My daughter was having toe pain for quite a while. I tried to get that dead, decrepit, ingrown toenail off..... to no avail.
I just knew, that my broke butt, would be taking her to a specialist to get it removed. But God!
I remembered that my mom had the same problem, and went to a nail salon to get it taken care of.
I searched high and low for an open nail place (including the one my mom went to.) It was almost 8:00 pm and nothing thisaway (yup, thisaway,) was open. I was like, bump it, I'll see if the one at Walmart can do it.
On my way to Walmart, I saw this nail salon. I looked in the door from my car, and it said they closed in 15 minutes.
We knocked on the door, because the technician had it locked. She was the only one there, so I didn't blame her.
When we went in, I told her my daughter was in pain and had an ingrown toenail. The technician said "they call me the foot doctor. I'll get it out for you." I looked at her, smiled, and did the little jiggle dance, that Shaq do on those commercials.
My daughter picked her color, got in the chair, and Lisa (the technician,) went to work. She got that stubborn, ingrown toenail out!
The technician and I, was having different conversations. One of which was if she wanted me to paint my daughter's finger nails. I told her no, because she bites them and it would be a waste of time and money.
Lisa's husband had walked in and waited for her to get off. He cleaned up the shop and such. He was so funny. He is the ghetto type funny, that just put a cherry on top of that night. He was great. Shoot, I'd go back just to be entertained by him.
After my daughter was finished, we was about to leave. I paid the money for the pedicure and left a $20 tip. As soon as Lisa saw the tip, she said to my daughter, "come sit down. Your mama took care of me, so I'mma take care of you."
The reason I was leaving a bigger tip than usual, was because she saved me money. It would have been exceptionally more, to take my daughter to a podiatrist.
Y'all, Lisa stayed until 9:15, giving my 10 year old daughter a manicure with gel polish. She hooked my daughter up! She said that the gel would last longer and give her a reason not to bite her nails. She was right. My daughter hasn't bitten her nails and has raved about it for the last week.
Thank you Lisa!!!! Exceptional customer service. I will be back once a month, to take my daughter to Lisa. read more
