Mom & I did the mother/daughter mani/pedi day this past weekend and it was very relaxing...once it was our turn. Honestly, I don't think my time is any more valuable than yours but I draw the line at waiting over an hour. Now, this is not my normal nail salon but my mother is a regular. However, the last several times I've been with her, the wait has been excruciatingly long. How long? Well, we sat with our toes in that clear blue water and our butts vibrating in the chair for so long that Mom's massage chair actually started smoking. Oh, Mom! Why do you enjoy embarrassing me so much in public?! Yes! Mom had to sit in the massage chair that would malfunction. O.k. So it probably wasn't my lovely mother's fault but...we certainly lost that relaxing feeling. Yikes! By that time, the couple in charge was anxious to get us taken care of (and outta there before Mom broke anything else!). We got nice pedis (I chose OPI's That's Berry Daring) and wonderful manis (boring clear polish for my hands). Mom went wild and chose a neutral pink. "Are your nails even polished?" But, hey...she liked the color and that's all that matters. Overall, service is friendly and the price is right. As for the wait? Mom may have more patience than me cuz I'm not willing to wait that long next time AND I don't think the owners of this salon can afford to lose another chair.
P.S.--Mom is beautiful. She's not overweight and doesn't normally go around destroying people's property. In all fairness to my lovely mother, I think the chair was already on the outs.
