Nie Qinghe offered hair-styling services to middle-class ladies at a negotiated price of five coins per session, significantly cheaper than the Dressing Pavilion's minimum of twenty coins. She planned to use this to build her reputation, expand her client base, and then sell them new hairstyles, jewelry, shampoo, skincare, and cosmetics. For wedding hairstyling, she would charge over a hundred coins for the day.
