According to a survey conducted by market research firm Harris Interactive, many women prefer to leave their nails to the professionals despite an increased emphasis on DIY (do-it-yourself) beauty.

Of the women surveyed, 91% feel better about themselves after visiting the salon — eight out of ten women agree they get better results at the salon than when they perform their own service. And 74% of those women value the relationship they have with their salon professional. Since it appears the salon industry is staying firmly put, it's important for nail techs to become experts clients can turn to for nail care or product knowledge and advice.
