These nail salons man…
I’ve been here for 4 years now and still haven’t found a nail salon that compares to ones on the east coast. Simple things like a French pedicure with a color base coat like a nude shade are clearly impossible for them to do.
Everywhere I go, they tell me they HAVE to do clear because they won’t be able to do the white French strip…um, what?
My entire life in NJ I have gotten a base color and it’s a VERY simple process—paint 1 set of toenails (and they usually have little portable fan blowing on it) and then move on to the other foot while that one is drying, then go back to the other foot for 2nd coat, then back to the other foot for 2nd coat, and in the meantime they are alternately drying. After both coats are applied, they do the French strip. Why is this so difficult out here??
And these salons have no drying stations either, what the hell is that about? No spray, no under the table foot fans, nothing. California is so much weirder than I expected.
Has anyone else out here had these experiences? Anyone know a really good nail salon to go to? I’m just about out of hope.
