    I am planning on opening a salon & was wondering if its better to rent a space to a nail technician or to hire & pay a wage
    If nail technicians could reply & let me know which is beneficial to them that would be great

    id say rent the space. Eliminate the risk starting up of someone sitting there do nothing and getting paid. They could also bring in business for you also. Just make sure they are good.

    I'm not a nail technician (seriously - is that what they're called these days? :rolleyes: ), but I think the best option would be a revenue sharing arrangement. Come to an agreement with the ... person ... (:D I can't type that phrase again) that you receive a percentage of revenue up to an agreed figure. After that figure you get a smaller percentage. Or something like that.

    This reduces risk and encourages the person to promote their own business, from which you may get some spin-off.

    edit: Having said that, surely the best option is to hire somebody and ensure a good service for your customers.

    As a nail technician in the city I am a free lancer..I was due to start in a salon ( renting space giving a % back to the hair salon) Was due to start earlier this month but due to insurance reasons it made it very complicated..make sure your insurance will accept theirs .. best of luck ..hopefully better luck than I had!
