So, I am all about coupons. I bought a deal the other day for a mani/ pedi for an amazing price and I have been really looking forward to using it. I went yesterday for my appointment, and needless to say it was QUITE interesting.
I walk in and there is only one technician lady who has a little station set up in the back of a chiropractor's office. There was NO whirlpool and NO massaging chair. Fail. She told me that the whirlpools are just a "pool of germs" and she does not use them. Then she told me, "First, I am going to do an analysis of your feet and then I will go ahead with the pedicure." My first thought is "Lady, I don't care for any analysis of my feet. I just came her for a relaxing pedicure." Then she looked at my toes and said: "Oh my, did you have something traumatic happen in your life 6 - 9 months ago?" Ok, this is just getting weird. I said: "Actually, yes. Both 6 and 9 months ago." She told me: "Yes, your feet are the window to your soul." Awkward. She then proceeded to ask me my whole life story and tell me that I have a calcium and vitamin B deficiency due to the stress I went through 6 - 9 months ago. She told me I need to be on dietary supplements, etc... Then, she decided to give me advice on my life issues that I really didn't care to hear. Again, I go back to my same point. I came here for a relaxing pedicure, not for a counseling session! Who is this lady??
All that to say, I was there for 2 hours spilling my guts to this random lady. It was not relaxing per say, and was the weirdest mani/ pedi I have had in my whole life. But my nails & toenails look pretty, if that counts for anything?! Hey, at least I got a good deal, right ? =)
