| - Two stars. Two lone, twinkling emblems of success or lack thereof.
Before I explain why, I have something to confess - this is where I always get my monthly pedicure because it's right next to Albertson's so I can take care of my tootsies and conveniently zip next store to buy my groceries.
Convenience is the only reason I return to Pink Lotus month after month, and have done so for the past three years or so. However - if you are not already swinging by Albertson's for crates of Ramen, six-packs of Diet Coke, and other single-girl fare like me don't bother. Go somewhere else! Don't be like me and create a convenient, long-standing bad habit of wasting your money.
Sure, my toes always look cute and happy at the end but each time I walk in I'm playing Russian Roulette! They have a few great nail techs, but every now and then I end up with a complete sadist who loves nothing more than to cut, pinch, scrape, and abuse my little feetsies any way she can! I never complain, so that's my fault. I'd rather do the passive aggressive thing and join yelp so I can complain in safety. If I consistently had nice techs who were kind to my feet rather than cruel, they'd get a another star or two.
I think what really brought this all to a head (or to a FEET, get it?), was getting my brows waxed there last Friday ended up being an ordeal worthy of an episode of "I Survived." I've not had a bad brow wax there - painful pedicure occasionally, but the brow waxing was always quick and painless. Well, this time I was drug back to the waxing station by a tiny little woman who managed to mash my eyeball so far into my skull I thought I'd be seeing out my neck for awhile. This was so strange! I've never had a waxing that involved the tech touching my eye, let alone mashing it in with her thumb like she was practicing some sort of self-defense tactics. In case of sudden attack - mash your aggressor's eyeball with thumb! To be clear, I wasn't attacking. I was laying on the table, a willing victim to this hot-wax wielding troll. What's more, is I actually had burn marks on my brows. That's never happened before! What did she wax me with? Acid? Sweet lord, I'm just glad it's over. The things we ladies do to avoid a mangy eyebrow hairs.
Maybe this time I'll learn my lesson and not go back. Probably not though. I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment...and I have to get my Diet Coke right?
