do you tip your manacurist? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Fubarcdn · 01-22-2009, 04:26 PM

If you do you are probably in the wrong place.
No offence to any of you men that do get manicures.

dgillz · 01-22-2009, 04:30 PM

I can't even spell the word. I guess if I ever did, I would tip.

Bard · 01-31-2009, 03:45 PM

Oh you bet! Every Saturday after shopping and doing my buns of steel workouts I'm siting with my manucriest telling her all the gossip of the week!

But uh, no. In fact I never had a manicure done. Isn't that just a fancy way of clipping your nails and cutting off hang nails and digging crud out from under your nails?

Fubar! You are a girl and you're posting in the mens room!

This is verbotten!

Doug · 02-01-2009, 05:55 AM

Wouldn't know where to find one if I needed one, and can't imagine I'd ever want one. I've never taken my mother or wife to one, and doubt I'd go see one even on a dare. Hell I can't even type out a "sarcastic joke-I'll play along/gag" response about going to see one....

You might be a redneck if you have trimmed a bush into the shape of a naked woman.

Sad but true...

Backstory - been chewing my nails ever since I can remember. Very recently I stopped (2 weeks ago). I thought I could "treat myself" by maybe getting a manicure. Saw this thread and actually thought I would get some good info about tipping since I might be going in for one here in not too long. Silly me. Thread is full of smart-asses.

Who needs a manicure, when we have belt-sanders?

KenL · 02-17-2009, 04:12 PM

Hey firestorm that reminds me. I used to be a shop teacher and a kid did used one of the stationary belt sanders for just this purpose. Pretty gross from what I can remember. Damn rule breaker, I nearly threw up.

I'll never forget the feeling of 50 grit on my knuckles.

The sad part is, My wife is almost done with cosmetology school and I have been the Guinea pig the whole time, it seemed easier when I was drunk.
when she is done I tip her.

firestorm090 · 02-27-2009, 08:41 AM

Hardwired,

Considering that she is your wife, it is only prudent self-preservation to tip her, lol.

This is too funny

It's like I'm 12yrs old again, too funny. He said "naked woman", "trimmed" and "bush".

So glad this is a Men's Room. Guess I should rethink the quote below again.

Smart ass comment instead of letting Doug know that a girl is posting in the mens room

On topic though, I only know one guy who gets manicures he is the director at a major casino, he is 60 so don't know if this is an older thing to do? Why not tip them?!
