Once you start, you cant stop! Nail art is so much fun.
Our book is used by so many beginners, everyone has to start somewhere, there is a full page just on how to apply a rhinestone!
Start with a small kit, some stones, flatstones, striping tape, foil leafing, transfers, glitter, studs etc (we do a sample kit with all the above for £6.00)
Find out what you and your clients will like. Build up a samll display in a box, on colour pops, on sticks in a vase, or even on a mirror. Start with simple designs, dont go OTT, it puts people off, remember less is more, french is great with little extras like stones and tranfers just slide on!
Take pics, build up a little photo albumn, where it on your own nails and do friends and family as they are walking adverts.
We did one free rhinestone on a little finger, (cost 3p each), to see how they liked it, and they all came back for more!
Good luck, and welcome to the world of nail art!
PS For those who feel that nail art is not worth offering, thats fine, each to their own, but nail art and airbrushing is all i do, and if im still here 15 years later, there must be someone out there who likes it!
