uv gel prices

[daintyfingers]

Same question that I am sure has been asked many times!!!!
I have just done a course in uv gel and am charging £28.50 for a full set BUT I haven't yet decided on charges for everything else - overlays, infills, repairs, etc.
Could anyone please help me as I am realy confused about the structure and ow to put it on my pricelist. Does anyone have any websites I could check out for prices / wording for gel..........................?????????

How did you work out your price for a full set?

You need to know how much it cost to actually do the full set (how much gel you use, prep, tips, a file, etc.etc.) then how long are you doing the set for as you need to charge for your time. This is your basic price then mark up to get your profit, use nail bars n other techs around you to find you pricing stucture. Use this as a guide to work out your fills n repairs.

A full set is the first price but clients should have more fills/rebalances than full sets in their time with you so charge accordingly.
You say you've just done the course - is 28.50 appropriate for your area to charge - will you be able to put your prices up after a year?

Hope this helps

With help for your infill price - LCN say that it should be 2/3 of your full set price beacuse that'a about the time it takes. Therefore with your prices they should be about £18 - £20, plus extra for repairs.
