I qualified in manicures, pedicures and acrylic nails in 2006 but still really consider myself a newbie as i only ever did friends every now and then and myself after college up until now.
I have recently moved area and been offered the chance to 'rent a desk'.
I went to see the salon owner (who is very lovely) and she seems willing to help me. i explained to her i have just moved here and dont know anyone yet so i would be worried about meeting the daily rent (£20). So she has agreed to do a % basis with me. She has offered me 50-50 with her supplying the products. (The salons choice of products) I will not just be doing nails, i am also qualified in eye treatments and makeup so will be offering these to and anything else i want to train in.
She has also agreed to pay for any additional products, half for advertising and half for any training courses i want to go on.
The only thing is... I need a regular income. I have managed to get a part time evening bar job in a local hotel which i will keep but that could be 2 nights a week or maybe 5, but its unpredictable!!!
I thought i also could offer mobile (acrylics only) ( i dont drive yet but its a very small town i live in) but would this be seen as conflicting??
I can also claim tax credits bt in order to do this i need to provide them with an estimate for both jobs per annum
What do you think??? Is this the way to go??? I think in the long run this will be a good way for me to train in some new treatments and perfect my skills and get some more experience..
does anyone have any advice on how to work out a rough estimate as i have no idea at the begining what i will be taking!?
Any advice/opions much appreciated!!:green:
Thanks xx
