    Refusing client

    I have a client who keeps requesting long, thick builder gel with tips. She’s been having acrylic for years (not by me) and I have converted her, however, she is of ill health, having falls, breaking nails and damaging her nails. I have told her a few times now to have a break as it is not good...

    Newly self employed. Advice needed.

    I am in Manchester and it seems to be that the average is 50/50. Some weeks I can make a good amount of money (with no no shows and cancellations) and the earning potential would be great if this was the case! I just feel like I’m putting in a lot of work and stuck at it on a crappy wage...

    Newly self employed. Advice needed.

    Yes exactly, I worked it out and I was on around £6 an hour with the wage I got! Less than my wage when employed…

    Newly self employed. Advice needed.

    I am 21, 22 in July. She told me she couldn’t afford to pay me being employed anymore, which I don’t understand. I can easily make £3,500-£4,000 on average a month when it’s not mega busy or mega quiet, and I do all treatments. Microneedling, all the expensive stuff that’s over £100. It’s an...

    Newly self employed. Advice needed.

    Thank you for your advice. I do have my level 3 however the extra bit of my course means I get my level 3 apprenticeship. If I left, I’ve still got my level 3. So I’m unsure on what to do. In been talking to some people and my college tutor even said 40% seems like a lot to take considering I’m...

    Newly self employed. Advice needed.

    Hi, so I would like to get some honest advice. I have posted similar threads in the past and I have also mentioned my previous issues regarding my beauty career. I am going to explain my whole situation. I’m lost on what to do 😢 It’s a long read, sorry I started beauty in 2018, had my daughter...

    Eyebrow tint

    Hi so I’ve been doing tinting for years now and I have been doing brow lamination for around a year. Anyway, I had a regular client in yesterday for her brow lam, which includes a tint & shape, her brow tail on her left brow didn’t take! The rest did! I thought this was so odd. She had hair but...

    EYELASH EXTENSIONS!!!

    I HATE doing them! I am employed and my manager is only in one/two days a week so have to do them! I have one regular client who has literally NO lashes and I mean none! She expects me to put individual lashes on non existent lashes and it bugs me so much because on this client, as well as most...

    Opinions? Please be honest.

    🤣 if I don’t get a little break I go all dizzy and sick. I’m getting my bloods done at the doctors next week because it’s getting worse and with no break it’s awful - I had to go home the other week as I nearly fainted! It is just us two for the time being yes, she’s back 2 short days if people...

    Haha ❤️ I’m fully qualified in my level 2 but just not my level 3, which is body massage and facial electrical. I’ve dealt with all sorts of accidents, complaints (very few) and awkward clients all by myself! I am literally running her business, exactly. She has said she’s looking for another...

    Opinions? Please be honest.

    Sorry for the late reply. So the issue still remains, I’m not as stressed but it’s still an issue. My boss is looking for someone else but I’m not sure where she’s at with that. Not to necessarily help me but to earn her more money as she’s not getting the money in as she says. My college tutor...

    Opinions? Please be honest.

    Sorry I’ve only just seen this. Yes I do what you are saying on this comment. I try make things quicker and easier but some days it doesn’t make a difference. I’m hitting my targets and can make up to £450 a day on a decent day if people turn up and want what they have booked in etc… and I’m on...

    Opinions? Please be honest.

    Hi thank you for the reply. That does sound like a really good idea but she wouldn’t let me do that, it’s anything and everything to make her money, even if it means me being stressed and running behind. You’re right, I do like to have a moan then get on with my day but then I guess I need to...

    Opinions? Please be honest.

    It’s awful when you don’t enjoy work and the thing is my boss won’t change the way things work, I just know it from previous things she’s said. When I’m done with my apprenticeship (the plan is go self employed) I’m going to see if I can change certain things and if not then I’ll have to see...
