That post has depressed me! :cry:
Everyone is so fast!
I have been "doing nails" on a mobile basis for 16 months now, my first set took about 4.5 hours and even now it STILL takes me 3 - 3.5 hours!
I work full time, in a stressful job and have other commitments outside of work, so I only do a set or two of nails say once a fortnight, which I know isn't very often, but I just cannot do nails in the week evenings as I am so tired after my day job, then at weekends I am completely knackered, and if I get more than two sets to do then my weekend's gone and I don't feel like I have had a day off.. Yet I know the key to getting my time down is to do nails more often!
I did a sculpting class with Ann Swain last November and she suggested that I get a Saturday job at a salon that uses Creative as she thinks that will get my speed up. Sounds like a great idea.
But would a Salon seriously take on someone who takes 3.5 hours, who prob has bad habits from working alone?
Anybody been in the same boat as me?
How can I get faster without compromising anything?
I use Creative Perfect Powders and Rentention +, lately I have been sculpting (SInce my class.) but am fine with tip and overlay.
Advice appreciated geeklins.
