With 3 clients a day at an average of $50 per service you can make more than what you would at a regular job that's paying $15/hr. Its definitely a career. So many people are close minded and dont even understand the tax breaks for been an at home business owner!

@Jammylita 3 года назад

Yes 🙌🏼 Thank you! ❤️

@andreawhisenant2718 3 года назад

Exactly. I make $150 a day with 3 clients. And I have a studio in my home. Once what was my master Bedroom has now become my master income 🙌🏻 a good trade off.

Where do you learn about this stuff? I wanna be a nail tech and my whole family is putting me down and saying I can’t support my two girls as a tech etc.. I’m so stuck on it it’s possible for me

@fuzzyaj5759 2 года назад

@@kiaracaskey349 this is a little late, but i currently am going to a trade school for cosmetology school while going to highschool. if you want to be just a nail tech, don’t go to cosmo school. i’m not dead set in being a nail tech, but i most likely will be one as i do nails on my own now. i’d recommend looking up schools near you that could certify you, which is what i’m in the process of doing. in my state, i can do nails with my cosmo license, but i want to go somewhere that will teach me what actually to do. i don’t learn much about nails, what i’ve learned is all on my own with trial and error

@elysecaster5270 2 года назад

@@kiaracaskey349 don't listen to them, you can bring in a lot of income being a nail tech. My family doubted me as well. Now everyone seems to be proud of me 🙄.

Thanks! And thank you @jammylita’s nails! I am starting school in a few weeks (a two month program and will be heading for the license test!). It took me a while to gain the confidence to actually take that big step for doing nails. I’ve always loved and enjoyed doing nails for fun. I never really looked at it like it can be a career (due to others around me saying it’s not really a career). But as a stay at home mom (not by choice literally had to quit my job because my kids are now remote school due to covid), I came back to this. Now I’m up for it and ready! I’m ready to learn properly and to have a set schedule that won’t budge with my kids learning. I’ve practiced a lot of thanks to your videos as others that I have Subscribed too. Very helpful and I’m very appreciative. I started doing family members nails and they are super shocked at how good I actually am (although I still think there is a lot of improvements that I need to do lol but I am thankful they did my work is good for a beginner!). I’m So passionate about this now and I will make this my career! Just wanted to share this with you beautiful ladies! Love what you do while doing what you love. Enjoy & have a blessed day ❤️

@theposhnailloft686 3 года назад

I was forced into nails fulltime after being laid off. It's been hard. The hardest part was finding a nail home outside my garage. 8 months ago I moved into a private suite in a black female barbershop. It was the best decision ever!! I love this craft/skill/industry!! Ladies you can make good money!!!

This is so true, my mom was not supportive at all. I went against everything she said and I continued to push. Now I graduate on tomorrow (if the school is open due to 😫 snow) or not Tuesday. But she came around and is proud of me. My hubby has been supportive at times (he is the only one working). It's been a challenge and at times I dis want to quit but I kept pushing. Now onto the biggest challenge ever my state board exams. But the big man upstairs is big and will be by my side every step of the way. Ladies/gents keep your head up keep pushing do it because it makes you happy one day they will say "sorry, I doubted you."

Your story really resonated with me. When I was younger (19 - 20 yrs old) I felt that people didn't see a job in becoming a nail tech as a 'real job', family and friends would turn their heads and spoke more about corporate roles... I would mess around with different nail designs, but sadly I gave it up because of peoples opinions. in my mid 20's I struggled with what I wanted to do as a career and by my late 20s I went into marketing which is great but I guess I thought about all the lost time if I had the courage to block out the sound and B line into the nail tech life. Long story short, I've now started a side business creating press-on nails and booked myself onto a nail tech course which will qualify me as a nail technician! (finally!)

I am at the point that point of giving up nails and your words of encouragement is truly what I needed to hear. Lost my job due to the pandemic which pushed me to finally going to nail school but even while in school I am still feeling discouraged. With my savings depleted, a lil one depending on me plus no way of even covering the cost for my nail supplies I really feel like giving up. I really love nails and want this as my career but with no one to encourage you, no materials and no help at all it does take a toll on you. I'm grateful for your words and say I'll continue this journey irregardless off the odds against me. My favorite color is purple so the set is lit.

Hey, Jammy! Very unique Valentine set in such a sweet color. I just love watching your artistry! Also your advice about pursuing your dreams is well taken and spot on! Looking back on a career that I loved, I feel as if I never "worked" a day in my life because I so loved what I was doing. Everyone who desires to achieve a career as a nail tech or as anything else should follow that dream to find fulfillment. It may take a while or require extra effort or training, but it is so worth it!! I second your inspiring words of wisdom for life and for nails. I am sure that your wisdom is just what some folks need to hear!! ❤️❤️🙏🏼

Omg thank you so much I did need this because my mom told me that doing nails I won’t get much money but u don’t know that really because it just depends on how u do nails and how good u are at nails that depends on how much money u get for nails that’s what depends now idc what anyone says ok girl if I want to do nails and I believe in myself I’m going to do it even I’m not a professional at doing nails it don’t mean I have to give up now I’m a beginner so I’m not the best yea I’m not but it don’t mean that it will stay that way no my work is going to get better and better u know what I mean honestly that feels so good to say honestly.

@erikacornejo925 3 года назад

I started following you about two weeks ago and this video just popped up and I’m so glad I clicked on it 💛 I’ve been questioning my nail journey. Some weeks are good with clients and other week I don’t have anyone come in. 💛 and i get super discouraged seeing other people’s work in my area that are also beginners and their work is beautiful and i look at mine and question what I’m doing?? 😭 this helped a lot 😭😭

@Jammylita 3 года назад

First, thank you ❤️ Don’t let that discourage you and don’t compare your work. Just do what you do best. It won’t be easy at times and there will be ups and downs just like any career but doing what you love is the beauty in this industry. You got this ❤️

@Melissanailzcliques 3 года назад

I agree 100%! My passion has always been nails since I was in hs in the 90s. I worked in a salon for 10 yrs and listened to family members telling me it's not a "real job" even tho I was making great money. Even back then. Nothing like the prices charged now! I ended up going to college, stopping nails and trying to get into my new field...stuck in a receptionist job miserable. I have my masters in business (kept up my nail license too) I had to have surgery on both wrists due to carpal tunnel in both wrists (due to doing nails and computer work) now that I'm healed I'd love to get back into being a nail tech full time again. In the end my point is, follow your dream, your gut, don't listen to others. Now I have a huge college loan to pay off and not even able to use it. My dream is to own my own space like you mentioned too, and be my own boss. 💖😘💖😘🥰🥰🥰 tfs great video!

I love ur motivational speech I'm not a nail tech but I love getting my nails done and I admire the people that do nails 🤣, but there's also nail tech that don't take there job r business serious so how am I r anyone else suppose to take them seriously ,no matter what job r career u have you'll always have r get disgusting customers but if wat ur doing is ur passion take one day at a time breathe slowly and keep moving forward .I myself wish to start doing nails one day like I said it's something I've always loved and admire and watching these vids on youtube lately have only encourage me more to do so , So a big thank you u my dear.

@journeywithyas 3 года назад

thank you for the advice❤️...its important to surround yourself with ppl who are supportive cause getting rid of self doubt can be really hard and always comes and goes for me. I started my journey a few months ago and Im struggling on figuring out a location cause I have a large family and taking clients at home feels too invasive almost :/ but im trying to stay positive and focusing on practicing. Its not an easy journey but like you said no career really is and the truth is nothing worth having comes easy. I know it'll be so rewarding and could possibly open other doors for me too, after all what is life if you're not doing something you love right🤗

Wow thank you for talking about thisss 🥺 I’ve always loved nails but lately I’ve felt like I shouldn’t continue pursuing this as a career. Some part of me feels like I’ve started too late (I’m 26 now), & that I need to get back into a 9-5 quick before it’s too late. But your video & reading everyone’s comments really reminded me that this isn’t just a job it’s something I love that also comes with financial success! 💕 good luck to us all with our careers ✨

Hey girl , love ur set so simple yet beautiful and yes I agree with you ...so many people do say that or they think it’s just a side thing? But I’m like ummm no it’s a job , cause girl getting a hang of not flooding the cuticle and shaping and art it is not easy at all ... when I started last year in feb it was to get off my mind of my grandma passing away and soon I was like I don’t love my job but I do love nails and like u said had no idea how to start . I ended up running into ur videos and with all ur help and encouragement I started and continued ,even last year started Cosmo school in November and now about to be done I believe 3rd week of March ... so yes it is dedication and time but u can only get better with time !!!! So thanks jammy even though i have never met u personally because ur in Florida and my butt is all the way in California I have learned so much from you and I am truly grateful and appreciative for teaching us on RU-vid. U make a difference thanks chica!!! Keep on ur positive videos:)😊💕💕💕

I think that being a nail tech is a real career if you’re really up to date with styles, continue practicing after graduating, and starting a social media to gain more clients. There are many nail techs out there that can only do the basics so you really want to higher your standards if you want to work for celebrities or just have more clients. Being creative and executing styles or an image someone gives you to create on site is mandatory

@Jammylita 3 года назад

That’s true ❤️ There is also clientele for specific nail artists too. You can have your own style and still have clients that like that specific look. Social media helps with advertising yourself and your style. So many different techs to choose from. There is so much diversity in this industry! That’s why it’s so amazing 🙌🏼❤️
