Incident date 11/13/23@ KING NAILS SPA9501 N Council Rd, Oklahoma City, OK 73162 (NW Expressway and Council)(Nail salon story below)Before I get to the story. First let me say, ladies please be careful where you get your nails done. In the state of Oklahoma it is Illegal to use cheese graters on clients feet during a pedicure. Alot of nail salons will tell you this is okay and it is absolutely NOT OKAY! (Your calluses will come back even harder, which in return keeps you coming back to them) and again, these are against state board regulations and prohibited to use.Also, pumice stones are for single use only! If it looks dented in (It's probably been used). Its impossible to get other peoples dead skin out of it and it can't be disinfected!As licensed Cosmetologist/Nail Techs that actually love what they do, we educate our clients to keep them safe and we don't cut corners by reusing stuff that can harm our clients or use stuff that is illegal and can cause infections, and damage! Now quit letting folks hack up your feet and butcher your nails, we need to speak up more ladies.... nails cost too dang much to be accepting this kind of behavior.NAILS SALON OWNERS, DO BETTER! (Story behind video)I went in for a full set and pedicure. I received my full set first. The nail tech lady who serviced me and did my full set was an absolute sweetheart and did a great job.My pedicure was done by a different nail technician. The lady used dirty unsanitary nail files on me and as she reaches down to grab the cheese grater, she's pouring out compliments telling me how pretty I am, then proceeds to pull out a prohibited tool from off the floor... After alot of her pulling my leg and me saying 'It's okay' idk how many times... She finally let me go, said something in Vietnamese to a guy and then he came up to me. I told him I was okay with paying for the service I received which was my full set and I also included a tip.... but we both agreed I wasn't paying for that pedicure. I left with buff marks in my toe nails, wet shoes because I just hoped out that pedicure chair...When I got up to the register to check out, the front desk lady asked to speak with me. I was very quiet and was really just trying to get out of there without causing a scene, I said what I needed to say and was going to contact the board and let them deal with it. But this lady insisted I spoke with her. I tell her what happened while trying to find all my words, and trying not to have a panic attack. As I continue to record for my safety, you hear me in the video explaining now for the 3rd time why I feel uncomfortable. The receptionist apologized to me multiple times and offered a $5 discount off my full set. As I finish up paying I ask the receptionist if the nail technician who serviced my pedicure was licensed and asked to see her license. As I go over there to view it and get her license number, they had trouble finding her at first and then I turn around and 4 workers are behind me. This is when they got mad and asked me to leave.... so I did exactly that.Fast forward 30 minutes... I'm spread out like a star fish in a tanning bed with 7 minutes left to go and my overthinking tail remembered I left my dang gel nail polish up at the salon. I was trying to get up out that pedicure chair pronto and I forgot to ask for it back... I went back up there and politely asked for my nail polish back (It was giving 'Red' from Friday, when Debo took his bike kinda energy) had me in there like "hubby trippin, he told me to come ask for my gel nail polish back". Jkjk Just embarrassing mannn. Anyways they continued to talk in Vietnamese and kept asking what I needed. I directed them to speak to the man who was behind them multiple times because he was the one I gave my color to. As he goes to grab my color, I step back to the side and out the way while waiting patiently and quietly. The lady comes from behind the front desk and tells me to leave the store. I'm going to be honest, I just acted like I didn't understand her and continued to stand there waiting for my personal belongings. As the guy walks up with my nail polish he's ripping the paper off the nail box (They just had a label on it with my name and number) while walking me to the door... smh I wasn't going to put this on social media at first, but since they wanna call the police here you go. I tried to leave it alone at the salon and they kept pressing me about it. Now I have police officers calling me from private numbers and telling me that I'm banned from a nail salon. All because I called them out for doing illegal shit.... Ladies and gentlemen you pay way too much for your nails to be getting a hand me down foot scrubber, that's nasty!!! read more
