Just learned facials/massage can I go out to clients...

Hi all
Just started college, well, 6 weeks ago! Lecturer says we can now start going out to clients but can just charge a fiver or so for products. I've just ordered a massage table and products (cleansers/toners/masks/exfoliators) need to get towels, ordered some bowls and spatulas too.
Wondering if anyone can give me advice please?

Hi sweetie, I would advise you get some student insurance before you are 'let loose'.
Enjoy honey, and good luck with the rest of your course!

Like your tutor said, just charge enough to cover your costs x

Yes def get student insurance and charge a little for your time as well - I have learned that you need to feel valued for carrying out treatments and feel as though you are offering value for money for your clients. All the best - the more practice you get in now the better!! Good luck:biggrin:

I agree that you will need student insurance. I believe that you cannot charge until you are actually qualified and have your certificate, but you can ask for a donation to cover the costs of your products. xx
