I gained NVQ Beauty Therapy 13 years ago and i have gone back to college and i am doing ITEC Beauty Specialist which i will finish in June. So i am really qualified in everything.

For reference i will be doing the treatments mobile and i am fully insured with BABTAC.

Thank you for your help as always.

Hi, I qualified as an Itec beauty specialist 4 years ago. The price list seems fine to me.

Some places charge around the same whether trained or not but its up to you really.

- what about eyelash extensions? I think i did them at college in the course.

 

[Impulse1976]

Hi thanks for that. Just wanted someone to confirm i wasnt over charging or under charging for the treatments i wanted to do. When you getting up to speed its hard to do the treatment in the allocated times as well so if they are not paying full price i dont think they will mind. We havent really done eye lash extensions, i have done the ones that you put on with glue but not the permanent extensions.

Hi Samantha I am in the same boat as you. I trained almost 25 years ago but I was in the trade for many years. I have only discounted prices on the new things I have learnt such as brazilians, tanning & threading. What may be worth thinking is that when you have clientele will you and they be able to make a jump to higher prices? I only intend to keep my lower prices for a certain duration to prevent being taken for granted. I would tend to make your prices the real ones but discount some for a set percentage for a limited time period. Just an idea.

Hi there, I'm with Essentia on this one make your final price list (full price) and offer a discount for the first three months of trading. That leaves no question as to when your prices will go up and why.

 

[Impulse1976]

Thanks guys i see where your coming from, i might loose some clients if the prices jump up too much. I might add a bit more on to each treatment and then state on the price list that all prices will go up from 1st July just so people know.
