    Nail art charge

    Hi there! I am still struggling to price nail art. Currently I charge around $1 per nail. I have one client who comes in and wants a different design on every nail, which winds up being tedious and time consuming. I only charge her $10 extra in keeping with my prices, but her sets usually...

    Help finding a color!

My boss has shown me a few times how she wants the acrylic nail to look at the end. She gives great advice on shaping the nail, except I am having...

    Hard gel infill issues

    HI all, I'm in the States and relatively new to enhancements. I work mainly with clear hard gel and usually polish with regular or gel polish. My problem comes when time to infill and rebalance. While I know I'm going to cover up the nail with polish in the end, I still want my infill to look...

    Hi everyone! I'm new to the industry, and will be taking my licensing test within the next couple of months. I do my own nails frequently for practice and to try new ideas. Thursday, I ran across a problem and thought someone here might have an idea. On a YouTube video, I saw a woman...
