Mobile therapists - nail varnishes

[Nailcat]

Seraphine, that is just an amazing idea, you really do need to look into marketing that idea. You would make loads over here in America with that. I would buy three at least. Kudos to you!

I actually have a clear bag to put mine in, so people can see them better and only have to rummage a little.

I find trying to display them so they can be seen is quite hard and means i have even more to carry to a client.

Plus, with a bag i just add my new colours.

Woo hoo - I have an order!

I'm going to do another thread to see if anyone else is interested (if I go to buy supplies, it would save me an additional trip).

I'm glad you like my idea! I'll have to look into trademarking this somehow.

Hi Seraphine, the images wont load for me - would you be able to post them again? This sounds great.

I've made a sandwich board to hold my varnishes, and it works great!! It fits into the bottom section of my metal carry case.

I made it out of two pieces of MDF, hinged together at the top, with a carry handle built into the top. The boards also have a strap attaching them so I can just pick it up and set it on my table to show off the colours.

The varnishes are held on with little "seatbelts" of elastic that I threaded through the boards. This keeps them snug and it acts as a carrier and a display at the same time.

I drilled holes in the boards first, then glued the fleece cover on. I then threaded the elastic through the holes in the boards and the fleece so it was looped on top, to make the seatbelts. I finished the edges in black electricians tape to make a smooth edge and to disguise the MDF.

Be creative and have fun with it!!

Me too. I’m intrigued

I think the intrigue will continue as the pics were posted 10 years ago & the poster hasnt been back for 2 years xx

Hello geeks,

I have now got a collection of OPI nail varnishs but i was just wondering how do other mobile therapists take their varnishes when they are visiting clients.

Is there a box that you can display the colours? Or do you just keep them in a bag and let your client choose what colour they like by rumaging through the bag.

I take my equipment in those pink hard cases so there is no way to really put them on show.

Hope your all enjoying the sunshine.

What if you take a photo of your entire range and WhatsApp the client asking them to choose before you visit them-that way you won’t have to carry loads.

Or is that too rude-just a student at the moment.

I do this all the time due to most ckients taking soo long to choose!!

With my work colleges I do, I take my swatch stick most days, then the day before I’ll get them to choose a colour (or a couple of colours) I’ll usually bring that and a couple of glitter options if I know they like glitter.
When I see mobile clients I’ll probably ask them to choose a colour (say nude, or purple) then bring my range within that colour, as I now have too many to carry around really.
