About the template
What this nail technician quote template covers and why it wins bridal bookings
Nail tech quotes lose work when bridal parties are billed as a single 'wedding package'. The template below itemises each service per person and manicure, pedicure, gel finish, nail art and so the bride can drop services if budget is tight.
For mobile work, the travel surcharge and minimum-booking clause both appear on the quote. Most bridal bookings need a 4-person minimum to justify the call-out.
What to include
Every nail technicians quote should have these lines
Use it as a checklist when you build your quote from scratch, or pull the QuoteGenio template that already has them.

Avoid these
Common mistakes on nail technicians quotes
The patterns that quietly lose jobs, get queried at payment time, or leave money on the table.
Mistake: Single bridal package total
Better: Itemise per person. Bride drops or adds services without renegotiating the whole quote.
Mistake: Nail art bundled with gel
Better: Custom nail art takes real time. Quote separately so the value is visible.
Mistake: Soak-off forgotten
Better: If removing existing gel, that's 15-20 min per person. Quote as its own line.
Mistake: Travel surcharge silent
Better: State standard radius and per-km surcharge so the rate makes sense.
Mistake: Minimum booking missing
Better: State '4-person minimum on mobile bookings' so the call-out is justified.
Mistake: No setup time stated
Better: Mobile setup at a venue is real time. Quote separately.
