Are Duck Nails Cute?

In recent months, the nail industry has witnessed a rapid emergence of new nail designs on social media. One of the latest trends is duck nails, which have quickly gained popularity among nail enthusiasts and technicians. 💅

Duck nails have sparked quite a bit of controversy due to their unique, duck feet-like shape🐥. The reality is that they don't appeal to every client, nor do they suit every nail tech's style.

As A Nail Tech Should You Offer Duck Nail Sets To Your Clients?

The truth is, no. If you're a nail tech who specialises in a particular nail style, don't feel pressured to change your service offering every time a new nail design trends. Trends are trends for a reason—they come and go, just like a toxic ex-partner 😚. So, never feel obligated to do something you're not comfortable with.

However, if you're a nail tech who loves to challenge yourself and try out new things, kudos to you, bestie! 💗

Do what makes you and your client feel comfortable, cause at the end of the day that what matters!

As A Client How Do I Ask For Duck Nails If My Nail Tech Doesn’t Offer Them Then?

If you're interested in trying duck nails but your nail tech doesn't currently offer them, here's how you can approach the situation:

Research and Show Examples: Gather some photos of duck nails to show your nail tech. Visual references can help them understand exactly what you want.

1. Discuss the Possibility: Ask your nail tech if they would be open to trying a new style. Explain why you're interested in duck nails and share your enthusiasm.
2. Be Patient and Open: Understand that not all nail techs are comfortable with every style, especially if it's something new to them. Be open to their feedback and suggestions.
3. Offer to Book Extra Time: If your nail tech is willing to try duck nails but needs extra time, offer to book a longer appointment to give them the opportunity to perfect the style.
4. Seek Specialist: If your nail tech is not comfortable or interested in trying duck nails, consider finding a nail tech who specialises in this style for that particular appointment.

By being respectful and communicative, you can explore new nail trends while maintaining a good relationship with your nail tech.
