Newbie Needing Advice

[mrsnails]

So, Im a newbie to this whole world, some of you may know that Im booked to start the CND Foundation course in 2 weeks time (I cannot wait, so excited!) but I need some advice for after.

My 'dream' as such, is to become a mobile tech/working from home, until my children start school then I'd love to have my own salon.

What course would you advise taking after my signature5?

When should I start charging people? How much should I charge?? Do I charge a small amount whilst Im doing my practise on people for my signature5?

Just want to do the right thing-I dont want to do loads for free and then when I pass these people still expect it to be free, but dont wanna charge people alot for practising, its a whole minefield ! Just want to do the right thing!!

Any advice would be greatfully received ! :green:

Well done on booking your first course. When you go you will be given all the information you need. I would advise to think of a few good friends and family members that will pay you a small fee to cover your costs and that will give you honest, tactfull criticism. In this way you will build your confidence and skill and can see week to week how your nails are standing up and what corrections you will need to make. Once these nails are perfected it allows you to start charging on regular clients.
