yeah I agree that it would cost too much to give away 100 free samples. I do like the idea of giving away a free treatment when they book a full set of nails, not sure what though? Also my problem is that in the salon I work in, downstairs is the hairdressers and upstairs is a beauty room...

Hi thanks for the replies, I think I will do nail art but wanted to show a few things so not to eliminate the guests who wouldnt be interested in nail art. I thought myself about the one nail idea, but was unsure if this was a bit mean, making someone walk around the rest of the night with...
