PRONAILS NAIL POLISH COLLECTION

Jungle Jewels

Deep in the jungle, nature’s camouflage tactics result in the most theatrical and striking visual effects. Colour contrasts, optical patterns and textures are used to attract or divert, in a beautiful but ruthless game of survival of the fittest.

This summer, assertive women with dynamic urban lifestyles take on a Jane-of-the-Jungle high powered look without sacrificing either glamour or femininity. Combining army inspired jackets with an abundance of spectacular jewelry, they use evening glamour accessories for bold, daytime fashion statements.

Like the armored skin of a precious jungle creature, these ProNails Jungle Jewels offer a chic camouflage for urban amazons. Dazzling metallics are combined with dark natural tones and lit up by tropical brights. These contrasts create a flomboyant beauty look, that focuses on high impact ombre effects, made possible with the ProNails Nail Art Sponge.

1. Apply 2 layers of ProNails Nail Polish n° 328 Law Of The Jungle, and let dry completely.

2. Apply a small amount of ProNails Nail Polish n° 331 Golden Mist on the tip of the Nail Art Sponge. Take the Sponge and start immediately dabbing the Nail polish onto the nail, without letting it dry. Start at the free edge of the nail, and work towards the middle and the sides, fading the two colours into one another.

3. Repeat step 2 for a second layer.

4. Use the ProNails Slim Nail Art Brush n° 1 and draw a thin French smile line with ProNails Nail Polish n° 330 Mai Tai Me. Finish off this design with your favourite gloss.

TIP: You can have the same result by using ProNails Gellak n° 130 Law Of The Jungle as a base colour, applied in 2 layers according to the normal protocol. In this case you need to buff the nail slightly with the Soft Finisher to ensure maximum adhesion with the Nail Polish, that you will apply afterwards with the Nail Art Sponge. Continue with step 2 to 4 as described above to finish your design.

Animal inspired prints make this jungle look come to life.

Dress your nails like a Wild Cat with golden fur spots, or add some Jewel Bugs like tiny precious gems to lighten up your manicure.

Wear a nail design that mimics the ingenious structure of Dragonfly Wings, or create a camouflage pattern made entirely from butterflies. Let the realm of jungle species be your nail art mood board!

Nail Stickers Jewel bugs - ref. 28315 Wild Cat - ref. 28314

TIP! Apply these nail stickers on top of your dry nail polish and

protect them with a coat of ProNails Gloss It Up or Seco Seco!

NAIL DESIGN PATCH Dragonfly Wings - ref. 28334

These unique and original Nail Designs come in a convenient wide sticker strip. It allows you complete freedom in creating your own shape and size of the pattern, with which you want to decorate the nail.

How You Do It



1. Cut out the desired shape and stick it onto your dry base coat, nail polish or colour gel.

2. If necessary, file the excessive sticker in a vertical and downwards movement off your nail.

3. Protect your Nail Design Patch with a top coat like ProNails Seco Seco. For an extended wear, apply a UV gel top gloss.

Make sure to seal the nail tip!

When semi-permanent polishes arrived on the market, I immediately realized the extra potential for my salon. I tried out several products in the beginning, and today I am a convinced Sopolish user. The shine is absolutely amazing and long lasting, and the colours apply just as easily as nail polish.

IAL

N TESTIMO

My clients value natural beauty a lot. They visit me for various beauty treatments, pedicures and manicures.

Somehow I never had clients for gel nails. I guess I was known for my good skills in applying nail polish and in fact no client would ever leave my salon without a nice colour on their nails.

Almost all my clients made the switch to Sopolish. It didn’t take a lot of convincing either. After all, Sopolish offers them a nail polish look, without causing harm to the natural nail, and has the advantages of gel: two weeks of perfectly polished and shiny nails! They also really adore the colours. And the best part: no more risks of smudging your freshly manicured nails, since they are instantly dry!

• 14 days perfectly polished nails • Matching Nail Polish colours • No damage to the natural nail • Everlasting shine

cial event. With Sopolish they are sure their nails will stay perfectly intact for ‘the big day’. In summer I also have a lot of Sopolish clients for toenails. Especially when they go on holiday, since Sopolish doesn’t lose its shine, not even on the beach!

I was offered the chance to test the new Sopolish LED lamp in my salon. I simply adore the cute design and thanks to the LED lamp I definitely spend less time on each client. I now can do more clients a day, which makes a serious difference at the end of each month!

What do fatty acids do for your skin?

Fatty acids are some of the “good fats” that your body needs to be healthy. They are responsible for regulating cell function. Youthful skin is full of plump, water-filled cells. A skin cell’s ability to hold water decreases with age. A healthy skin cell has a healthy membrane, which keeps good things in, like water and nutrients, and allows waste products to pass out. It is a fatty acid’s job to keep that cell healthy and its membrane functioning. If you don’t get enough fatty acids this will lead to sagg y, aged skin.

BLEACHED

It’s time for a fresh start. Time to see The Silver Lining of things. If anything, the recent global economic and ecological challenges are forcing people, and companies, to be creative. It makes us look for better and more sustainable ways to live together. Today’s consumers are more conscience than ever, and will only accept innovations that are actual improvements. The world around us is changing at hyper-speed, but this season we embrace ‘change’ as the only constant factor, and as a non-stop source of opportunities.

As always fashion is an Early Adopter of the new ideas and trends that are changing the world. This summer designers use fashion as an Instant Antidote against the cynics of these challenging times. A new pallet of bleached, elevated colours is swiping the summer collections like a Nouvelle Vague. The general demand for more honesty and transparency, is reflected in the use of translucent fabrics and effects.

Innovative metallic finishings are applied, often combined with geometrical shapes or patterns. Being smart is the new sexy. Let us take our next steps into the future with this fresh & positive mindset.

If you want to keep the matt effect, finish off with 1 layer of Matt Touch.

10 Powerful Tips to maxim

ize your retail income

3

1. Left-Right principle

2. Positive Curve

3. Odd versus even

People spontaneously look towards the right. Make sure your retail products are exposed on the right-hand side of your cash register or working table and are easy for your client to touch. Move your computer to the opposite side.

Always create a positive curve when presenting products to your client. Small products on the left, large products on the right. This automatically puts your client in positive state of mind.

Always present an uneven number of products when you make a suggestion to your client (e.g. 3). An even number appeals to clients intellect, an uneven number appeals to their emotion.

2

| 49

4

6

4. Eye-level

6. Try & Learn

Products are noticed more by your clients when they are at eye level. Remember that when they are sitting down their eye level is lower.

Move things about regularly (every 6 weeks). You may find that in a new location your customers may discover new retail products that have been there all along.

5. No-corner

5

Do not put your displays in a corner where nobody can see them. Avoid putting products on display that cannot be seen or reached. Products in closed display cabinets will not sell no matter how good they are. Neither will products behind the counter do very well.

7. Feeling is believing!

Let your customer sample a cream or care product during her treatment. Trigger the senses, with manicure candles, absorbant foot foams and soft creams.

“If you’re afraid to lose, you’ll never win…”

Interview with Mario Van Looveren ProNails Premium Salon, Sint-Job, Belgium

ProNails: Mario, you have been a hairdresser for 20 years now. You have a beautiful AVEDA salon and yet you opened a ProNails Premium Salon.

Some people would call that an ambitious business move.

Mario: “Yes I suppose they would, but I strongly believe that if you’re afraid to lose, you will never win. You need to feel the waters and have the courage to take the plunge. To give you an example: I once started with solariums and that didn’t work out. My ProNails Premium Salon is catching on well, I have a great team and my customers like the concept.

We started with selling Nail Polish in the salon, then we started applying Sopolish, and soon after we opened our ProNails Premium salon. We had to build up a customer base from scratch and slowly but surely we did. Starting with just one customer a day, then 3 each day and we’re always moving further in the right direction. We have made a lot of nail biters very happy by now who can be very proud of their hands. Never underestimate what retail income can do for you while your are still building your clientele. Of course I already have a loyal customer base in my AVEDA hairdresser salon. But still nothing happens by itself.

You reap what you sow!”

ProNails: I can see a lot of Aveda and ProNails retail products here in your salon. In fact, I feel like I have entered a professional shop. Can you give us an insight on how you approach retail sales in your salon?

Mario: “Sure, I create a shop-in-shop in my salon. For my clients it’s customary to shop here for their hair, body and now nail care needs. Of course you first need to make sure you choose a good

50 | PRONAILS NAILY NEWS spring - summer 2014

brand to be able to do this. A brand with a strong and exclusive image that you can’t just buy anywhere. A unique brand that people have heard of and are willing to look for. And then you need to show the products in your salon in a way that your clients can perceive them. This is the tricky part and it takes some experience and playing about ‘till you get it right.

Believe me, I’m still experimenting and learning every day. People need to be able to spontaneously grab hold of a product that triggers their curiosity. You need to arouse their senses. They need to be able to see, feel and smell the products.

In a lot of places you see retail products behind the counter. That’s a mistake.

Clients can’t touch and feel the products.

That’s very important. The ProNails nail polish displays are perfect eye-catchers.

I scatter and move them around continuously, also in my hairdresser salon.

My clients spend at least one hour in the salon and with a colourful collection in front of them they are very likely to reach out and pick their favorite one.”

ProNails: That’s very interesting to hear. What do you do, on the other

8. Dust is a deal-breaker!

10. 360° Consistency

Everybody loves something new. Make sure it stays looking new in your salon.

Make sure your retail products and displays do not collect dust and clean them regularly.

Try to have a consistent image in your salon. This goes for both your services as for the products you have on retail.

Use the same message and image in your salon, on your social media, your shop window, products, posters, leaflets or displays. Our brain needs repetition in order to register information. The more repetition your client gets, the more she will accept.

9. The power of scarcity

If a product or colour in a display is not selling as well as it should, try taking some products out. A display with open spots sells better than a full display. It will draw the attention of you client.

hand, when you invest in something and it doesn’t work?

Mario: “That’s frustrating of course but then I try a different approach. Try and try again. I present things differently, move them to another location, take some products out of displays that are slower in sales. In fact, a full display is never good. For example, I have a big AVEDA make-up stand that stood in the back of the salon next to the washing tables for a long time. Everyone needed to pass by it but nobody saw it. Now I’ve moved it to the front of the salon, more towards the shop-in-shop area. I reduced the passage way slightly and BINGO, it’s getting much more attention from my clients. The advantage of my salon I have to say, is that I can move around all the furniture very easily. My salon is 11 years old now and I’ve been doing this from the start. You have to experiment at the beginning, but eventually you find what works. Observe your customers, you will learn a lot.”

ProNails: Any tips for start-ups?

Mario: “At the beginning you need to be careful not to want to do too much.

I made that same mistake when I started up myself. I wanted to have too many customers and I wasn’t able to serve them well enough. You’re better off starting with less customers that you can offer a very good service: they will

keep coming back. This may take a little longer but you will build a solid and durable clientele. Never lose your personal touch with your customers. I send all my clients a birthday card every year. Don’t forget that word-of-mouth is the best and the cheapest publicity you can have for your salon.”

ProNails : How important is education to you and to your people?

Mario: “Very important! Education is a big part of motivation. People who never take the time to learn something new get a burn-out after a while. A training course is a source of inspiration.

ProNails : What’s your view on advertising? Does it pay off in your opinion?

Mario: “It’s difficult, a lot has changed in advertising. I’ve been working now for 20 years. In those days people would react to an ad you placed in a printed magazine. But today the media landscape has moved to more intangible media like Facebook, Twitter or SMS and you need to evolve with it. We have a Facebook page for our ProNails Premium Salon.

Caroline manages this page, she’s young and dynamic and knows exactly what triggers her fellow age-group. She’s currently working out a Facebook contest where participants will have to answer questions to which they can find the answer on our website. This way they get to know our products while enjoying a bit of fair competition with their peers.”

I notice this very clearly when my people come back form a course because they are often more passionate. If you are passionate, your clients are passionate about you too.”

ProNails : Thank you Mario for sharing your thoughts with us. One last question : What is your key to success?

Mario: “In one word : Perseverance! Don’t give up, no matter how hard it is sometimes. And if things are a little tight now, don’t be afraid to take a step back. Drive a smaller car. Don’t worry what people will think, just be honest, your customers will appreciate you for this.”
