Market analysis!

So I guess I will join the crowed now in beauty skilling.

How many of you change change looks and hair etc... like each month or ever use this service?

I could see that PE could host maybe 2 or 3 uber skilled beauty servicees, like coloring. But I feel that there are alot more then 3 that can do upto everything in all 3 proofs.

In Miner's Mafia there aren't beautician (we're 46, 20 really active).
I never used this service and don't know if ever I'll use it, at the same time in my society there are 2-3 persons that would use it.
Hope that these info can help you and good luck with the new work if you'll start it.

I do hairstyling, but I don't see much of a business for it yet.
Maybe when the population reaches past 1 million.

Talking

From my experience, most people are not likely to change their appearance on a regular basis .. I would say once a year or less for most, and even then it might be minor changes not a full make-over.

For hair, I would say that color is probably a more likely change than style for some, especially given that many have old styles that are not yet unlocked for any hairstylist to replicate. If we ever get "party colors" available, then I think coloring will really take off and be something people will change regularly to match their latest outfits.

I don't tend to expect to have repeat business from customers on a regular basis, and instead rely on their word of mouth as referrals to gain additional customers. It is not a "frequent flyer" sort of business, at least not from my experience.

As with all EU professions, skilling takes time and ped. Beauty skilling adds an additional complexity because it is not a solo activity - you must have someone in the chair clicking buttons in order to get skill.

As it stands right now, Akoz and Ido are by far the highest skilled and well known, and there are others of us slowly building up skills to have a decent level of services to offer our customers.

The number of people skilling in beauty seems to be picking up lately, so we may likely see some fluctuation in business as the market becomes more saturated with available beauticians.

I hope that helps, Kimmi. I'd be happy to talk further with you about my experiences in the "business" (though admittedly limited at this point) if you have any questions.

I apologize if my information is not correct. I remain focused on hairstylist, and so that is the perspective from which I speak.

lol that sounds promising :P

I would probably change my hair now and again probably once every 4 months or so (maybe a little longer) and i think build would be something ppl may change. I have changed my body to become larger (in all aspects lol) probably 3 times in about 8 months or so. and will probably continue doing so at about the same rate depending on my mood :P
