2. More and more nail techs are figuring out that fifty percent
of twenty dollars now-a-days is not footing the bill in this
hard economic time that were living in today.
That basic manicure is just too basic as more and more
clients are going natural and staying away from the harsh
chemicals such as acrylic and/or gel nails.
Nail Techs are returning to class to learn waxing techniques
and skin care.
3. Pumping out more than an hundred bucks within a hour: for a full brazil bikini
wax, designed eyebrow shaping, eyelash tinting, and a mani and pedi to boot!
NailEsthetician books are full and they are spending more time with a client
which is likely to result in a returned client. You can now find help wanted ads
asking that Nail Techs must also do waxing or that Aestheticians know how to
do mani's and pedi's. Aniko Salon in Chicago have jumped on board by hiring
Aeshetician's that is also a licensed Nail Tech. More and more Salons/spas are
now providing the full package from only one tech and it is the ultimate
experience for clients to see only one tech which in-turn allows for a bigger tip
for the 'one' tech.
4. Aestheticians are: skin care specialist; not dermatologist or nail
techs; they must return to school to get their Nail Tech License
and vice versa for Nail Techs if they wish to do skin care. You do
not want a Nail Tech cutting your hair if they are only licensed
to do nails. Here in Illinois a License Cosmetologist can do
skin/nails and/or hair provided that she continues her
education or experience beyond school.
5. Skin care is where the beauty industry is seriously headed as
more and more baby boomers and women in general pay more
attention to their skin. More and more Aestheticians are
working close with dermatologist to also increase their income
and Medical Manicurist are popping up slowly but surely.
