Nail Salons guide

Tips by technician

Customers often tip on the card. A POS that assigns each service to a technician and reports tips per person keeps payroll right and avoids disputes among staff.

Bookings and deposits

Longer services such as full sets benefit from booking with a deposit or card on file and a clear cancellation policy.

Gift cards and loyalty

Gift cards bring prepaid revenue. Built-in POS gift cards usually cost less than third-party programs.

Pricing

Tickets are small to medium. Look at per-transaction fees and avoid leases. Many salons serve customers in several languages, so multilingual screens help staff.
