I too would be interested know the answer to this
Jojo and Karen, I charge 20% of the price of Brisa rebalance for Shellac Finish. And from £2.50 to £10 top of that for art, depending on the difficulty.
It's difficult to encourage people to have nail art, especially, when they have to pay for it.
Start by offering one ring finger art (something relatively simple and not time consuming) on the house. It worked for me at the start. Now I know if they want it they will pay for it.
Make up colour pops with some Shellac nail art, attach a price to it ( how much you wish to
Charge per nail) and display at your station. You will see how much interest it would generate.
And remember to share it with us here)
Best of luck

Many thanks Nataliya! :biggrin: I was wondering if you would charge more if its a Shellac finish! Because if you didn't then it wouldn't be worth doing has it would be quicker/cheaper to do normal nail art.

Hiya,
Just out of interest also, do you display these prices on you price list or do you simply tell the client if they ask for it?
Just wondering because I'm trying to keep my price list simple without being to complicated if you know what I mean.
Thanks a million, your work is AMAZING!

This looks like wrinkled Shellac with a lighter colour rubbed into the wrinkles .. not sure this would be a good idea as you could not ensure the longevity of the product to the client if the Shellac is thick and wrinkled.

Looks like a textured surface to me, i can see through the print and i think i can see her brush handle at the back. Could be a wrong guess but looks very pretty.....come on spill the beans please! :biggrin:
Mizzy_Dizzy... I bet your hands are constantly covered in glitter!? :lol:

It's hard to see isn't it?
It doesn't look like wrinkles to me... looks more like she pressed something onto the Shellac to create a pattern.
Well that's what I thought it looked like!

Cheap ain't nice and nice ain't cheap <3
Is there MINX or something underneath it?? Come on, spill, spill

Sorry lol I totally forgot!
Geeg is right she knows I emailed her the other day to ask about wearability of wrinkled shellac
It was a total mistake that I did this I was doing some nail art and totally lost track of the thin layers lol and it crinkled so I was going to cover it with black pool and as I applied that thin it caught the crinkle and looked cool, kind of like animal print,
With top coat it's smooth as always not bumpy ,
I'm not sure how good the wearability will be I'm going to try it on me first and see how it goes ,

I love everyones nail art How longs does it take to apply nail art like that on a client ? and what would it cost to have nail art like that done ?
Just curious cause its not your typical manicure.

It doesn't take that long really. It depends on the difficulty of the design required. Can take 5 min but can also be 30 min extra.
I charge for time and skill. Anything between £1-£10 per nail. With Shellac art I charge extra £5-£10 on top of my Shellac price.
