You have dues to pay and a clientele to build. Do you have what it takes to make it? Most do not.
Most new techs are arrogant and think that they will be successful right out of the gate. They think this is EASY. They quickly find out that it is not.
They are lazy. They are sloppy. They don’t pay attention to detail. Guess what? No one wants to come back to them.
They don’t want to put in the extra effort. They don’t practice. Hell, most of them don’t even shape the nail. So many of then CAN’T POLISH A NAIL. I mean really???? Polishing a nail is the basic staple of manicuring. If you can’t polish a freaking nail – YOU FAIL!
These newbies show up to work ten minutes before they are to start. They run out of the door ten minutes after they finish their last client. During down times, they don’t line up warm bodies to practice on.
They ignore the fact that people, who rebooked at their last appointment are now cancelling. They ignore the fact that when these people do return, they are booked with other technicians. They ignore the fact that they did a piss poor job the first time and the client obviously asked to be booked with someone else.
So many new Nail Techs fail because they don’t want to put the effort into being successful. If success was that easy, we would ALL be successful. Since this is not the case, those who are willing to pay their dues and put in their time are successes. The lazy ones are not and leave the industry. Which one are you?

Love this... so true
I was having this conversation with a new cosmetologist just today!! I am so tired of the "Build it and they will come" attitude. So many newbie's think that just because they have that piece of paper and they move into a salon they should just be able to sit back and watch the walk in's come flocking to them. They get mad when this doesn't happen. Makes me crazy!!
