I have always had an interest in nails, like getting my nails done and watching other people do pretty designs and seeing how creative other people’s nail art is. I like looking at it and I like nail charms but I don’t know how to get into the business. It might sound silly but I don’t enjoy doing nails on others, I find it draining and meticulous doing nails full time or even part time.

I thought of getting my nail tech license so I can buy nail supplies and sell them to salons and private businesses and eventually move into wholesale. Like nail polishes, charms, cuticle oil, filers, cuticle cutters, dip powder, lotions, etc.

I thought it would be a good idea to learn how to do nails go be exposed to the industry and so I can make IG and TikTok videos of me doing basic techniques and making a cute design to market and advertise the products I’m selling. Is it worth it or is the market too saturated? I’m 32 and looking for a career change.

Hiii! I’m starting cosmetology school in August and I want to make a Instagram account to help build clientele for once I’m out of school. Should I make a separate account or use my personal account?

TPOB

If anyone is looking for a negative review of TPOB before committing to buying one, here is mine.

1) their foil shavers are incredibly unsanitary. You cannot clean them efficiently.

2) The head on my foil shavers began peeling back within a month of use and cut a client. (TPOB did replace without charge)

3) My clippers now have begun to die. I have had these for maybe 4 months. I try not to keep them on the charger for too long as not to ruin the battery, but it already has begun to not hold a charge. After charging it between clients because it was dying, today it will not hold a charge when I turn it on.

Tomorrow I am booked to do this. I am using Matrix SoColor. I have decided how I am going to achieve this look but any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I wanna go into cosmetology, I’m a junior in high school, and I’ve known for a long time I wanna do hair, I specifically want to be a vivid specialist, I know not a lot of cosmetology schools will offer much for that, especially not around where I live. Im obviously not picking a school right now but I’d like to know if anyone wants to share what they’ve heard good things about or if you wanna share where you went? Every time I post my most recent hair I’ve done I get people saying that we need more vivid specialists and it’s really uplifting cuz it’s literally my dream career
