hi all
been doing nails for an awfully long time and have always beleived you charge a fair price for nails if you do them well, do no damage, have been trained by the best and educate your clients about them. I charge £30 for a full set, £18 for infill and £25 for rebalance.
There has been a massive influx of discount salons who charge £20 for a full set, shellac and nail art.
I have educated my clients as to why they are so cheap, they all accept the drill hurt them, there nails are sore and weak - but hey, its £20 sorry!!
they are all apologetic, love my nails and they way i do them, but its £20 and they get a lot more added on (fake shellac and nail art)
I am losing customers day by day because they are cheap, and they dont care about their nails.
what do i do. Join them in the price war?? I never ever wanted to do this, but if it carries on i will have no customers left!! its not been a problem for the past 6 years until middle of last year, when loads opened up, now i'm losing loads. What would you advise???:cry:
