Hope people can help me, I finished my training in Acrylic Nails just a few months ago and haven't done that many nails since, and I am desperate to practice and get stuck in as I want to perfect my techniques etc so I can do a good job each and every time I do a set of nails.
So to do this I am obviously not charging a full and proper price as I feel my work is not up to standard yet and I still have a lot of perfecting to do.. but I am hardly getting any clients :|. Is it because I am charging?? I don't really feel I can do this treatment free, because I have to cover costs of products (NSI) and cover petrol costs getting to clients etc.. so I am charging £15.. Is this too much do you think? Should I lower to just £10?
I don't think I am doing too badly at my sets and clients seem happy who I have done, but these have been one offs/going out type of clients with not a lot of money, so haven't been able to re-book regularly etc.. As far as I am aware the nails have been lasting at least 2 weeks before needing infilling (though they have just taken them off themselves grr) Should I charge for infilling or do it for free so I can practice this??
agghh so many questions etc - sorry Geeks. Just getting so disheartened, as I so want to perfect this treatment as I love doing it but cant get the clients to get better, and without getting better I can't get returning clients!! :irked:
