Wow! salon pedicure

Last night i went to get a pedicure at Wow! Salon dona soledad. This being a budget salon, i wasn't expecting much. And that was exactly what i got.

Upon entering the salon i looked around for some friendly service. Sitting on the couch at the entrance two lady employees with bloodshot eyes stated back at me without bothering to get up from their sloutch. I realize i came in just before closing, but there were still customers having their hair cut and nails done, so i decided to ask for a pedicure.

For P60 you can have your nails butchered and bleeding at this salon. No prep or cleaning of your feet your manicurist will go straight to cutting your nails while you sit on a soft black faux leather chair with holes in it you can see the stuffing. After cutting, she applies a white cuticle cleaner and proceeds to clean your nails with a metal stick and brush the dirt off with a pink stained nail brush. I'm a little concerned for my health right now and feel tempted to ask her if she has sanitized that stick after using it on the last customer. I don't see any sterilizers anywhere. Oh i miss you California Nail Spa.

Next, she takes the cuticle cutter and shapes the nails taking along any skin that gets in the way. The toe beside my pinkie toe is bleeding now. She finishes off by leaving an even bigger wound on the big toe on my right and gets up to leave.

What,no nail polish?

Next time, i'm going to Index salon. At least there you get nail polish.
