When I was waiting for my flight out of San Francisco, I passed something I’d never seen before in an airport at a little spa called Xpress.
They offer the usual spa services like massages, manicures, pedicures, stuff like that, but also something that was a regular kick in the pants. They’ll even clip your toenails…for $15 (on top of the cost of a foot massage). Fo’ serious! You REALLY gotta have scary long toenails to spend $15 to have ’em cut at an airport, LOL! I’d rather wait till I arrived at my destination and buy a $3 pair of clippers.
Hmm, I wonder if the TSA ever orders people to do it. Yeah, that would be a little embarrassing. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Zzzz… It’s just after 11:30PM here, and tomorrow’s the day of the big show. Time for sleep!
Nina says
Thats funny! Ive seen shoeshines and chair massages but never toenail service! 😀
Karen says
Me neither! I might’ve done it if I didn’t already have my toenails done. 🙂
Nina says
LOL youre funny. iono if im ready to bare my all (toes, that is) at an airport kiosk! 😛
marisol says
Never seen that before. Pretty scary and what a sucky job.
Have fun at the show tomorrow!
Karen says
No kidding. I don’t even want to think of how long some of those toenails are.
yiota says
Yup! We have that at our airport.. I don’t know who would get a massage BEFORE a flight.. I’d need one after! loll
Karen says
You’re so funny! Come to think of it, I can never relax before a flight. I’m fine once I’m in the chair and buckled in, but I’m always paranoid about not being able to get on the plane on time!
Solé says
That’s funny. It’s probably for men with pedicure envy. Ha!
Karen says
If you look closely at the top pic you can actually see a dude laying down and getting his foot massage on! I should’ve asked him if he paid the $15 for the toenail clipping service, ha!
Tracy says
Hahaha-that’s funny! And you can only get then clipped if you get them massaged first!
Karen says
Weird, right? What if you just wanted a plain old toenail clipping without the massage? They should hook that up, LOL!
Nina says
Paying $15 to someone for toenail clipping? Really no 😀 Have fun at the show tomorrow!
Karen says
I will, and I’ll be sure to take lots of pics. 🙂
Appu says
I can actually see in the picture that there is someone sitting inside on the massage chair 🙂 Wonder if he/she is getting their toe nail clipped?? 😉
Karen says
Good eye! Yeah, that was a dude getting a good massage. Not sure if he ordered the toenail clipping service though, ha ha!
Stavroula Plag says
LOOOOOOOL amazing!!! Have fun at the show! 😉
Ania says
jupi, finally you have the same time as me:) regards from Poland
K says
Isn’t that normally included in a standard pedicure? Weird.
Khalia says
HA!! That’s a trip!!!
Kim says
Can you imagine the discussion that must have taken place about pricing this service? Should it be a flat $1.50 per toe or should we tier it based on the size of the customer’s toe claws? Aw, to heck with it. Let’s just charge them 15 bucks and call it a day. Yeah, and make them get the massage too. 🙂
