Could you chat about moving from a career job (being the bread winner and carrying benefits) to being a nail tech? What obstacles would I run into and how to avoid them? I’m scared to death to make the move but my passion is the beauty industry, not being in front of a computer 10 hrs/day. I’m a licensed nail tech already and I’m scared of failing. Thank you YN for all of your videos they are truly amazing and have helped me in so many ways. ♥️

I love the idea of starting in a commission situation and moving up to booth rental and that is most likely what Im going to do. If someone wants to choose to start off in a booth then that is fine too because then they will have control of everything.Thank you for sharing this helpful information with everyone!
@Amrbbg2 жыл бұрын
I definitely agree with Tracey, im more of a I like to have control and if you are a beginner ofc commission is your best bet but if you do have clientele already , renting a room is definitely a must.
@Teenitesy4 жыл бұрын
If you go from an employment situation to booth rental, you may not be able to take your client contact information with you since that is the property of the salon. This is especially true if the contact information is placed into a single computer database. NEVER sign a non compete. RUN from that situation.

It is so hard to decide who to employ and who to commission. Nail techs are so flaky sometimes and it is very hard as a business owner to operate under extreme uncertainty. So I think I'll stay with commission plus tips because it is way less of a headache. I can't see myself renting because my spa is way too structured for the "extra-ness" of another person doing "the most" and reflect poorly on my spa. So no rentals.

I guess I’m in a better situation than I realized. I recently graduated and I’m on commission. I keep my tips and the owner handles everything. I’m allowed to promote myself separately as well. I also set my own hours. I’m the personality type where it would totally stress me out being responsible for so many things. I’m the only nail tech though so I don’t have any help. It’s a full service spa so part of being on commission is I get to trade services with the estheticians and massage therapist. I’m not getting the volume of clientele that I was told I would (yet) so I’m just trying to hang in there until then 🙏🏻

I love the idea of booth renting but starting off, I think it'd be in my best interest to start off with commission. I would like to build my skills and clientele before I take the dive and be my own boss. It would be nice to also not have to worry about covering the cost of all supplies and rent right of the bat. Once I have clients asking for me often and my books are filled fluently then I can consider the move to booth rent. Also, share a booth with trusted friends may make me change my mind to make the jump.

It’s probably best just to do commission as a new licensed tech. But I think it will be a bit if a hassle trying to take clients from a employment situation to an independent thing. The clientele is coming from like the shop, so in a way would kind of be stealing clientele, but I guess that’s a part of the game.

As an hourly paid nail tech, I’ve grown so much and I’m planning on opening up my own salon suite. What would you guys recommend on how many loyal clients I should have before starting something all on my own? This one question is what’s preventing me from moving forward and continuing my growth. Help! 💕
@youngnailsinc2 жыл бұрын
There's not really a specific number of clients that you "should" have, as that is going to depend on each person's situation. However, here's some things to consider when starting out on your own. If/when you leave your current salon, how many of your clients will follow to the new salon? How many clients do you need to take in a day/week/month to cover your expenses and bring in income? Are you able to support yourself/your business if clients unexpectedly leave or decide not to follow you? What are you doing now to grow your clientele and what are you willing to do if/when you move?

Is it normal for schools to have the students pay for all the supplies they’ll need for the classes and any customers they have to service while in school? (On top of the thousands of dollars for tuition.). In Dallas, TX 98% of the schools wanted the tuition and student pays for all the expenses along the way, additional out of pocket. I was really surprised to hear that from the majority.

@youngnailsinc Жыл бұрын
Booth rental can be a good option if you just want to be responsible for yourself and not worry about other employees. You can come and go when you want, use the products, do the services and charge the prices you want. However, keep in mind that when you rent a space, you are the only one responsible for your business. This includes all the scheduling, accounting/taxes, inventory and ordering supplies, cleaning, etc. You may need to set aside one day (or portion of your week) to do "office" work in addition to taking clients.

Most of the time, booth renting means you supply your products and commission is the salon provides them. You would need to check with the salon owner or who you are renting from on what they are wanting to do.

Does it always have to be commission plus hourly. Cuz my manager who is coming back from Toronto and taking over the business again said if I come back to work with her she would pay me hourly plus tips. I don’t know if that’s enough. I have a second job plus I’m in school so it’s really hard for me to choose what to do. I still wanna do nails but I also like working at my other job part time. What do you recommend. Should I be picky and say I won’t come back unless you give me hourly and commission?
@SarahhhBeth4 жыл бұрын
I personally don’t think hourly would be enough but it would depend on how much per hour they are willing to pay you! You could be doing 6 pedicures a day and making like $8 an hour and going home with less than $50 whereas if you did one pedicure on commission, you could make like $15-$20 for an hour long pedicure!
@TheBeautyBusNYC4 жыл бұрын
It's really whatever the Boss wants. If it is something that doesn't work for you... be honest and don't work there. Nail techs never understand how much goes into running the business. Then when it gets closed down... then the techs are mad and angry. But BILLS have to be paid as well as the techs so it has to be fair on both ends.
