wifes taking the leap from self-employed cleaner (doing her back in) to doing nails, shellac etc, you know the sort of thing. its what shes interested in so it seems a good little business for her to get into long-term.
we've spunked all our spare cash into it, set her up a little studio in the house, she's taken the courses and is just starting to do people, shes been quite busy this week already.
we want to set up a facebook page for her with offers, pics etc, but dont know how to do that yet, we'll sort it tho. with that in mind she'll need some sort of business name, not just 'jackies nails', make it all a bit more official.
she plans on ploughing money back in, taking further courses, maybe even doing lash lifts, waxing possibly, so the name needs to be more holistic than just nails.
you chaps have far more imagination than me and i know youve come up with some belters before when people have asked 🙂
winner gets er....... a free shellac set of nails 😉

You might think it's shit but I'm a marketing genius.

im hoping for something more holistic tho rather than just nails in the title, something that could cover the whole 'beauty market' and maybe some 'non-funny' examples too? dont want it to appear jokey, this is a serious business 😉
cheers

My one tip after 26 years of very middling success ... pick a name that spells out what you do.
We went with an arty farty name and it stuck but it irritates the hell out of me now, and crucially doesn't describe what we do.
Pretty good or Pretty-good.
Also as well as describing what you do make sure you can get a www address arc.

You want to be careful that you don't slip and end up amputating something. I couldn't deal with that, I'm lack-toes intolerant.

This.
First of all what is the word or phrase that describes what she does or plans to do. We've decided it isn't "nails" because that's too limiting. It isn't "hands" if she is planning to do lashes. So, is it "beauty"? Beauty salons seem to be a thing. I'd go for something boring like Jackie's Beauty. Or Jackie's Beauty Treatment.
Otherwise do a Lionel Hutz - "No! More nails".

thats pretty much what ive been thinking and can only come up with 'salon' or 'beauty' as all-encompassing words.
you really have come up with some crackers tho, really clever. ill show her this thread when she gets in, see what she thinks to them all.
cheers

Handjobs and the glad wags.

Also, just in case it isn't obvious, check if the name is taken on the web first as well. I known some folks that were very proud of their very clever marketing team designed name but it was already taken so then they had to use something a bit different on the web (with some words added at the end). It's not a disaster but it's not the best either
(that's only because my idea of 'nailed it' was taken second post 🙁 )

Wax On, Whack Off?
Following on from my suggestion yesterday – Be You Beauty or Be You Beautiful (which is similar to Myti's suggestion above).

What about something along the lines of ‘The Pamper Lounge’ or ‘The Beauty Room’? Spells out what you offer but gives loads of scope as your wife takes different courses to get more skills.
