What do I need to get started as a nail technician?

[Kross]

The services of nail technicians are getting popular by the day and so many people are finding value in patronizing such services.

Supposing I want to start such a business, what are the basic equipment that I would need to get started? Must I own a shp to start the business?

The equipment to get started as a nail technician is not something big. You would need to get a nail clipper, file and trimmer. If you have a cuticle oil to the above, you can get started.

If I had a daughter with those thoughts, I would enroll her in a beauty school so she could learn to do it right. Then the next step would be to hire her to do mine and my wife's nails and show then to our friends and put some photo's on Facebook to solicit more clients.

For me, I believe that you don't need a shop to start this kind of business. You could make use of the online platform and offer home service. It is more flexible and cost-effective. But if you really want to have a shop, that's still a great idea, especially if you want a dedicated space for your clients. For equipment, you would typically need a UV or LED lamp for gel nails, a variety of nail polishes, cuticle pushers and nippers, manicure and pedicure tools, sanitation supplies, and a comfortable chair and table.
