Anyone use a service to book your clients online? I’ve always used the old school way with a calendar and a pencil. I constantly had clients calling daily, all hours. I joined an online booking service and I really like it. Clients can go to my website and book. It sends them a confirmation and reminder. This is my first month doing this. So far it’s been really helpful. I probably should’ve done this a long time ago. Anyone else making this change?

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm starting a little Question of the Week series over on my Oasis page, and I'd love to bring it into this community too. With so many people here who are new to the industry (or even experienced techs wanting a refresher), I'd love to know: what questions are you dying to have answered? I absolutely love nail health and safety, and lately I've been doing a deep dive into nail anatomy, so I'd especially love questions around things like: • Consultations • Nail anatomy • Nail health & safety • Natural nail care • Client education • Or honestly, anything you're unsure about! I'll be answering these over the coming months both on my business page and here in the community, with the possibility of open discussions here. No question is too basic—if you've been wondering about something, chances are someone else has too. Pop your questions below! 💚

Hi everyone! Just thinking about the community and making it a bit easier to be in. If you wouldn't mind - please consider adding your material of choice to your bio. Eg: Acrylic tech, or Builder Gel tech (even if you're still just a beginner). This will help those answering you to quickly hover over your profile and see what type of products you might be referring to when looking for suggestions and/or advice 🫶

What product have yall found that works best to keep full coverage tips on? Some clients want the full coverage tips with no acrylic overlay

So many of us think the way to get more clients is to drop our prices. Match the salon down the road. Undercut the new tech on Facebook Marketplace. I get why. It feels logical. But the reality is that the client chasing the cheapest price was never going to be your best client anyway. She'll leave the second someone's $5 cheaper. The client who books because she trusts you, feels comfortable with you, and knows you actually care about her nail health will stay. Will rebook. Will tell her friends. So instead of "how do I compete on price"... try asking "how do I become the obvious choice." That might mean better photos. A better DM reply. A follow-up message after her appointment. Little things that say "I actually give a toot about you," not just your service list. Price isn't the problem. Trust is the answer. 💛
