Nail industry in the US and things that not everyone knows

In America, the nail industry has become an important part of the economy. With people increasingly interested in beauty, including nail services, it is no surprise that more and more people are pursuing a career in nail care. Do you really understand the nail industry in the US? This article will provide insights into the nail industry in the US and things that not everyone knows.

How is the Nail Industry developing in the US?

The nail industry in the US is becoming a popular trend for Vietnamese workers because it provides a stable and higher income than in Vietnam. In addition, the demand for nail care in this country is too high. Therefore, if given the opportunity, workers can open their own nail salon with a large number of customers. Therefore, it is not surprising that many Vietnamese people pursue this profession when living in the US.

What are the benefits of the nail industry in the US?

What benefits can a career in the nail industry bring that so many people want to join? They will be answered in the following sections.

Stable Income

A stable and high income is one of the main reasons why many people decide to study this profession in Vietnam and work in the US. According to statistics, nail technicians in the US can earn up to $5,000 per month. However, this income depends not only on skills and experience but also on effort, hard work, and your ability to build relationships. If you work in large nail salons in the US, your income will be even higher.

Moreover, there is a tipping culture in the US. The nail technician’s tips usually amount to about 15%, and then it is split 6:4 with the salon owner. Nail technicians will receive 50% of the tips through their salary and the remaining 50% will be cash. With this method, the tips will not be taxed because if they receive 100% as usual, the income will be around $4,000, equivalent to the taxable income of workers.

After working for a long enough time, you can apply for a nail salon license as long as you meet the qualifications, certifications, and years of experience. If you work hard and are lucky enough, you can develop further by opening a chain of nail salons.

High Demand for Beauty Services

It is easy to see that people in the US are very interested in beauty. They are willing to spend a large amount of money just to relax on a massage chair for a few hours or experience a manicure and pedicure service. Therefore, to meet their own beauty needs, they have to go to nail spas or nail salons. With such a high demand for beauty services from customers, a nail salon will have a stable customer base if it ensures quality.

Challenges of the Nail Industry in the US

Along with the advantages, there are certainly many challenges that require nail salons to meet to survive in the US.

Cultural and Language Barriers

As we know, the nail industry in the US is mostly participated by Vietnamese people. Therefore, cultural differences between the two countries are inevitable. Therefore, it is necessary to understand American culture to avoid unnecessary problems in serving customers.

In addition, the language used in the US is English. To perform the job well, you need to know English to be able to communicate easily with customers.

Meeting Full Labor Conditions

To work in the nail industry in the US, you need to meet the labor conditions in this country. The requirements that the State Board sets for workers are not easy. Here are a few notes for you.

  • Have a high school diploma
  • Have English communication skills, at least IELTS 4.0
  • Have a nail professional certificate

High Competition

The hotter the industry, the higher the competition rate. The same goes for the nail industry. You have to compete with many other nail salons, which is obvious. Therefore, to attract customers, you need to have a difference, especially the skills of nail technicians.

However, to become a successful nail salon, it not only requires good skills of nail technicians but also knowledge of the laws and regulations of this industry. In addition, standards for hygiene and safety are also considered very important in the nail industry.

Nail technicians in the US usually attend courses to meet training requirements and update the latest knowledge. Some courses also include business and financial management skills to help nail technicians become successful business owners. In addition, nail technicians can participate in nail competitions and exhibitions to introduce unique nail models and attract customers.

Conclusion

In general, like any other profession, the nail industry also faces challenges. One of them is the issue of nail salons closing for a long time due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Many nail technicians and salons have had to temporarily close or reduce working hours to ensure the safety of customers and employees, while also facing the risk of bankruptcy. However, the nail industry is still developing and many nail technicians and salons are still trying to adapt and develop their businesses.
