@NailsbyNicole 2h @OmariMyWorld 5h When opening a new salon, should you have more than two types of mani and pedi services or keep it simple? Do you have just a nail tech license or did you go through the cosmetology route? @ MmmKandiYamz @MmmKandiYamz People like options, I think you should have more than one for sure…at most 3-4 @susiemichelle_ 3h What gel brand do you like working with best? @MmmKandiYamz Bio Sculpture I only did the manicuring route, though some places don't ofer just that service. @itsmeevanet 5h I post all my artwork on Instagram with as many hashtags as I can, but it seems like it isn't working. What are good hashtags? @MmmKandiYamz All of those hashtags are popular, which is why people don't get to see it. They're always getting filtered by new ones. Try making hashtags you would want to search. It's better if your hashtags are specific. @itsmeevanet 6h What's the secret to getting your gems to stay on? @MmmKandiYamz I use an of-brand gel/glue but I don't seal my nails in gel, it takes away the shine. Banks uses her computer to create this simple background that has marketed her nail art business all over Instagram.

Pull out only what you need for each service. I wish; that would save me so much time! @ nailz_r_mylife Which brings me to my next question, about how long does it take you to do a full set with designs? @MmmKandiYamz I take my time, but not too much time. An hour and a half to two hours if it's all nails. @OhCaryn 4h What is your one piece of advice for anyone that is interested in pursuing the nail business? Be diferent. The way to stand out is to not follow what everyone else is doing. NAILS MAGAZINE | 6h I would like some tips on salon set-up and layout for a small studio. @MmmKandiYamz Cute but minimal furniture. @Samads_Wife 7h What is your most lucrative service? @MmmKandiYamz @MmmKandiYamz 134 | @NaileFX JANUARY 2014 I think it's acrylic. My full sets make me the most money. Then again, I am a really good persuader. >>>
