I've been a couple of times, and the experience was uneventful. The most recent time I stopped in was an absolute disappointment, to say the least.
Basic pedicure is what I asked for: the pedicurist begins using the dead skin grater/microplane. She decides to use it on the side of my big toe, more toward the top of the toe and slices my toe right open. She looks at me sheepishly, and then tries to stop the bleeding. It's a big cut so it doesn't stop, so she calls over another employee and I assume they are going to say, 'we're sorry, pedicure is on us' and then disinfect/bandage up my toe. No, they bring over this green bottle, and without warning, without asking me whether I'm allergic to anything, drop this glue thing into my cut. The woman next to me has right before warned me it would burn, and she enough, it did, a lot. It doesn't stop the bleeding so the pedicurist tries to apply more; I say, no, and she proceeds to try anyway. I repeated myself, no, I do not want that anymore. Finally, she understands and does not try again. The cut is still bleeding, at this point.
The rest of the pedicure is mostly uneventful (a guy takes over and is checking his phone instead of doing the rest of the pedicure making it take way longer than it should- awesome), except that, after cutting my toe, causing it to bleed without stopping, when I go up to pay, what do they say? "Sorry." Then charge me full price.
Cut to a day later- the cut is still bleeding. Because of the placement of the cut, I can't move my big toe without opening the cut even more. It will probably require a stitch to close up. So, yes, my basic pedicure is going to turn into a doctor visit and medical bills.
So much for a relaxing pedicure. Read Less
