Hi Everyone!!
Im relatively new to the Geek world! I was a trainee hairdresser for 3 years but had to give it up due to dermatitis and had a miserable 5 years until I decided to do a Nail Tech course.
It was amazing and very thorough and the tutor also offered to teach us Lash extensions and spray tanning. I also pop into her salon for chats and show her my latest work!
Anyway, I have all my certs, pictures of nails & lashes etc that Ive done on a facebook page that I made to advertise my mobile business but I get next to no clients...My work isnt shoddy and my prices arent ridiculous on either end. However, my friends sister is doing the same treatments as me etc in roughly the same area and seems to be undercutting me in every way from clients to prices. I recently saw a set of L&Ps she did (I use Gel) and they were a disgrace...I know the two of us trained at the same time but I genuinely believe that I offer a more professional service for the time Ive been doing it.
The thing is that I really need to start getting clients in and I dont really know where to start as I feel like she's taking all my potential clients.
Has anyone any tips or anything for me? Thanks in advance and sorry for the rant!
