My mother went to you for a pedi????? LOL!! When clients tell me they have
ugly feet and they don't even want to show me them..... I tell them ...I guess
you haven't seen my Mom's feet! Poor gal she has what you described...twisted,
knarly toes, nails too thick to cut (I use my efile) corns, callouses,
bunions.....ahhh but they look so nice when she leaves and she is so happy!
Did you give this lady a pedi or just the consultation?

Subject: NailTech:: The Worst Toes Ever....
Okay Tech’s, this is my first posting. I have
commented on several but never posted. So here goes….I had an elderly
lady that came in today for a mani/pedi. She told me that she has some problems
with her toes and so I told her that I would help her out in every way that I
could. OMG….let me just say that I had never seen anything like what she
put up on that foot rest. Total mess. I don’t think that she had ever had
a pedicure in her life. Toes shaped every which way but straight and the
deepest ridges that I have ever=2
0seen. She told me that she likes her toe nails
really short and after looking at them I told her that her hyponychium was
really
high. I then advised her that I would trim down as far as I could but due to
hyponychium,
I was limited to how far I could trim. Okay….we got past that part and
she then advised me that she had several corns…several is an
understatement!!!!!!!!!!
I asked if she had seen a podiatrist for the excessive amount that she had…bless
her heart. (we say that a lot in the south).lolol She said that her
Dr. had told her that he would have to break all of her toes and re-set them in
order for her to get relief from the corns….cuz of the shape causes friction,
so CORNS, well, I never! Have ya’ll ever????? She then proceeded to ask
me to cut out all of the corns…I advised her that I would smooth them
best that I could using my exfoliation methods and some product to soften but I
would not cut them out. She became very upset with me stating that the was the
reason that she came in for her service cuz she’s heading to Chicago and will
be on her feet a lot. I advised her of what I could do to make her as
comfortable as possible and suggested that she have regular pedicures to help
her condition and recommended Dr. Sholls medicated corn pads and cushions.
So….what do ya’ll think?????
