mobile

I am in the process of setting up a mobile beauty business after having a break to have my babies (I previously worked in a salon for 8 years.) I am wondering how I go about stating I only treat female clients without offending anyone? Can I even legally do this? When I worked in a salon I dealt...

Hi everyone!.. good evening! I am booked on a nail training course in Sept and Oct and will be looking to go mobile.. can anyone give me any ideas on how’s best to get the materials around? I’m looking at the trolleys on wheels etc. And that’s probably the best way to go- But what do you do...

I'm a mobile LVL Lash Lift Technician (nouveau trained) and really want to add on more services. Can you recommend any other treatments that I can provide either as an add on, or as an alternative? Because I'm mobile it would have to be something with not too much equipment especially as i...

I've been doing acyrlic nails now for about a year and I would like to advertise on facebook and other places just to make a bit of extra money although I dont have any nail qualifications. I know you need them to work in a salon(I think anyway) but what about mobile? I dont want to do anything...

Hi guys, Finding myself in a bit of a pickle. I’ve been lightening my client up to a base 10 and now post lockdown she’s decided she wants to be back to roughly a base 7. She’s said she’s going to leave it to me to decide the outcome she just wants to be darker but not darker than a 6. I use...

Hello everyone :) I was considering going mobile. I enjoy waxing a lot but have a 6 year old and I wanted to try mobile mainly for the flexibility! My current mobile waxers ... how do you try to pack lightly? how is your set up? do you use a message bed? I saw a youtube video where the girl...

Hi everyone - thank you for looking at my post. Due to the current climate I have had to leave a room in a salon I was renting and go mobile when I am able to. I have never been mobile before and the thought of setting up and down after each treatment is stressing me out. I do facials and...

Hello - I am looking for a change in career. I have always been interested in Beauty! I am from Birmingham and moving to Loughton, London for a university course. I was hoping to spend these last couple months training in Beauty. This would be natural nails + gels / holistic facials. Can I ask...

So I have just done a hair extension course which now I can offer 7 methods, but due to having no photos, how do I go about starting to gain clients. I was in beauty for over 10 years then I went and done a business degree for three years but due to an assault last year I had to have a break...

I’m a mobile hairdresser and have been for 10 years, I’m considering finally setting up a base somewhere that’s not in my home, but don’t want to rent a chair in someone’s salon either. I’m thinking of doing what a lot of beauty therapists do, rent a ‘treatment room’ style mini hair studio with...

Hello everyone, this is my first post and I would really appreciate some friendly, professional advice... So I'm a L2&3 NVQ qualified beauty therapist and have been running my own mobile business for almost 2 years now after working 2 years in the salon (employed). I am doing extremely well, a...

Hey everyone! I’m quite new here and also new to the business aspect of things. I’m currently transitioning into aesthetics as a registered nurse and I have a few courses lined up (dermaplaning and microdermabrasion). I plan to do mobile services for my clients and I’m based in Kent but not to...

I’m a 34 yr old mobile hairstylist and have been for 8 years, having worked in salons for 8 years prior to that. I have managed to build a very successful business and it currently works well in my life. However, I can’t see myself doing it forever and it’s very physically tiring, lugging all...

I have been a mobile therapist for nearly a year now, and it has done me good building up my client base, but it’s so difficult and time consuming to drive to 6 different peoples houses a day and carry all my equipment in a tiny car! I was wondering if it would be easier for me to be home base...

Is anyone a mobile microblading artist? Or has anyone heard of anyone that does it? I have seen some artists on Instagram who cover different areas. Sure they are mobile? How do you go about the council registrations? etc.

So whilst I am a lash technician, a mobile beautician friend of mine has recently done a blow drying course and is offering them now, but she has no hairdressing qualifications besides this. Would people go to someone for just a blow dry with no other hair experience?

Hello I just got contact from K.P brow who said that I'd have to be in a shop or rent a room to do microblading and I wouldn't be able to do this mobile? Is this correct or is this something they maybe have to suggest for their own public liability... Thanks

Hi all, I'm going to be doing a complete make up training course this week with The Beauty Academy and I was wondering if anyone knew what would be a good rate to charge clients after I've completed? I know some people do discounted rates so that they can build up a portfolio, is this a good...

I became qualified to do eyelashes about five months ago, and since then, I've been trying to build up a client base. I haven't really been sure where to advertise, but I have posted a lot of adverts on Facebook, although I only really seem to get any attention on my posts when I'm doing some...

I am new to the industry (and posting on SG). I work on the side of my "normal job" and have a small customer base do waxing, lashes + brows and massage. I wondered if anyone has used their qualifications whilst travelling overseas? Mostly, I want to know how difficult it is to obtain...
