Texas has no state income tax. Every dollar you save on software stays in your pocket. The $549 annual savings from switching to Nexa is real money — not reduced by state taxes.
Whether you call it billing, a tool for jobs, or a invoicing system — most pedicurists in Abilene piece together Vagaro, Acuity Scheduling, Square, HoneyBook and similar apps. That's $828/year paying for software subscriptions. In half a decade at today's prices, that bill reaches $4,140.
Nexa lets you break free from monthly fees. Your CRM, billing, scheduling, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — unified in one tool. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No copying between apps. No integration hacks. Zero integration overhead. It's a single payment — stop overpaying immediately. For pedicurists in Abilene weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
She seats the client, starts the warm soak, and the first thing she actually does is look, really look, at the feet, because feet hide things: a yellow thickened nail that screams fungus, a red swollen edge that's an ingrown going bad, the shiny tight skin of a diabetic who shouldn't have a callus aggressively cut. She knows the line she can't cross, she's a pedicurist, not a podiatrist, and part of the job is telling someone kindly that they need a doctor before she'll touch it. For healthy feet she clips and shapes the nails straight across to prevent ingrowns, eases back the cuticles, works the callus softener and rasps the heel smooth without going raw. She scrubs, massages the lower leg, the part clients live for, and lays down a clean polish. All of it from a low stool, bent over someone's feet, her back complaining by the third client. Between clients the real work nobody sees: every tool into disinfectant or the autoclave, the basin scrubbed and the jets flushed because a skipped cleaning is how infections spread and licenses get pulled. She tells the home-pedicure offender, gently, to stop attacking her own heels. She resets the towels, refills the oil, and rolls her shoulders before the next pair of feet.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a pedicurist's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a pedicurist — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
