Hi everyone,
I am sorry but i need to semi vent to all of you. i had a client come in a while back for shellac with terrible nails as a result of removing acrylics, she wanted to try Shellac. I told her that it might not last the 14days, that before this she should try and get her nails healthy again etc. she said she understood and we parted ways both happy. TURNS OUT! she has been telling her friends (who come to the gym i rent a space in) that my shellac service was so terrible that it damaged her nails. EXCUSE ME!!!! i didn't even touch your freaking nails, your discount salon acrylic nails did! ugh!
Now this is 4months ago, she has the nerve to walk into my spa today! and ask if i had time to do a shellac manicure on her. i basically told her she had a lot of nerve to come into my spa again after almost ruining my reputation in a new location! she apologized and told me she was going through a hard time blah blah blah and also told me she retracted her comment about shellac to her friends. i told her it doesnt matter, i will not take her because of it, she understood and asked about the shellac since she had it done at another local spa 2weeks ago. i told her if you have already have it then you know the info but i am more then happy (not really) to answer any questions. she BARGES!!! into my room and takes a look at my colors and lamp, this is what she said next
"oh you don't have a lot of colors, thats too bad. (turns to look at my mani table and lamp) oh what kind of lamp is that, thats not what the other spa uses, how could you use a none cnd lamp?!"
i got so upset! i told her my lamp is a certified CND Shellac Lamp and showed her, also told her the other salon used the wrong lamp with the system. she interrupts me and says "oh you don't know what your talking about, your a liar"
OHHHH!!!!! needless to say i KICKED HER OUT after that comment!!!! sorry for the rant ladies
Now the thing is if she talks to her friends again (which are 20 of my clients), what do i do? some of them are good clients and i cant really afford to go back to what happened the last time she "talked"
