I need to vent.. Sorry in advance!
I've just sat for 2 hours doing a gel manicure & pedicure for a close family member for her to then tell me that she doesn't have the money until she gets paid! And this isn't the first time!
I'm happy to offer my family discounts but I just think it takes the P a bit when i only charge a tenner per set just to help cover costs!
As this isn't the first time I'm now reconsidering what I should charge my family. I don't want to seem tight and I don't want to lose them as clients but I've recently made beauty my full time job and I will soon be renting a room.
What do you offer your friends and family, especially if you are also self employed? And how can I let them all know that I can't be so generous anymore without sounding rude about it?
