“How do two brothers get into the nail care business?” This is the single most common question people ask us. There’s a long and rocky version but we’ll give you the short one. We have our fearless and unconventional mother, Young Salo, to thank. With a single-minded entrepreneurial spirit, she decided to start her own business at the age of 49. She had a passion for the nail industry and we did everything in our power to support her. In the end, this is a family business.
Greg, the older brother, became a licensed nail technician after switching gears from fire fighter’s training. He is energy personified and has a true passion for developing the best professional nail care products and education. Habib is the younger brother. He jumped in a few years later; taking a detour from medical school and a life in music. He brings his own creative mind for business, marketing and strategy. Unexpectedly, we are a perfect team.
Today, more than 20 years later, Young Nails Inc., is a professional nail care manufacturing company exporting to over 40 countries worldwide and distributing domestically to over 3000 stores. We’re respected for our next-level product innovation and education. Our mission is to bring you the best quality products and we’ll show you how to use them with incredible results. It’s really that simple.

I’m a new nail tech been in this business for 3 months!! I agree with everything she’s saying especially graduating school and trying to go right to renting a spot!! A big no no no no… build your clientele first even if it takes a few months or a whole year!! Always build your portfolio up even if you start with one client a day!!! This nail world is not easy but we got this!! -for my other fellows nail techs starting ❤
My twelve month plan:
1. Practice everyday with my trainer hand while saving money for school
2. Upload my progress to Instagram everyday
3. Enroll and complete school
4. License 🎉🎉🎉🎉
5. Build clientele at commission salon
I decided to booth rent and I am so excited. I have been extremely blessed in my opportunities. My dad is willing to help me with the first 6 months, possibly first 12 months of the rent costs. I also am going to the salon that is owned by my instructor from nail tech school and so is another student who graduated around the same time I did. So it’s like I’m getting the best of both worlds. I have the freedom of booth rental but am going to be able to learn from them.
Thank you so much for putting this out there. You guys are truly amazing. Please continue to add more information about how to be successful in this industry. This is not some thing I feel that they go over enough in school I know just hearing it is helpful. Thank you young nails
No lie I'm a cosmetology and I work on hair mostly and you guys are so motivating. Love u guys!
Thank you.. I tell beginner nail techs this all the time.. you gtta learn the business before you try to open one.. 👏👏
It’s intimidating to take these steps lol but thank you for all this information. This is one of the best topics, It really helps us beginners have that boost and preparation mentality. Again, we Appreciate you guys for being open with us and sharing… keep it coming !💞💅✨
I'm having a very hard time finding a commission salon. Everyone wants me ready and as fast as their top tech right away. I can do all the services, and learn anything new very quickly, just run over time(between 1-30 mins depending on service). Working on it.
This is timely, as I'm finishing up school in the next few weeks and I'm looking for a salon to rent a booth from. Thank you for all this great information.
As always, great information, thank you YN!
You are so helpful to so many. Thank you. Happy Easter.
You have to have all the basic stuff that you need starting out and a couple odds and ends, but never overdo it when it comes to products that will waste your time and money.. get the necessities that are needed to start off and go from there
I love these videos!! Please do more!!
Thanks for this video, I got my license less than a month ago and started this week booth renting. So far I've had 3 clients only. I am focusing a lot on practice and social media and trying to get to my "break even point" . I am so scared, but very excited 😊
Great information ❤
I suffer from wanting to have my own place 🙆♀️thanks for the information I worry that if I work with other nail tech what if I don't get clients and they don't approach me
Thank you
Hi YN! First off, I want to say with only about 2 months of subscribing to your channel I have learned so much not just about the fundamentals and techniques for different styles, but also the nail tech industry as a whole. So thank you for creating this channel and providing such great educational content. I’m an aspiring nail tech who recently became a mother. I try to make time to practice at home as I’m unable to pursue my license while on maternity leave, but I would like to gain some hands on experience working at a nail salon while I’m enrolled in a nail tech program. Any advise on how to get started with a nail tech career? Thanks!

I’m a new nail tech, based in Australia 😊
Thank you so much for your insightful videos around the business side of the industry 💐
I’m home based and got my certification last month 🥰🥳 I am now really in the thick of building my business up, working on establishing clientele and practicing daily.
I love it so much.
Even though I am not in a salon, I have found the online community to be so amazing and supportive. More experienced Nail Techs have offered help, advice and various tips and tricks which I am eternally grateful for!
That commission structure does not work in the UK - some places you will have to furnish all your supplies sometimes your furniture and will ask for 60% the most frequent parentage is 50/50 One salon I am aware of is paying £5 per hr plus 20%
We completely understand that every area and salon is going to be different. Hopefully you can use some of this info and adapt to your personal situation.
I would love to start in a salon but the salons here only hire Vietnamese and family, what do you suggest I do?
Did you try applying to them?
I got hired a an all Vietnamese salon. They are super friendly.
And never give up. You'll find the right fit for you. You got this !!
@@tlomax2768 yes I tried over 15 salons and most of them wouldn’t even let me put in an application. Where are you from?
Be business money conscious big-time because it is your business so don’t waste money unnecessarily. Also budget correctly along with time management can affect money and bottom line as well.
new nail tech at 53 ytd old. i thi k i made a mistake. i just got my license 6 mos ago i have no experience and cannot fig out how to get started. i am currently working in a senior salon gel manicures and pedi only.
im making no money. how can i find a salon that will get me started knowing im still slow on time, or that will work with me in more training and growing.
i feel like throwing in the towel😢
what would be ideal in my case booth or commission, how do i tell a potential employer im slow or still learning without it sounding negative?
If this is truly your passion, don't give up! There are lots of salons that will hire new techs and may even provide additional training. You may have to do a little research to find a salon you like and is comfortable for the service you want to do, but you may be able to check back with the school you attended. A lot of times the schools will have a placement program and they work with salons that hire recent graduates.
As for whether you should do commission or rent, this would be something you would need to determine as to what would be the best for you. Here's a great video that may help you. th-cam.com/video/I3yNpHrvX_s/w-d-xo.html
😅Mean and I thought us painters and sketchers where out crazy 🤣
Aalso what you want your business to be meaning what are thee things that you cover and do and what are the ones that you want advice different but you have to know that as well
Thank you. QUESTION: can you give a range of possible percentages of gross income that you might suggest for inventory? Also what types of insurance is needed and is there a range of possible costs for that? Like an Industry Standard, BALLPARK. For example, does insurance run $100.00 a month, or $1,000 a month?? An average inventory for an average semi well stocked salon would be 15% of gross income.? 30% % without going overboard, just for a basic supply of sterilization and polish and gel and tips and acrylic material...in GENERAL, what is considered a possible percentage for ongoing materials and supplies? For an average business of mani, pedi, gels, acrylics, this would be not counting the I itial investment of products. Of course it would. Ary, but what would you consider and average range? I'm a Subscriber and LOVE your videos. Maybe it's just me, but this video was confusing for me. I ended up more confused than when I started.
It's hard to give specific numbers because everyone's business is going to be different. You would have to figure out what is best for you and your business. We would recommend finding a good financial/business planner if you are unsure where to begin and they can usually guide you according to your business goals. As for insurance, that can vary depending on requirements in your area. Your local city/state/cosmetology board/etc may require a certain amount of coverage and this will affect the cost. If you work as an employee, you may or may not need your own insurance.
@@youngnailsinc thank you. I'm actually wondering if there is an Industry Standard. Of course all businesses in all industries vary. But Im thinking there must be a standard for an average, non specialty practice. Like theres a Industey Standard for Dentist. 10% for materials and supplies and 15% for lab fees. Of course all dentists work differently and someone who does a lot of crowns will have more labwork. An oral surgeon has NO labwork. But if I was looking at a financial statement of a dentist and the materials each month were 30%, that would be a red flag and I'd at least ask why is it so high. If you knew of a nail business that spent 20% on materials, would you say thats not a red flag? Or would you wonder why its so high ?
I know youre not CPA .
But Im thinking guy oure probably aware of a spoken or unspoken Industry Standard. Like what lercentage of your Gross Income did you spend on matierals, on an average?
🤯🤯what how many licenses do we need omg I'm more confused 😕
One license! From state board.
Habib: 😈🖤 Tracey: 😇🤍
i can't keep track of all the thing if you are going back and forth through out the entire video.... came for big advice but sheeshh.... 🙃
There’s certain schools that will help you get job placement but I know that’s not all 🫶🏾👊🏾🎨💅🏽
It’s OK because you’re not going to please everyone and everyone is not gonna be your client base and that’s OK because there is a client for everyone 🫶🏾🎨💅🏽👊🏾
