100$ fill. Worth it?

Being in the beauty industry, I am CONSTANTLY seeing people saying what is or isn’t worth it. For me, my nails are a luxury service and I think it’s worth every penny.

... Read moreIn the beauty industry, the worth of services often sparks debate among enthusiasts and professionals alike. Many individuals question the cost of luxury treatments, such as a $100 nail fill. Let's explore some factors contributing to this investment. Firstly, a quality gel or acrylic manicure can enhance the aesthetics of your hands, providing a polished look that lasts for weeks. Furthermore, skilled nail technicians use high-quality products that minimize damage to your natural nails, ensuring long-term health and care. Additionally, regular nail maintenance can catch potential nail issues early on. Professional technicians are trained to spot weaknesses or infections that may go unnoticed. The experience of pampering also adds value - the relaxation and self-care involved in the process can enhance your overall well-being. Also, regular visits can build a rapport with your nail technician, allowing them to better understand your preferences and personalize your experience. Ultimately, the decision to invest $100 in a nail fill hinges on personal values, appreciation for beauty services, and the desire for both aesthetics and self-care.

As a baby nail tech I couldn’t imagine charging 100 for a fill and you have to put polish on the nails anyway so if your NT is charging 100 just a fill those things better be as tough as cement
