How do I speed up my services? I don’t want to hurt people by filing fast and some women can’t work with you during nail services.

Answer

To speed up your services you should first develop a routine. Put a clock near your work area where you can see it. Personally challenge yourself to finish each step of your procedures in a certain time period. This will take time to accomplish, so don’t get discouraged. Having everything you need and being prepared is crucial for speeding up your service. For the clients who tend to be tense and are hard to work with, you may want to start with a quick hand massage, just to get them relaxed. The atmosphere you create in your salon and the mood you project will allow these tense clients to feel more comfortable. You shouldn’t have to file faster to speed up your services, you just need to be organized and focused on timing. -- Patricia Yankee Williams

How can I prevent lifting when my client's hands are constantly in water?

I have a client who is in the medical field so her hands are constantly in water. She has me keep the length of her acrylic nails short. No matter what I do, she always has at least one nail that comes off, and she always has lifting and gets water under the acrylic. I prep the nails correctly, I have a cuticle bit to clean the cuticle area, and I wipe the nail with alcohol, dehydrate the nail, and prime the nail. What should I do?
