A new client came in today, had heard great things about my salon. She had an almost perfect, 3 day old set of gel polish on (she wasn't sure what brand), with a couple of tiny chips. She is hard on her nails as she is in the cna field. Had nothing nice to say about her two previous salons. Complaints from the way her nails felt to the way they took them off. Was not happy about how long it took them to soak off (about 15 mins, which I explained to her so normal). When I soaked her gel polish off (for free) it came off easily with no scraping and her nails looked great afterwards. I applied black gelish, and glitter on her ring fingers, even applied a free lacy stamp over the top of the glitter fingers for free as a new customer gift! She texted me later saying they were flawed, she wasn't satisfied, and that she would like a refund. I replied that I would soak them off and apply it again the next day no charge. She went off on a rant about how terrible they looked and that she liked them better before. I explained that we replace and fix but do not do refunds. She said literally "well you should because you suck haha. Dude at least get a better light or a bigger window. They look great inside" I said "thank you I appreciate that comment, have a great afternoon and haven't answered her back. She's pestered me all afternoon. She asked if I'm my own great manager and said she would like to speak to one about getting her money back. I still haven't answered her because I know I'll say something I shouldn't, especially because I am the manager. What should I do?
