Hi All,

I hope you can help me!! I am doing my VTCT at college at the mo and just got some homework to do......
I need to find the coomercially accepted times for nail treatments.
I have walked round Winchester and Salisbury and have manged to get a good handful of times from these salons but was hoping for a more national input too!
So if you could spare me 5 mins, please can you tell me your times for completing:-

Full Set Acrylic
Full Set Gel
Full Set Fibre Glass
Rebalance
Infills
Full Soak Off
1 Nail Repair
Basic Nail Art
Airbrushing

If you have a website please put that on too so I can print you out!!
Thank you very much in advance

Full Set Acrylic - N/A
Full Set Gel - average 90 minutes, but depends on client's needs and how much I talk!
Full Set Fibre Glass - N/A
Rebalance 60 - 90 minutes dependant on what state they are in
Infills 45 - 90 minutes dependant what state they are in
Full Soak Off - 30 -40 minutes for a full buff off of gel, can't soak them
1 Nail Repair - 10- 15 minutes
Basic Nail Art - don't do it

If you have a website please put that on too so I can print you out!!

Rebalance almost 2 hours sometimes
Infills an hour
Full Soak Off 30 mins without manicure

I have only been qualified just a year now, but am happy with my times. I'm sure I'll get quicker with experience in every aspect.

Hi ladies,

what are fiber glass nails??
 
Full Set Acrylic - 50 minutes
Full Set Gel - 50 minutes
Full Set Fibre Glass - n/a
Rebalance - 40 minutes
Infills - always rebalance
Full Soak Off - less than 30 minutes
1 Nail Repair - 10 minutes
Basic Nail Art - 5 - 15 minutes
Airbrushing - 5 - 30 minutes


The time above are just average. If the clients want long nails add 10 - 15 minutes, if short nails minus 10 minutes. If I feel like talking that day add 15 minutes. If the nail plate is in a bad condition, add 10 - 15 minutes. HTH's!!
 
Thank you soooo much to all who have replied

I appreciate it very much.
