all the way. Clients are clued up on what is good and what is not too. Hope this helps. You will get on going education and customer service out of a good brand. Hope this helps you and good luck xoxoxoxoxoxox

I have always made a very good living using only the highest quality products and doing ONLY nails ... I use CND of course and clients have been coming to me or my technicians for more than 20 years (allot of them the original clients still to this day) ... THAT says allot about the quality of the service and the quality of the products ... you can't gain that kind of loyalty without BOTH.
