I’m a licensed nail tech in Pennsylvania and want to do nails and craft things at home as a hobby/side hustle- not a salon. Do I still need to apply for a salon license through the state board of cosmetology? I’m in the process of getting a permit for home occupation from my local zoning and i plan on getting a llc
Thank you soo much you saved me so much time ❤ I thought that something is wrong with my lamp 😅 Today I did my nails home for the first time and I had no clue about this last step
I'm a prospective client looking for a certain look that I can't seem to get when I go to a nail salon. So often there's so much trickery, racism, back stabbing, and dishonesty happening at nail salons. I would LOVE to go get my nails done at a home of someone who acts professional, the being professional is key for me it's not very often that people are. You get nasty attitudes, rudeness, only being nice to you if they think you have money, only being nice to white people in the salon... I could go on but you get it. I would love to have the service and not have to listen to other client's screaming kids or nail artists shouting across the room in another language making me feel uncomfortable. Women are looking for a professional spa like environment. As long as I could get the look I wanted and it'a clean nice environment with no screaming kids, the tech could do it outside for all I care.
So if you have a cosmologist license than you can still booth rent, it’s what I’m getting at by watching the video. If you just went to school to be a manicure you can no longer booth rent but will either become a regular employee or rent a suite? But if you have a cosmology license than you can still both rent?
Hi! I want to start doing my own gel nails, I’ve done them twice before so far. I was just wondering what should I do if I do flood my cuticles with gel and get it on the sides of my finger? Do I wipe it off with acetone? Or would you recommend using a thin nail art type of brush to spread the gel to the sides of the nail instead after just putting gel nearer to the middle of the nail which might be tedious but I’m really worried about an allergy? Also I leave a long time in between like at least two months (I don’t have much time I’m at school), so if I were to occasionally get gel on the skin and wipe it away would chances of an allergy be low as you mentioned going nails every two weeks. Thanks for the video <3
Does this apply to salon suites? I don’t know what the difference is with booth rent in an established salon vs private suites. Im halfway through school to get my manicurist license and this feels like its going to be a major diversion from my upcoming plan 😭
I want to say that somewhere in the middle of the video Jaime explains this. It does not apply to salon suite owners, but if you wanted to rent your studio/sub-lease then things can get technical. Worth a listen.
I am not sure what product is on my real nail... acrylic overlay? I would like to transition to doing my own gel at home on just my real nail without the overlay. I usually go 2-3 weeks for a fill and color change. Can I use a Dremel to remove the gel and the overlay product? Thanks!
I always appreciate your advice and videos, thank you 🌸 I am now using Korean Gels, but need HEMA free. My main go to currently is DGel but would love to know what else others to recommend within the Korean brands x
And I appreciate the comments, thank you! Zillabeau just launched their own gel line, "Gel Monsta" which is made in Korea and should be hema-free, but I have not tested it. There are hema-free options within Japanese gels too.
This is so discrimanatory. I've worked as an independent contractor and licensed manicurist for over 40 years! I've written and submitted my letters to those you've suggested. Fingers crossed. I'm not ready to retire.....yet!
Hi Paola, I was wondering if Vetro base max is a good base for longer extensions or is Fuji original/ex better for that? Thanks for all your informative videos!
