Which part of the service you offer do you love ?
And is there any part you hate or dread ?

I love it when I do a new set of nails they always look so shiney and new,
I used to hate infills it was the filing that I hated it took me like what seemed forever to get it right.
 
Similar to you, I love it when I apply cuticle oil after having applied Glaze`n`Go, the smooth shiny surface feels so nice.

was going to say I love it when I see them wave to me as they go out the gate :lol: but only at the end of the day :zzz:.

I hate it when a client comes in with trashed nails and you know they just haven't cared for them my stomach drops when I realise how much more work they have caused me! :mad:
 
My fave part of an enhancement service is applying product and changing the nails....finishing, well finishes the job off but applying product is the most satisfying part of the job for me xxx
 
rubbing cuticle oil on the finished product - love it! hate new whites or a soak of and new set, just takes too long, and too sore on me arms!
 
My fav part is to do nail art because I thats the bit that I enjoy and I hate filing xx
 
Mmmmmm I think I have a few favourites...
I love removing cuticle and seeing the nail underneath once I have prepped... it looks all clean and lovely !
I LOVE applying custom blend p&w's now I have the cnd opaques...I also find smile lines therapeutic now....

I used to dread blending tips...but now I have good quality ones I enjoy that too lol..

erm..... I think as time has gone by and my skills have improved (combined with fantastic products) I don't really think of anything as a chore anymore ..god there must be something............

oooooooo YES ! Removing nails .....I HATE IT !!!!

It takes too long...its boring....but sometimes It's just gotta be done :sad:
My ultimate goal in life I think shall be to NEVER have a client who needs or wants a soak off ever ever again !

(edit to add.... I also don't like removing cuticle from toenails.... not even when I do my own !)
 
hmmm. I cant think of one favourite. I like every stage from the prepping, to applying tips and blending them, to applying the product then later filing/buffing then seeing the finished nail. Each completed stage feels very satisfying.
With pedicures I love removing the cuticles from toes especially the big toe and removing hard skin. I'm not keen on polishing toes or fingers but I do like nail art.

I must be a weirdo, I love it all :eek:

My least favourite is soaking off but I only have to that if it involves colour, but while that is brewing I am dying to get new colours on.

I love every part of my job:)

Lol same here... the whole soak off I am like a bored toddler thinking to myself (in a childish tune)
'c'mooonnnn I am borrreedddd... just hurry up and be off with youuuuu...I want to get new shiney product ooonnn and show this cliiieeenntt who's nails have previously been damaged what good condition her nails are still iiiinnnnnn underneattthhh ...'

:green:
 
I love love love removing cuticle its sooo satisfying. And I love the whole enhancemens especialy the finish and oil. I dont like soak off but what I do like about the soak off is when the client says oh my nails look realy nice I thaught acrylic ruined the nails (smug ha ha )x
 
Love it all!!!

BUT

Far and above the most rewarding part of my personal experience is seeing nails that were once bitten chewed picked or just not looked after, become healthy and happy... and knowing the clients are happy too!
 
Fi, we can be weirdo's together:hug: I love it all and could not say I hate any part of what I do - I am sooooo lucky.

My favourite bit is when my clients say "thank you, lovely as always with a smile on their face when they look at their nails", hand over the money:lol:, rebook and I know they are very pleased, and freely advertise my work.

I enjoy all the practice I do, the learning and my clients.

My least favourite is the filing of nails from another salon, especially when they are mountains and the extension edge is almost 1.5ml thick:eek:, but then hey every down side has a positive and they soon become clients that give me "the favourite bit" as per above.:green:
 
I'm a wierdo as well because I love it all too, though I am less partial to filing, so I compensate by sculpting with brush not my file. I must admit though I am not keen on belnding in tips, more because in the past the dust has set off allergies :eek: similar to hayfever, so I compensate again by using mainly Performance tips from CND.

But I love everything from practising, applications, removal, infill, nail art and more and more learning!!!! :)

Oh LOVE it all, when it comes to nails.... I'm not great at say polishing but want to be...

When it comes to bodysugaring I'm not keen on doing a whole leg or even half a leg (causes me a bit of pain in my injured finger) but I just decided on my prices for my new salon and on those two things they were actually raised a lot, so I get paid well for it:green: (not very businesslike I know)
 
At the moment im finding it hard to like anything i do as it never turns out right ( but i am new to nails)

But what i hate the most is when clients come to me with nails on, want them removed and put a new set on, so really i hate removal of nails id rather start on a fresh straight away
 
My favoutire thing is seeing a beautiful set of enhancements, all shiny and new and gleaming especially on a nail biter!! I love to see the look on there face when they realise how thier nails CAN look!!

I hate rebalances.....I have little confidence in them, I seem to file too much...must work on this

I also LOVE listening to excuses and stories about missing nails or reasons why solar couldnt be applied daily!!:lol:
 
I don't have any parts that i hate....to hate re balances would be to hate 80% of my job...as its what i mainly do and that would be worrying.

The part i think i dislike the most is having to fight with "some" clients stiff hands/fingers....it makes my joints hurt and thats not good. Some clients kind of try to hard and turn their hands thinking its helping you....ITS NOT....floppy hands that only move when i move them help me....:lol:
