I haven't been at my laptop to download the refresh for Spa Day yet, but in theory, is it possible for a sim to run their own spa/nail salon since you can do it earning money now? It seems, somehow, this should be possible for your sim to be a masseuse and/or nail technician. I'm just thinking how to transform into your own business with a building where customers can come in. thoughts?

I've had sims give autonomous foot massages in a restaurant too, so that could also be worth considering.

You don't have to hire employees or set stuff for sale. But you get traffic while you open the business.
oh great! Didn't even know this! ha
I was thinking of doing this first of all, as my sims never seem to have enough money to buy a retail lot. But I reckon you could get rich quick doing yoga classes at the local spa
@crocobaura I set the lot up as a retail lot and let another sim family I don't control own it. So when I go to the lot with my sim who has the aspiration they can use the chairs to offer mani/pedi - just make sure your sim has wellness level 6. Advertise your services on simstagram and then tend the chair. It was funny the first person who requested a manicure was a retail employee. So I don't run the retail lot. Your sim can also tend chairs at the spa or take the portable chair to any lot and start offering mani/pedi and/or massages.
I like the idea of a sim working in a spa but is there a way to make their work room just theirs and the NPC spa workers don't use it?
You can take the chair with you in your inventory. So you just need to make an empty room at the spa, so you can place your chair down when you get there.
brilliant. Ugh, I didn't even finish playing my Cottage Living save and now I want to just forget that one and start a Spa Day save. lol.
You could make a little spa in cottage living. Turn one of the rooms at the pub into a nail salon and and get those farming ladies to have their nails done. Or for fun, you could offer manicures at the festivals.
definitely worth considering. However my Cottage Living save is a male YA farmer who lives with his elderly mother. So I guess he needs to find a wife who could be that wellness guru. haha
