Up until this annoying time of me unable to reach my toes to paint, I did my own. I don't know why almost all the folks that work there are Asian but they all seem very nice and I imagine they all have interesting stories to tell as to how they got to this place and work with so many Villagers, who I hope are nice to them.

P.S. It makes me very angry when I meet people who think all older people think and act the same...and worse are all dumb as rocks.
Most nail salons are family related, siblings, cousins, aunts and uncles. Each family makes sure every person who enters this country, goes to school gets their license to work at the shop. Most are Vietnamese. However here in TV I do my own. Up north I go to a spa that only uses certain products.

I used one popular nail salon in TV for a year, during that time I ended up with toenail fungus. It took my podiatrist a year to clear it up. At my due diligence I privately informed the owner of the salon. Sadly I was asked never to enter the business again.
