Perhaps she doesn't feel confident enough and is trying to get people to practice on? Or she might be ridiculously fast and gets them done in 15mins! Lol x

Why yes I have! I believe we're talking about crazy prices, the worst we've seen! And not whether they are doing it as a hobby, or uninsured. It's actually all about silly prices :)


Oh Please.... REALLY!
"3.36, 9.69, 1.29, 6.99 Shellac, lashes, make-up, brow tint" doesn't make for very good reading does it! Well it doesn't to me!
 
Looks like this thread is going off track...

I knew someone who was doing an offer for 50% off everything! Even colours they were charging only £20 for! How do they make any money! Some people are just really desperate for clients they think if they lower their prices they will get lots of clients, but it doesn't work like that x
 
They are ALL £7per set where I live! Standard! £10 is considered expensive to be honest!!!!

Where on earth do you live in London?

Orly gel FX £8.00 a set.......jeepers I'm rubbing my eyes and hoping when I refocus it's a typo!!!!

Talk about undervaluing your skills, training and the brand you work with.

A file and polish in the salon I worked in in 1997 was £6.50.....come on, good value is one thing a total giveaway is another :0/

:eek:

Wow. I thought you were kidding! It must be so tough in those areas. They must be genius up sellers to be staying in business!

No they aren't it's just they buy rubbish cheap products from china and have loads of customers. the amount of people round here that do their nails is ridiculous. They have endless quantities of customers most of them school girls though. However for serious nail techs or ppl trying to provide a high quality service (like me) it's kind of hard to get anywhere round here!
 
There's a place in bluewater that is doing Shellac for £32 which I think is quite a lot! When I actually had a look at what they use..... bluesky and cco.... what a con!!! What can I even do about it? Nothing :( x
