Summary

Self-employed Beauty Therapist / Nail Technician with nearly 9 years of experience successfully running a busy, client-focused business. Highly skilled in nail design, hygiene standards, and client care, with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality treatments within a professional and welcoming salon environment.

I manage a fully booked 5-day schedule, demonstrating excellent time management, organisation, and the ability to operate efficiently under pressure. Through independently overseeing all aspects of the business, I have developed strong skills in client relations, operations, and day-to-day salon management.

Key strengths include:

  • Managing all client bookings, enquiries, and scheduling to ensure a seamless and efficient workflow
  • Building and maintaining a loyal client base through exceptional service and consistent results
  • Using social media platforms (Instagram, Reels, TikTok) to promote services, increase engagement, and drive business growth
    Overseeing stock control and inventory management to ensure smooth daily operations
    Creating a clean, organised, and welcoming salon environment in line with high hygiene standards
  • Prioritising client satisfaction, ensuring every client leaves feeling valued through both quality treatments and a positive overall experience

Potential to seek transition into a Salon Manager role, where I can apply my hands-on experience in business operations, team support, and client service to contribute to the success and growth of a salon.
