Sheila, I have to listen to Diana. It's tough being a salon owner. It is also hard to let that go. I have been working totally on my own for the last ten years and, I don't answer to anyone. I make my own hours and prices. The best part about this is, my clients like it that way.
Find your little niche somewhere and go booth rent or however you choose. Don't look back. Just enjoy yourself and keep on filing.

I felt like I was a failure and a loser. It was horrible. Went thru deep depression. It was like going thru a divorce or death. The same thing, Had 10-12 nail techs stay with me for years, and as time went on they left. But never could get those spots filled with techs with work ethics. But someone told me, Diana, The public still wants to come to your salon. They love your salon, It's not your fault that things have changed and people don't want to work anylonger. Don't get me wrong, I miss it soo much. But I've never been happier. I don't have to worry about the bills, I don't have to worry about the tech who got into a fight with her BF and didn't wanna come in. Doing the Happy Dance Sheila. You put your blood sweat and tears in your place. Be proud of it!! You are not a failure, you have no control of other peoples lives as they move on. Employees move on, it is time for you to move on also. hug diana from indiana Quoting Sheila DeLorenzo <serenityspringssa...@yahoo.com>: > I am in a big dilema friends...
