How Recent Tariffs Could Impact the Nail Community

As the nail industry continues to grow, recent changes in international trade policy may create some ripple effects worth understanding—especially for nail techs, salon owners, and product lovers.

In short, new tariffs on imported goods—including raw materials and beauty-related products—could impact the availability, pricing, and timelines of many items commonly used in salons and by at-home nail artists.

What Does This Mean for the Nail Industry?

Many nail supplies, including gels, acrylics, tools, and accessories, are manufactured or sourced internationally. Tariffs placed on imported goods can lead to:

• Increased costs for suppliers and brands

• Delays in product availability or restocks

• Potential price adjustments at retail level

While these changes won’t affect every product or brand immediately, the industry as a whole may feel the shift in the coming months.
