I have just had a phone call off a relative of mine, asking for my advice on her nails.
As you all prob know I don't do nails, so feel I am unable to help.
So I thought yu geeks may be able to help me to advise her.
Yesterday, she went into her local vietnamese salon for a pedicure. Her appointment was for 9.30 a.m. She arrived at 9.35 5 mins late.
The chinese woman shouted at her, and said 'You are late' Blah blah blah, she intimidated her and the client apologised and said okay its fine' I will leave the pedicure', and turned to leave the salon. The chinese woman yelled 'NO sit down'.
She booked for a pedicure and leg massage.
She took her into the kitchen to do them. The massage was virtually non-existent, and she said the tech was on the telephone talking in chinese all the time she was in there(25 mins). She had the phone wedged between her shoulder and ear. She said she was in a foul mood and was extremely rough with her.
She said there were last nights dinner plates all still piled up with old food still on the plates, and old food on the surfaces. Also she said the bin was so overflowed the contents were on the floor. It was filthy dirty.
They used a scalpel she said to cut the hard skin off her heels , and CUT her heels really bad, so bad she can hardly put her feet to the floor this morning.
She said her heels were bleeding, and the end the tech bunched all the tools up in her hand, dipped them into the water which her feet had been soaking in and put them back onto the table ready for the next customer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The chinese woman told her she was going to do white tips on toes. which was fine cos thats what she wanted, and then she said I will do black design on big toe. Client said: I dont want black. I want a pink design.
The chinese woman replied with a huff ' I will do black and pink then'!!! So she did.
She said at the end the tech grabbed clients handbag and threw it across the room to where there was a chair and said 'SIT'. She had to wait for them to dry. Then another client jumped in the pedicure seat!!
Meanwhile a massive argument broke out with two other techs (a chinese man and a chinese woman), she said they were screaming at each other, and halfway through the argument the woman stopped and said to the clients ' sorry ladies', then proceeded to continue with the argument all in chinese dialogue of course.
How bad is this??? I know it sounds extreme but its true.
All this for £25 .00 . 25 mins of hell.
Anyway today they are furious, and have asked me who they should report them to???????????????????
I said I think Health and Safety at the environmental Health - is that correct??
Sorry this is a very long read.
ANYWAY ON A POSITIVE NOTE I AM SO GLAD I AM BOOKED IN WITH LADYBGEMINI ON TUESDAY TO GET MY NAILS DONE! Cant wait.
