ATHLETES FOOT. I had never had a foot fungus, and a couple days after a mani pedi, I noticed the beginnings of athletes foot. I have been fighting it for a month, and it just claimed my baby toenail. My nails turned out flawless when I got them done, but the lack of cleanliness of the salon is not worth it. They shared files and pummus stones between customers without sanitation in between, and there was nail dust all over the tables.
