Nail service price list template
A price list should make booking easier without hiding the costs that protect your profit. The strongest nail menus separate base services from add-ons, show what is included, and leave room for custom work.
Start with base services
List the services clients book most often: gel manicure, builder gel, acrylic full set, fill, removal, repair, and pedicure if you offer it. Each base price should already cover normal time, supplies, overhead, and your labor goal.
Separate add-ons from the base price
Length, shape, French, chrome, repair, soak-off, and nail art should not be buried inside every service. Clear add-ons help clients understand why two appointments with the same base service can cost different amounts.
Use ranges only where the work truly varies
A range like $75+ is useful for custom sets, but too many ranges can make clients nervous. Use fixed prices for predictable services and ranges for work that changes by time, complexity, or nail count.
Add policy notes without clutter
A good price list includes short notes for deposits, late arrivals, repairs, foreign fills, removals, and nail art quoting. Keep policies factual and easy to scan.
Example: simple price list structure
The template keeps base services easy to book, while add-ons make complexity visible before checkout.

Should my nail price list show exact prices or starting prices?
Use exact prices for predictable services and starting prices for services that change by length, art, repairs, or complexity. Avoid using starting prices as a substitute for clear add-on rules.
What should be included in a nail price list?
Include base services, fills, removals, repairs, add-ons, nail art tiers, policy notes, and booking requirements. The goal is to reduce surprises for both you and the client.
How often should I update my price list?
Review it whenever supply costs, rent, service time, demand, or your income goal changes. Many solo techs review quarterly and publish larger updates with advance notice.
Should I copy another salon's price list?
Use other menus only as market context. Your prices need to come from your time, costs, skill, rent, demand, and business goals.
