So I was doing this lovely ladies Shellac nails a couple of days ago. I had previously explained to her what I was doing (my Level 3) and what treatments I was training in. About 10 minutes later she was looking at her nails and said "Do you have to do exams for this then?".
Nowww. She didn't say it in a particular bitchy way and I'm sure she didn't mean to offend but YESSSS! It annoys me when people don't realise the hard work that goes into it and what you have to remember... parts of the nail plate, bones, muscles, lymph nodes etc.
I guess people just think its painting nails, pretty easy job. Ahh never mind.
While I'm on the subject of ranting why do people think its ok when they get a manicure to keep their hands as close to them as possible??
Surely they can see my arms stretched across the table and don't get me started on thumbs!! Why do people point their thumbs up in the air so that they see more nail than me, whilst I'm painting them? Even when I politely ask them to relax their hand and point their thumbs down they continue to do it as if they are carefully watching every stroke I make on the nail whilst my body is stretched across the table trying to see the other side of their thumb!
Now of course not everyone is like this, but I'm sure they are aware Ive got cramp when they see the pain on my face when trying to paint a simple thumb nail?
So please next time you have a manicure, for the love of god relax that hand! :)
