First monthly art challenge ๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ
Okay, it sounds like a lot of people are keen to do the nail art challenge! The rules are that there aren't really any ๐Ÿ˜†. This is just a fun way to play around and explore things we might not have otherwise. You can create one nail, a full set - on swatches, press-ons, real hands, all up to you! Here is the inspo pic for the first month; the next pic will be uploaded on 5 Septemeber. Drop your creations in the comments โฌ‡๏ธ

Beginner's Bootcamp!
Hey everyone! I've made the final decision to go ahead with dedicating the entire month of November to a Beginner's Bootcamp! ๐Ÿฅณ Two live calls a day, every weekday, so wherever you are in the world, there's a time that hopefully works for you. Plus I'll be in here every single day cheering you on, answering questions, and looking at your practice pics. It's four weeks, fully mapped out, taking you from "I have no idea what I'm doing" to actually being confident. ๐Ÿ‘‡ ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Week 1 - Foundation & theory (nail health, product safety, the stuff nobody explains properly) ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Week 2 - Prep (because good prep is invisible and bad prep is impossible to hide) ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Week 3 - Application (gel, builder gel, acrylic basics - real hands-on skill) ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Week 4 - Business basics (because "I can do nails" and "I can run a business" are two very different things) No nail art in this one, you've already got plenty of that in here. This month is 100% about the foundations everyone skips and then wonders why things go wrong later. I've attached the full curriculum below so you can see exactly what each day covers before we kick off. Have a read, get excited, and drop a ๐Ÿ™‹ in the comments if November is your month. I want to know who's in before we even start. ๐Ÿ’›

@Cat Tortorice Can't wait!
Do you run Meta Ads for your salon?
Just a quick show of hands, is this a topic you'd want us to talk about more? Do you use Meta Ads to promote your salon?

@Laura Roberts definitely! And I think you're also quite lucky with your client base being a bit of an older crowd; I don't think they're using AI as much ๐Ÿ˜†

@Chloe Payne I do agree that with the way social media has changed, you should be able to achieve similar results without having to pay. A brand new account can be created on TikTok today and, with the right content formula, hit millions of views within 24 hours, regardless of following. (That's why I say following culture is dead). However, since reading this book I'm reading, I do see the benefit of giving the videos that do move the needle a bit of a boost every now and then to keep it moving the needle. But to be fair, I am also looking at it from a "scale massively" perspective, which isn't what we need as self-employed nail techs just trying to have a consistent income ๐Ÿ˜‚. So I'm working on that.

@Celine Hays Aw nooo, I'm sorry! (excited to see your nail comp entries when the comp is here though ๐Ÿคฉ)
๐Ÿ’˜ Nail Tech Matchmaker
I'm matchmaking people today. Tell us what you're currently working on or trying to improve: "I'm learning nail art and need inspiration." "I'm trying to raise my prices." "I'm struggling with retention." "I'm obsessed with Japanese-style nails." Then find someone in the comments with the same goal and introduce yourselves. You might find your new nail-tech bestie in here. ๐ŸŒป
