Ok following on from a recent thread that i don't want to hijack. I'd love to hear people opinions on why they feel they have to conform to the prices around them if they are offering a much better service.
I wholeheartedly believe that nail techs train so hard, and spend a fortune on product and training to only go out and struggle to earn minimum wage. Its crazy! Being a true nail professional is the hardest of all beauty aspects to learn in my opinion yet is viewed by most professionals and the public as an inexpensive treat. Why is it that a professional hair colour, which costs about the same in product and takes approximately the same amount of time is on average 3 times the price of a shellac manicure?
Do you honestly believe that what you charge is what your worth?
Everyone is welcome to discuss, the more the merrier I want to hear from newbies just starting out to seasoned professionals. I will add my own thoughts later but would love to hear some of your opinions first.
PLUS this beats another "what colour will i get" thread, I miss the educational threads salon geek used to have going so i'm starting my own!!
