    Insurance

    I'm in Canada, and I work out of my house. Not sure if the regulations are different. But my house insurance told my to get separate insurance - which I did. Because house insurance doesn't cover my business stuff. As well if I never got insurance and a fire broke out in my treatment room...

    App for keeping client records?

    I personally use recipe cards to keep track of their records. And I've bought different coloured cards for different treatments.

    Extractor fan

    I use the maximist overspray extraction fan. And I love it! It took me awhile to find one, but I found this was one of the best deals for price and how much air it filters. The one thing that I also really liked was that this fan had three setting - most ones I looked at only had one. It's...

    Client sensitive to fumes of lash glue

    Thanks for the tips! I have a nano mister that I use throughout the treatment to help her. I also use a sensitive glue. And according to the glue she must keep her eyes shut for an extra 10 minutes after I'm done - which I do. But I think the main thing is she doesn't actually fully close...

    Light therapy

    Thanks for the information Mel! Just wasn't sure as I've tried a red light therapy, but just assumed it was the same as LED therapy. Guess not tho.

    Light therapy

    I was just wondering is the led therapy same as red light therapy? Or are they two different things?

    Client sensitive to fumes of lash glue

    Hey all, I have a dilemma and wanted to know if anybody else has had this problem. I had a new client that is sensitive to the fumes of the lash glue when their being applied. Her eyes burn and she can't sit the entire time because the fumes burn her eyes too much. She's bad this problem with...

    Google Maps

    I agree with Grace_Hair that you'd have to be registered with Google. But to be ranked better (for searches not sure if it works the same with maps) but is to get lots of engagement - think people commenting and sharing or Facebook posts, lots of visiting to your website. That stuff will help...

    High heels - tips please!

    Are they just uncomfortable or do you think they are hurting because they aren't fitting right? I don't have problem wearing heals for long periods of time - don't know how I got so lucky. But I also mound my shoes to my feet. And what I do is with my blow drying on high heat put it into the...

    Young girl wanting lash extensions

    Hey everyone, I feel a little bit ridiculous asking this, but I am curious at what age do you draw the line for doing lash extensions? For most my treatments I won't do anybody who's under 16, and some I won't do anybody under 18. But I had a mom ask me about her 14 year old getting lash...

    December offers

    For December I have some retail stuff I haven't sold that I bundled and packaged nicely for Christmas. Those will be discounted but my services won't be. And I've found that some clients that never wanted to spend the money on say some aftercare for spray tanning are now buying the packages.

    Card payment methods for mobile therapist

    I have no idea actually. I know most clients I have, even myself, have a credit debit card. So I can use it anywhere that takes visa but it pulls from my account. Has there been talk of Square debit? Because that would be amazing!

    Card payment methods for mobile therapist

    I use Square and I love it. There are no fees or charges to set up, or that I pay when not in use. And it's pretty reasonably priced. The selling point for me was not monthly fee, as I wasn't sure if people would use it as I take cheques, cash and e-transfers. I thought about PayPal but...

    Using/paying for stock photos for your business

    Thanks for your input! That's exactly my thoughts. I am awful at taking photos, they just look like I don't know how to use a camera. I think I'm going to use some. And who knows maybe in a year my photography skills will have gotten better!

    Help from fellow mobile therapists

    One thing that I have done is talk to local real estate companies (I live in a small town), and they put together a welcome basket for people who purchase their homes. So I approached them to see if I could add anything. Of course they let me so I just add gift cards and my business card since...

    How can I spot a fake make-up artist?

    Could you not leave a comment on her Facebook page.. Sure would help warn others about her. For me I creep Facebook, websites, anything I can find about a person or company before committing to their service. I do read reviews - which sometimes aren't accurate but seeing them and how the...

    Electric spray tan tent

    Is your current tent out of shape? Because mine when it's open the pieces holding it have bent funny. And it doesn't have the same shape. I've been looking at getting one of those backdrop things for tanning. I have looking into the electric tanning tents and I have heard really good...

    Using/paying for stock photos for your business

    Hey everyone, I just looking for advice or opinions I guess. Do any of you or have any of you used or considered using or buying stock photos to put on your website/Facebook or in pamphlets/leaflets? I am looking into stock photos and I just don't know if using stock photos will help. I think...

    Dermalogica poplularity

    I don't do facials or sell anything for skin care. But I do get facials and all my skincare is dermalogica. I just recently found out you could buy it online. The place I go to buy it is priced the same as online (and I don't pay shipping and handling). That said I have very sensitive skin...
