The feed is one page inside your free Polish Perfect account. It shows every job, deal, and referral offer posted by nail salons, supply stores, and nail schools, newest first or closest to you first. Here's what you'll see, how to use it to learn your local market, and how to add your own posts.
What you see in the feed
You get three kinds of posts from three kinds of businesses, all in one list. Each one shows the title, who posted it, how far away they are, how many people have looked, and how long it's been up.
- Jobs from other salons. Open one and you see how the job pays: 60/40, 70/30, booth rental, or hourly plus tips with a pay range. You also see full or part time and the services for that chair.
- Deals from supply stores. Wholesale pricing, a percent off, buy one get one, clearance, or a new brand in stock. Big brands are tagged by name.
- Referral offers from schools and other salons. A school might pay for a student referral or look for a salon to partner with. A salon might offer $25 to $100 if you send them a tech.
Every post comes from a business that has claimed its listing. So you can look them up, call them, and stop by. Nothing in the feed is anonymous, and that's what your free account gets you.

Newest, Nearest, and what owners see first
You can sort the feed two ways. Newest puts the latest post on top, and that's all it does. Nearest looks at how new a post is and how close the business is, with a little extra weight on close. Posts from the last day get moved up, and Featured posts get moved up a bit more.
We also know you're an owner. In Nearest, referral offers and deals move up for you and other salons' job posts move down, because that's what owners open most. Switch to Newest and everything goes back to plain time order.
Two small rules keep the feed easy to read. You won't see the same business twice within 10 posts. And deals only take up about a third of the list, so one busy supply store can't fill your screen.
Set your distance once
The feed starts on Any distance, so your first scroll shows the newest posts from everywhere. Pick 5, 10, 25, 50, or 100 miles and the feed remembers it. We measure from the center of your city, so 5 miles in a big metro is tighter than it sounds. Most owners pick 10 or 25.
Use it to learn your market
The jobs other salons post show you what techs near you are being offered. If three salons close by all post 70/30, you know what a tech expects before you write your own post. Tap Jobs, set 10 miles, sort by Newest, and read for five minutes.
Supply store deals stay up for seven days. So when you tap Deals, you're looking at this week's specials within driving distance. Check it on Monday and you can order before the rep calls.
Referral offers from schools are a way to hire that most owners never see. A school that posts a salon partnership wants a place to send its graduates. Answer it and you're at the front of the line when the next class finishes.
You can also search. Type a brand, a service, or a salon's name in the search bar at the top, and the feed shows only the posts that mention it.
Add your own posts
Once you've claimed your salon, you post from the same screen you read on. There's no long form. You tap your answers, then add a title and a description. Write them yourself or let us draft them for you. You can post three things:
- 01A job. Pick the role, full or part time, how it pays, tips, and the services for that chair. It stays up for 30 days.
- 02A deal. A percent off a service, a new-client special, a package, or a seasonal promo. It stays up for seven days, which is about right for a special. How to post a deal.
- 03A referral offer. Ask people to refer a client or refer a tech, and set a reward of $25, $50, $100, or your own amount. It stays up for 60 days. How to post a referral offer.
You can't edit a post once it's live, so read the preview first. If something's wrong, delete the post and post it again. The new one goes to the top as the newest. Do the same when a job or a special is still open after its post runs out.
The feed is one free sign-up away
Pick your city and you'll see the posts near you. Claim your salon after that and you can post in the same feed.
Where your post shows up
Your post goes to three places. First, the public jobs, deals, or referrals page for your city. Google can find it there, and anyone can read it without an account. Second, your own listing, where your clients already look. Third, the feed, where the rest of the nail trade in your city sees it.
Techs see the feed differently from you. For them, jobs move up and deals move down. So your job post gets that lift without you doing anything. Every application comes with three to five photos of the tech's work and a note. The hiring page explains what happens next.
Featured posts
A post with a Featured badge has a Boost budget behind it. Boost starts at $5, and every claimed salon gets free credit to try it. Featured posts sit higher in the Nearest sort and take the Sponsored spots on the public city pages, including other cities the owner picks. It's optional. And someone else's Featured post never pushes your regular post out of the feed.
It's worth it when you need a chair filled this month, when a special has an end date, or when you want the whole city to know about a new service by Friday.
