So to get a yellow you have to use additives and then you charge more for using additives?
Clients won't want to pay extra to get such a basic colour as yellow!
This is what I'm finding Angelina!

Conny I have used quiet a few additives Nd they come out beautifully on the colour pops and on my clients, the problem I have however is I find that sometimes I get a kind of halo around the cuticle where the additive wont stick but I also find that as the clients wear the, the additive only at the free edge starts to chip away, any clues what I'm doing wrong?
Mine do
But i offer more then 100 different colors Shellac (some of them layered at no extra cost) to chose from.
Not all other brands have 100 colors i think.
I only charge 25€ for Shellac (choice of 100 colors), my clients don't pay 4€ more for "yellow", I can offer 10 different types of yellow :lol: and that is why my clients are willing to pay 29€ for a custom Shellac yellow, or purple, or orange, or pastel... many other salons charge more for a color out of the bottle.
(I'm mobile & slightly cheaper than salons in my area)
