The thing is though,
So many people tend to think that it is "normal" for it too hurt when they have their nails done, or that we "rip them off" (overcharging that is, not rip the nails off !) because they can get their nails done at a nss much cheaper ,
They think its normal to have weak thin nails after having artificial enhancements on.
Everything us professionals detest ,so many people think is "just the way it is"
Now as individuals we can all try to educate our clients, and hope that they go and tell their friends or anybody else who uses NSS salons how professional we are compared to these salons , and hope their friends listen,
I think once you have a old NSS client ,you have probably got them for good.
but its getting them in.
But how do we do this without sounding like we are just trying to keep them ourselves ?
or without slating NSS and risking sounding unprofessional ?
I read sassys post about not slating them, but pointing out all the positives about how professional WE are, but again, without pointing out the differences some clients just wont reallise,how important these facts are !
What can we do as a community to make people aware ?
Obviously the media are only interested in a good story which is usually a bad story
What can we do ? is there anything ?
Or do we really just have to keep quiet and forget about it ,?
Im not really bothered over the fact that NSS have clients that could be ours blah blah blah, Im lucky not to have one in my town,
What I am bothered about (same as all of you im sure) is what is shown on this clip,
people are being put off having services that we provide for life. or are even being scarred for life,by something which should be beautiful, and enhance their appearence and confidence.
ooh was that a bit of a long one ??? I need a brew now !!!
