Just once I'd like for people who work in Nail salons to SPEAK ENGLISH!!!!! How hard is it to understand that I'd like to get prices for your services since your particular Salon does not have a website!!! Trying to find a good place to get my wife and daughters feet done and my wifes legs massaged and pampered since she's 8 months pregnant.... I looked on here and Called Diva Nail salon, was referred to Top Nail, and yet neither of them spoke English well enough to understand my questions. Is Cindi's the same way???? I'll find out in a minute! But any other suggestions from you ladies would be welcome! Here's what I'm looking for... A place that will massage my wifes legs, ankles and feet. Will do a complete pedicure of hers, my daughters, and my wife's friends feet, with scrubs and all. Looking to spend about 35 on my daughter and wife's friend and 50 on my wife (since she'll be getting the extra stuff) Anyone know of a place that speaks English and can answer my questions? Please Help me out!
Sorry I couldn't resist, Anjelah Johnson (comedian) and her nail salon act cracks me up every time. Thought of it as I read your post! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzHihzsdTAE
:lol: I understand what you mean. It is hard to communicate at many nail salons. I will say, although they didn't understand you, that Diva Nails does all that you're looking for. They will show you a list of different pedicures offering different services and prices. That way you can just point and say "that one." :mrgreen:
I asked one of the ladies at White Oak which day is their slowest and she said "sorry we don't have that". Tee Hee.
I use one of the salons at White Oak. They do speak English and do a great job, but it totally annoys me when they have conversations with each other in their native tongue the whole time I'm getting my pedicure. I think it's rude.
I forgot there was more than one. I went to the one near the Credit Union. Blabbing on the cell phone annoys me a bit.
Give the folks at My Girlfriend's Place in Clayton a call. I bet they can help you. http://mygirlfriendsplace.vpweb.com/Services.html
Just for the record, I have NEVER had a decent pedicure or eyeborw wax from anyone that was American, never. Just sayin' 8)
Oh girl, you read my mind. But then again, I don't sweat this kind of thing. I don't care what they say about me to each other or if they don't speak clear English for that matter as long as they do a good job and it's affordable :cheers:
EXACTLY. Talk any language you want, just make sure my cuticles are pushed back and don't cut my toenails too short. and they know what "no cut" means. :lol::lol: :cheers: (and I meant 'eyebrow' in my last post, y'all prolly figured that out)
If you haven't already found what you're looking for, Living Social has a good deal, for your wife anyway, not sure what the price would be for the other services you're looking for. But it is in North Raleigh, so that might not be too convenient. http://livingsocial.com/deals/64639?msdc_id=45&ref=RALDeal082411_45_9060email http://watuwazurimassage.com/index.html
Thanks all. I'm gonna try Alison hair and nails in clayton....reasonable, and she spoke clear english on the phone! Plus she offers discounts to military and mommy's to be. Anyone every use that salon?
Alison's Salon and Nails is in the yellow house located behind McCalls Parking lot and across from Burger King. If you come from the Wendy's and take that shortcut behind Burger king to get to the redlight at 70, it's right in front of you. Sonya (or maybe Sonja pronounced Sawn-ya) is the pedicurist. If Irene holds off enough I'll let you know how the wife and daughter enjoyed it.... phone is 919 585 6189 Oh and they have a website... http://allisonssalon.com/ Oops, my mistake no discount for Military (though i'm sure if you asked they might!) but they do offer these 10% off for all Seniors, Expecting Moms, College Students and Teachers with I.D.
