Nail Tech Client Book

Features
Read full description

Polish is a client book for nail techs: each client's nail preferences, allergies and visit history with photos, in one place before they sit down. CLIENT PROFILES - Contact details, Instagram handle, birthday and a photo - Nail preferences: shape (almond, coffin, stiletto, squoval and more), length, usual service, system, base and top coat, favorite colors and brands - Health and safety notes: allergies and sensitivities, nail conditions, skin sensitivity and medical notes - How often they come in, preferred days and times, how they like to be contacted, and personal notes - A default price, pricing notes and a status: new, active, VIP or inactive - Search by name, phone or service, and sort by recent, A to Z or VIP ALLERGY ALERTS When a client has an allergy on file, a red alert shows on their profile, a warning icon marks them in your client list and the visit form flags it, so a HEMA or acrylic sensitivity is in front of you before you start. VISIT LOG WITH PHOTOS - Log the service (gel manicure, hard gel, soft gel extensions, acrylic full set or fill, dip powder, press-ons, pedicure and more), shape, length, the colors and products used and a design description - Service price, add-ons, tip and payment method - Photos of the set and notes for next time - Shape, length, service and default price fill in from the client's profile PORTFOLIO AND INSPIRATION - Every visit photo lands in your portfolio; filter it by style (French, chrome, ombre, marble, floral and more) using the words in your design descriptions - Save design ideas from your photo library, screenshots from Instagram or Pinterest included: tag the style, set the difficulty, note the products needed and mark each idea as practiced or used on a client REMINDERS AND HOME - Turn on client reminders and Polish schedules a notification for each client 21 days after their last visit, and one on their birthday - Home shows this week's earnings and visits, your latest visits and birthdays in the next 7 days; the bell lists clients who are due for a visit POLISH PRO - Unlimited clients (free: 15), photos per visit (free: 3), visit history (free: each client's last 3 months) and inspiration ideas (free: 20) - Income dashboard: this month's revenue and tips, clients, visits and average per client, a breakdown by service, your top 5 clients this year and a 6-month revenue chart - Product inventory for your supplies, from BIAB base coat to Apres Gel-X tips: brand, category, size, cost, supplier and a stock level you set (full, half, low, reorder, out); anything low, to reorder or out shows in a reorder banner - AI Nail Advisor: ask about techniques, lifting gel, products or pricing and get a written answer from an AI model, up to 30 questions a day (internet connection required). Polish sends only the question you type, never your client records. - Export your clients and visits as CSV files (photos stay in the app) In the US, Polish Pro is $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year (US prices; other countries see their own price in the app). Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage them in your App Store account settings.
