Just had a pedicure and gel manicure at a spa in a local boutique hotel, used a voucher I received from friends as a present and top up of my own money to pay for it (£85 total).
Therapist was lovely, really nice. I spent the whole time chatting. She did my feet first and I went for a normal polish, and they looked great. She then did my hands in gel. After she finished my hands she said she wanted to check if my feet were dry and said they were. She asked what shoes I was wearing and I said converse with socks, I asked her if I was alright to put them on and she said yes.
Just got home and the polish is completely ruined on my feet. Some of it has slid off, there is a sock imprint over all of it and the skin around my nails has been covered by the paint that’s been wet. I will need to take the polish off completely.
Do I complain? I really hate complaining and I wouldn’t want to get the therapist in trouble as she is new, and I know it wasn’t intentional. At the same time I had the pedicure to wear open toe shoes out tonight and I now have to redo my own feet which will undoubtedly look shit as I am terrible at doing my own nails. First world problem I know, I just don’t want to complain if it has any chance of affecting the therapist being permanently hired, as it’s not worth it if so.. is it my own fault for not checking if dry myself?
