Hi Lisa! 
I don't see why you couldn't charge at least what you were making at the salon 
before... Don't worry about NSS as they are not your competition, and if you 
think you want your nails to be more later on, just set your prices higher now 
and run specials until you get full. So, I guess you need to be more concerned 
with what special prices to run... LOL...
And retail anything you use that your client cannot just go get somewhere else. 
I retail every lotion, scrub, oil, nail coatings and treatments, foot files, 
nail brushes... if you want them to have it to use at home- sell it! You don't 
have to start out stocking everything at once, that can be a lot of cash, just 
pick a few items every time you go to the beauty supply as you build it up...

Hi everyone,
    I was wondering what you guys thought a good starting price to charge for 
acrylics would be for me?  I have only a year experience and will be ready to 
offically open my home nail studio next month.  The NSS shops around me are 
charging $25 for a full set.  (Not sure of the fill price.)  The shop I used to 
work for was $45 full set, $50 pink and white, $27 for fill and $33 for 
rebalance french.  Also, what kinds of retail items are you guys selling 
besides polish, top and base coats?

Much appreciation,
