Renee, if you will privately send me the salon name and address I
will call State Board myself. Sometimes I hear of these things and
the nail tech doesn't want their name mentioned. Or the client
doesn't want to get involved. But atleast the board can be aware of
this and maybe send an inspector in to check things out. Yes it
would be ideal to have proof of this from the clients, but it doesn't
always happen. But this is serious!! diana from indiana

Okay, get this....I got a new client yesterday. She was 16 and was
getting ready to be on her homecoming court. She wanted a pedi, full
set and makeup done. So when I got ready to do her full set, she
shows me the nail on her middle finger and said that she had no
feeling in it at all, and it had obviously endured some kind of
major trauma. She said she had gone to one of the NSS here in town
to get her acrylics removed (this was several months ago). They, of
course, pulled out the pliers to pry them off. She questioned them
about it and they said it was "the natural way" to remove the
acrylics. They said that acetone would dry her nails out. So of
course, it only stands to reason that you would just pry them off
with pliers, right?And they pried off her whole fingernail right
along with the friggin acrylic! She said she jerked away and it was
just hanging off, bleeding, etc. She walked out and never went back.
That was the second client I've ever had that literally had nails
pulled completely off by them when they were going to remove
acrylic. The other gal was a nurse and they pulled THREE of hers
off!!! Completely off--the index, middle and ring fingers. She said
she nearly passed out. I couldn't imagine sitting there letting
someone do that! The first one, I could see them doing something you
weren't prepared for, but to let them do TWO MORE?????? gawld!
Anyway, that was a new one for me----"the natural way". They
actually said that! And said it was "healthier for your nails" to
pry them off like that, because acetone---that evil
substance---would dry your nails out.
