Blueprint of a First Year

Spring Into Actions

by NAILS Magazine | March 17, 2011 | Bookmark +

So Spring is slowly appearing all around me, and the funny thing is I can see it at the salon too. I am still the only nail tech, so I have to plan appointments accordingly. This week has been busy, pedicures and manicures have been my top request, which is great because I love doing both. It seems everything was slow, then one warm day sparked the clients to free their hands and feet. I am enjoying the process.
 
I attended the Bronner Brothers Hair Show in Atlanta. The show was geared more towards hairstylists but I enjoyed myself. The show offered manicure and pedicure classes. I bought a CHInail display for the salon. I definitely recommend the show to hairstylists. For nail techs, if you are looking for equipment, networking, or industry connections I advise you to stop by the show. The show is offered in February and August.

Can you believe it has already been six months that I have been posting on the blog? Where in the world has the time gone? As a salon owner I have learned so much in this time. As a gift to myself I bought a new apron with my salon name on it, as a small token of my hard work the last six months.
