Manicure philosophy - страница 3

Furthermore: anyone can become a person providing manicure, pedicure services and etc., but only the chosen ones become masters of their work. How to become a true master, who will be admired, respected and appreciated? Read on.

If you want to be a professional in your field – then this philosophy is meant exactly for you. Read everything related to your profession, go to seminars and not just attend it to get a piece of paper that is called a diploma, but listen closely. Yes, when you attend countless seminars, you begin to notice that information is repetitive, you just sit there and think – I know this, I know that, and then bam – just one sentence, a trifle, and your world turns upside down. For example, in the courses I attended, they talked about the cuticle on the nail, that it should be pushed back, but they never told us why and what for. It turns out that the cuticle grows to the nail plate and slows down its growth. Just one sentence, but everything immediately became clear.

Listen and ask questions. If you hesitate to ask them when there are other people all around you, you can always go to the moderator after the seminar and ask the questions that are important to you. There is no such thing as too much information. It may sound smug, but remember, who owns the information – owns the world. In our case – the world of nail service. Moreover, there is no limit to perfection.

Just for example. Once a beginner asked me for a lesson she wanted to see everything with her own eyes and during the procedure and explanation to her, I also communicated with my client. The student at this time was absorbed in her smartphone, and before each next step I had to pull her out of there in order to explain some technical issues. In the meantime, she missed one of the most interesting topics – communication between a master and a client. If you came to get some knowledge, you are to absorb each and every bit of it like a sponge, every tiny detail because you never know when all of a sudden it will come in handy.

Read, check for accuracy, verify, share your knowledge with others, work to be the leader. About ten years ago, in the market of nail service, a new product appeared – gel nail polish. Masters-manicurists took it rather reluctantly, as they had to learn a lot. Six months later, in one of the popular newspapers, I came across an article that the procedure of painting gel nail polish or rather the use of lamps designed for drying polish, causes skin cancer. A woman is an amazing creature, who has her own logic, she will be petrified of some kind of beauty procedures, but she will still have them, since the wish to be beautiful is stronger than the fear. Recall the old days when women whitened their faces with powder with lead, poisoned themselves, but continued to do so. I realized that nothing will stop clients in their desire to look well, but they will start asking questions, so I went to Google for answers. I read everything – researches, scientific works, medical indications, I looked at the statistics of diseases available for the last twenty years that nail lamps have been available on the market, I read the characteristics of ultraviolet lamps. Funnily enough, I have just managed to relay everything that I learned, acquired and accumulated in just several sentences. When a client came to me concerned about this issue I was able to explain everything in a normal language and she was satisfied, soothed and boldly took advantage of the desired procedure.
