How to choose the name

  1. Think about how clients will search

    Many clients search for "nails" plus their neighborhood on Instagram or Google Maps. Having "nails" in the name helps people find you at the start, when they do not know you yet.

  2. If you work from home, say it in your bio, not in your name

    A name with "home nails" in it limits you the day you open a shop. Pick a name that works anywhere, and say where you work in your bio and on your booking page.

  3. Before you decide, check that it is free

    Search the name on Instagram, on Google Maps for your city and in the USPTO trademark database. If another business in your field already uses it nearby, pick another: it saves you confusion and legal trouble.

  • Clients book themselves from your link

    They pick a day and time without texting you.

  • WhatsApp reminder

    Your client confirms with one button. From the Estudio plan up.

  • Mark who showed up

    When the appointment ends, it asks if the client showed up and how they paid

Frequently asked questions

Should I put "nails" in the name?

It makes clear what you do without reading anything else. If you plan to add lashes or brows later, you can choose a general name and use "nails" only in your Instagram handle.

What should I name a home nail business?

A name that still works the day you get a shop. Names with your first name work very well at the start, because clients recommend you.

How many names should I test?

Keep three finalists, check that they are free on Instagram and Google, and ask five clients which one they remember the next day.
