Where do you spend the most time? โฐ
A lot of nail techs struggle with the idea of "I'm too slow". But I think this is relative to the quality you are providing. So let's have a chat: Where are you spending most of your time during a service? I'm going to time myself today and put my time stamps in the comments as well, and I invite you to do the same, so we can compare and talk about it ๐Ÿ’›

Atm if it takes me less than 5 minutes i dont charge. Something like a few lines or dots. Unless it involves chrome/glitter then i charge extra. Then everything else i charge for accordingly. Before i start the nail art i will always price it so they know.

Removal of sets
I'd love to know how long it takes everyone to do a full soak off. Currently it's taking me an hour, which feels sooo long, but then to protect nail health I think it's not too bad? I feel I'm comparing myself to chop shops at the moment, but any advice would help โ™ก It always makes me nervous when I have to do a fresh 'gelx' set. 15 mins - use efile to debulk 90% product on 1 hand and apply acetone foils 15 mins - soaking one hand whilst debulking other and applying acetone foils 30mins - pushing product off, buffing natural nail and tidying up cuticles, length and reshaping. Thank you ๐Ÿค

Christmas Wreath/Tree French
Apparently Iโ€™m obsessed with Christmas wreaths so hereโ€™s another look inspired by them ๐Ÿ˜† All you need are 3 green gel polishes and some spangles (which I bought years ago and have maybe used once ๐Ÿซ  - so itโ€™s a nice way to make use of stock I probably need to get through)

Thatโ€™s a cute way! Love it
Iโ€™m sorry for the delay!
Gals, I promise my Christmas tutorials are coming - editing is just a biatch and more time consuming than I anticipated ๐Ÿ˜… Itโ€™s very much tempting me to close my salon so I can focus solely on this ๐Ÿคฃ
Iโ€™m sorry for the delay!
