The market is saturated with rubbish not saturated with great therapists whether it be hair, nails or whatever; it is saturated with mediocre therapists all competing with each other.
Like Persianista, I charge allot but at the same time, I have to be able to DELIVER. You can only charge what you are worth if you are worth it!! and can deliver the goods. Make yourself worth it, and it matters not a damn what others charge around you. If you are only as good/bad as the competition then you won't get a look in.
Education is the key. Keep updated and current. Know what's going on in the industry. Know everything there is to know about your products and show it by talking about it. Remember while sitting in that chair, your job is not to gossip or just chat, but to sell both yourself, your knowledge and your products.
People love to blame the world financial crisis for all their woes, but no ... I know many nail artists who are brand spanking new to the industry during this crisis and they are doing fantastic because they are doing fantastic work. Not to mention that all statistics prove that the nail sector has grown massively during the whole of the financial crisis so no excuses about that or market saturation. Plenty of us are doing very very well in this business and there are good reasons for it.
