Also, I work out of a salon doing Aesthetics and currently give 30%. The salon owner expects 30% of the permanent makeup profit. I feel 20% is a fair price plus a referral fee of $50 per client. Am I being fair here? I paid for my training, all of my advertising, supplies, basically everything including my sign for the front window. This was training above and beyond the aesthetics that I committed to do out of this room.

Not affraid of a move.

I am going to place an order through Kolorsource today for pigments and will check into the Freedom Machine in the future (after some glitches are fixed).

Thanks for your opinion on the salon. I wanted to make sure I wasn't the one being greety.

As for supplies, I like to order my stuff at KP Permanent Makeup (http://www.kpmakeup.com/). They have affordable machines and needles there.

I also work at a salon and the owner takes 20% commission. It's fair because I have to spend so much on insurance and supplies. All they have to do is provide a room and help find clients (which most of my clients are from previous client's referral).

Hope this helps you out.

wondering who the supplier is of li pigments?
