Okay so she is fully aware that she is taking you for granted then it sounds like to me if she was fully aware of your cc sign and when she pulled out the cc to charge, and she asked you "What do I owe you" you should be replying "$40 for a Full Set" because you are the service provider and not her servant and you did exactly that a Full Set! 6 repairs my BUTT more then 2 nails that need repairing is a Full Set.
I completely understand that you are working from home it sounds to me like you have a little salon within your home too from what you have expressed with a pedicure area and a nail desk so this is a business not just your home...Your Worth is Weight in Gold! As you clearly stated you are an educated business person that just so happens to be providing a service so get your money girl...That client has her money in her pocket and you want it in YOURS!!!

I only charged her 25 for the fill and none for the repairs, she says she will be back sooner for a fill because of Christmas. so she did see the new sign and that i take cc now and she pulled it out a cc. so I know she saw the new price list! I posted a new price list in 2 spots one by mani table and the wall by pedi station. My 3 week + fills are now 30 + depending on repairs. and 4 week + is 37 and my fs are 40 New Year is right I am a professional and receive continuing education to keep on top of things. Thank you for all the great advice I am going to put this all into work and I am looking into doing the minx next year :) Kelley On Dec 7, 10:17 am, Angela R Wingerter <awinger...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > Even though you work out of your home doesn't mean it doesn't cost you to work. > Besides the basic electricity and water, What about the remodeling that you have > to do, which is more expensive then just renting a booth somewhere.
