    Alot of people dont realize that just because the price converted to USD is relatively cheap, its doesnt mean the price is cheap compared to what workers are topically paid in japan

      In my country they usually do nails for 2600-3900 yen if I convert it, more expensive places do them for 5000. So for me they seem expensive even though I live in our capital city. 😅

      Because getting nail art are considered luxury vs the regular manicure. There's really no correlation between different salaries and luxury service.

      @@catmerchant8699 that's for nail art as well usually. If you get plain short nails it's cheaper at some places, other places ask for the same price still when you get nail art or just plain nails, it just depends on length how much they ask for (at least at my nail tech and the ones I used to go to).

      a same exact set would’ve only cost me $15 in my home country. it really depends on the living cost of each country/city. i lived abroad and i had my nails done there (a solid color with extensions) for $42. for some paying $80 for nails is the norm, but in other places they’re usually much cheaper

But damn. I can't imagine paying for a 2-3 hour work with no toilet break.
