I completed my beauty and nails courses in 2008, I have tried to start up once before - due to family circumstances I had to stop and ended up goin back to my office job. I started beauty again in Feb this year - first off practicing on family and friends, then offering my services at reduced rates to clients and I am now finally at the stage where I am charging full price.
At the moment I am offering spray tanning, bio sculpture and lash extensions. I am still charging a reduced price for lashes as I am not quite good enough yet to charge full price. (I have been doing lashes since April/May this year).
I have been advertising of facebook which got me lots of interest in the beginning - have had most clients through facebook but now my work seems to have gone completly dead! I have had no work all week and last week I had 2 spray tanning parties. I was quite pleased with having 2 parties last week as I dont expect to be fully booked but am struggling a bit at the moment in getting new interest. at the moment i have no bookings at all for the next few weeks.
Any ideas how else i can advertise and to get a new business off the ground? This is my full time work now (after being made redundent from office job) and this is all i have ever wanted to do.
Any help would be great, I am getting a bit disheartend! xxx
