Why Business Skills Matter for Nail Technicians

Written By Kirsty Brown

Most nail courses teach you how to do nails — but not how to run a nail business.

That’s where many nail technicians struggle. Pricing feels uncomfortable, policies are unclear, and admin takes over creative time. Over time, this can lead to burnout, under-charging, or feeling stuck despite being fully booked.

Strong business foundations are what allow nail techs to earn well, work sustainably, and feel confident in their decisions.

A Practical Business Guide Made for Nail Techs

Brush Up on Your Business Skills: A Guide for Nail Technicians was created to fill the gap that most training leaves behind.

This downloadable ebook focuses on the real business side of nails, explained clearly and without jargon. It covers:

  • Setting up and registering your nail business

  • Pricing services with confidence

  • Creating clear policies and boundaries

  • Managing clients professionally

  • Staying organised with simple systems and templates

It’s written specifically for nail technicians, not generic small businesses, so everything is relevant to salon, home-based, and self-employed nail work.

Who This Ebook Is For

This guide is ideal if you are:

  • Newly qualified and starting out

  • Self-employed and feeling unsure about pricing or policies

  • A nail tech who wants to feel more confident and in control of their business

If you want your nail business to feel professional, sustainable, and properly structured, this resource gives you a solid starting point.

Inside, you’ll find practical tools you can actually use, including:

  • Consultation and policy templates

  • Pricing and planning guidance

  • Clear explanations of common business mistakes nail techs make

  • Advice based on real salon and education experience

Everything is designed to help you work smarter, not harder.
