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!

Karen says
September 25th, 2010 at 9:09 pmMe neither! I might’ve done it if I didn’t already have my toenails done. 🙂

September 25th, 2010 at 9:10 pmNo kidding. I don’t even want to think of how long some of those toenails are.

September 25th, 2010 at 3:25 pmYup! 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
September 25th, 2010 at 9:11 pmYou’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!

September 25th, 2010 at 3:25 pmThat’s funny. It’s probably for men with pedicure envy. Ha!
Karen says
September 25th, 2010 at 9:13 pmIf 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
September 25th, 2010 at 4:14 pmHahaha-that’s funny! And you can only get then clipped if you get them massaged first!
Karen says
September 25th, 2010 at 9:14 pmWeird, right? What if you just wanted a plain old toenail clipping without the massage? They should hook that up, LOL!
Nina says
September 25th, 2010 at 5:00 pmPaying $15 to someone for toenail clipping? Really no 😀 Have fun at the show tomorrow!
Karen says
September 25th, 2010 at 9:15 pmI will, and I’ll be sure to take lots of pics. 🙂
Appu says
September 25th, 2010 at 8:09 pmI 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?? 😉

September 25th, 2010 at 9:15 pmGood eye! Yeah, that was a dude getting a good massage. Not sure if he ordered the toenail clipping service though, ha ha!

September 27th, 2010 at 8:34 amCan 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. 🙂
