Struggling to get more nail clients? Or noticing gaps in your appointment book?

In this episode, we break down exactly how nail techs can attract new clients, keep them rebooking, and stop them from going elsewhere.

This conversation is especially helpful if you're:

• A beginner nail tech trying to build your first client base

• A nail tech returning after time off or a quiet period

• Experiencing new gaps in your diary and want to actively attract clients again

We talk about:
• How to actually attract new clients locally
• Why some clients don’t rebook (and how to fix it)
• Simple ways to keep clients loyal to you
• Small mistakes that might be pushing clients away

Plus, my guest Tanya shares one of the BEST local advertising tips I’ve ever heard for nail techs, and it's something most people completely overlook when promoting their business.

If you want a to attract new clients to your beauty business to build up a full, busy diary, this episode will give you practical ideas you can start using straight away.

In this episode of Nails & Yap, I’m joined by Lizzie (one of my clients and also a fellow podcaster over at Tiny Talks) for a chat about nail appointments from the client perspective.

Lizzie is actually my first guest who isn’t in the beauty industry, so we thought it would be interesting to talk about what clients really think about their appointments and get an unfiltered, honest perspective.

We get into:

• What makes a nail appointment feel comfortable and enjoyable

• The atmosphere clients love

• The relationship between nail tech and client

• Things that can make or break the experience

• A few honest client bug bears 👀

It was such a good conversation and definitely one I think nail techs will find interesting - so I hope it's really valuable for you & your business!

Welcome to part 2 of my nail art chat with Izzy at Orphic Nails! This time we get into the pressure behind nail art - from ourselves, clients and social media.

We talk about how social media has changed nail art expectations, the unrealistic speed standards nail techs face, and how constantly creating content can lead to burnout.

We also cover:– Scheduling posts to avoid overwhelming yourself– Navigating neurodivergence as a creative nail tech– Learning how to say no to clients and their crazy requests (real life goldfish anyone?!)– Protecting your energy while still delivering detailed nail art

If you love nail art but sometimes feel the pressure that comes with it, this episode is for you.
