Nail Artists Share Their Horror Stories

everything started flying and as you know, I have Dodge. I'm AM B. I'm a manicurist in Whittier, California. I've been doing

nail

s for about five years and more recently in the last year I've been running my business and sending emails and nugs, so for a few years I worked in a salon. I had a repeat client who came in honestly, probably every couple of months, not very often. She only came to see me when she had a good deal. She was the kind of person she wasn't. Like Western medicine, she didn't like going to the doctor.

She greatly believed in the power of positive thinking. She also had a terrible, terrible, terrible, disgusting fungus on all ten of her toes. When I started giving her a pedicure, I told her. I told him he could go to the doctor and take pills and you know, get rid of them. She basically told me thanks, but no thanks. I have been healing this with the power of essential oils and I am going to manifest this into healing. I don't know how to say no to this woman and looking back these were the first few years I was doing

nail

s and I should have told her I can't do your nails but I didn't.

I continued seeing her for years. I think back to three years and her toes kept getting worse and worse when it comes to toe fungus. What we learned in school is that it starts in yellow and ends in black, so it goes from yellow to green and from brown to black. I watched this woman's toes go through the entire process. She was really trying to imply things to him like, please, she stop making me do her toes. She would tell him that she's okay, you'll have to bring your own tools because I can. You didn't disinfect your tools with my other clients' tools and nothing fazed her and she kept coming at me while her toenails disintegrated.

Plus, she only tipped me no more than a dollar or two. Hi, I'm a son, also known as a nail bandit. I've been doing nails. He was six years old. I work in a salon. I work a lot as a freelancer. I do a lot of fashion magazine covers behind the scenes and I worked at this salon in Hawaii. I just graduated from nail school and I was, you know, in the enter the photo hair trim your toenails file the shape with us in the preparation stage at the beginning of the service like I relaxed or started cutting the toenails and you know, usually when you cook your nails or cut any artificial, no, everything is just beginning I was flying and, as you know, I was avoiding the tips of the nails, I was like cutting, you know, try to press me and not hit my face , after that, later customers like her would start jumping and I would say, are you okay?

Do you want me to grab you? something I should say no, I just don't know what it is, but it's really irritating, it was taking a while. I looked out, I'm like hair and they might look into your eyes, but she opened her eyes. I was like, oh my God. Yeah, I said, “Oh my God, can you take it out?”, so I took it out. She was quite nice when she was in school. The school she attended was right down the street from a retirement home. Our entire practice was in the 80s and 90s. year old men and women a gentleman came in to get a pedicure and I was signed up to give him the pedicure and he had come in with a white and wine tennis suit and sat down, took off his shoes and he put his feet and I put one foot out and I started and I put it back and then I lifted his other foot.

I'm basically knee level with him, so when I lifted his another foot out of the water I noticed something fell out, one of his testicles. When I got out of his tennis shorts I didn't know what to do, I completely ignored him and continued doing his cure in bed and to this day I don't know if he was just a sweet old man who just had no idea his were out or if he was a creep I hope it's not that one, but it could be that she had this gig she was calling to do an in-house service for a client flying in from Miami and she was looking for a non-artist at night because they had some kind of music awards or something like that and she needs to be ready.

They called me and I went up to her room and you know, I sat down and she had cool nails like Longclaw, but you thought her carbine nose was long, she was longer. she was working, I realized I noticed one nail was lifting up, it was like flapping and I was like, oh what is that? She was going to fall off like she was like talking to me and then I look underneath, I can see her nail bed is like yellow. and dirty and you know, I loved this color and I thought she didn't have any infection under that particular one that she was picking up.

I can't give that diagnosis because I'm not a doctor. Okay, I'm just not an artist. You know, I asked her what happened to this now and she said it was like that. I've been going to the same lady in Miami for a while and she told me she's fine and I told her that's bad, no. I'm really afraid to file it because I don't know it could fall and I'll be fine. It was very awkward and very uncomfortable because I wish she would tell me that she had a problem with her nail so I can't come.

Get ready, I don't want my stuff to turn to tabs and then make sure all my clients' nails start falling out. Humanity has some kind of fungus. Something strange is happening that is not normal. It's usually not supposed to work. them, but I'm like a student here, you know I made it work and you know I did my best in the taxi, but to this day I wonder if the grades are okay. I hope they have now been diagnosed and treated.
