    Commission vs rent a chair?

    Hi all, I was hoping for a bit of advice please. I've met a lovely lady recently who is considering opening a small nail salon in my town. She is more a fan of gel so was looking for someone who could offer acrylic too. I have no client base as I haven't worked for a number of years, so she very...

    Incentives being mobile?

    I'm not actually mobile yet but just as a suggestion (for what it's worth lol) how about 10% off for new customers? Then give a loyalty card to begin with their next appointment? As for your existing customers give a loyalty card and give them one free stamp? So they get two points in one...

    Please help me decide on a hair extension course?

    Apparently studio 58 are really good. They are just too far away for me :( I've been qualified in hairdressing for 20 years and I'm under no illusion it will be a walk in the park. My problem is is I'm a perfectionist lol :p Sent from my HP Slate 7 using SalonGeek mobile app

    Please help me decide on a hair extension course?

    Thanks for replying, I got in touch with Balmain too but the next course available that I could get to isn't until February next year :( I think bonds will be the way to go as well as micro rings, gives me a couple of options to begin with. Sent from my HP Slate 7 using SalonGeek mobile app

    Please help me decide on a hair extension course?

    Well I've been contacted by a lovely lady at connect 2hair today and have pretty much decided I'm going to book...she suggested micro rings to begin with. Any advice on another possible method I can do on the day? I don't want to do more than two at once. And also is it worth me doing the...

    Morning all, I have a lady who is getting married in November and wants a full set of gels for the wedding. But she also wants her nails doing for her hen night about a fortnight before. She has never had enhancements of any description before and is a busy mum, so I don't think I would hold...

    NSI gel lifting only on white tips

    I would be just hazarding a guess at this as i am only newly qualified, but could it be a problem with the gel not curing properly with it being on a white tip iykwim. I seem to remember either being told or reading that the light can't get all the way through to cure if a white tip is used...
