When Sonia E. Wilson went to get a pedicure on the Fourth of July, she didn’t expect to wait at her neighborhood salon, figuring most women had rushed to get their nails done before the holiday.
Women weren’t the problem. The Brooklyn, N.Y., salon was packed with men.
Ms. Wilson learned she was fourth in line after three men—all having pedicures. “I don’t mind men stepping up their grooming,” said Ms. Wilson, a development officer at Medgar Evers College in Brooklyn. “But I can’t say I was happy to wait close to an hour while three of them were ahead of me. I gave them the side-eye.”

It’s called an “appointment”, Ms. Wilson. Try making one sometime.

Back of the bus, boys!
Snowflakes gotta look good from their “man bun” to their toe nails when they take their “selfies”.
LOL
Is “the side-eye” a mini-aggression?
I will bet each of those “men”
- votes social-communist
- does not work with his hands
- supports abortion
- goes to a hairdressor/salon
- shaves his chest and legs
- wears tight-legged jeans
- could find the right end of a steel-toed boot if the instructions were written on the bottom
Remember that homo in Vancouver....waiter in a tea house, that was fired for refusing to serve someone in a MAGA hat? One of his FB posts was complimenting another guy on his eyebrows. “ right c*ntly brows, bro”. Sometimes you just have to laugh.
As an old-fart diabetic, pedicures are cheaper than going to the podiatrist when I need my toenails trimmed.
I just don’t get those other things done...
There is a Seinfeld in here, but I just can’t right now.
I do it. My toes are, well..., I’ll let you figure it out.
It’s easier to have someone else do it. They soak my feet in a warm whirlpool-like footbath. They trim all the nails, scrub off any calluses, give me one hell of a nice foot massage, apply some kind of non-smelly lotion. Of course, no nail polish either!
I tip the person well. She’s Asian and is not a great conversationalist (her English is frickin’ terrible) - but I’m OK with that. I’m not there for ladies chit-chat.
My feet feel really great afterwards. I’d encourage every guy to get one done. And no, you don’t have to turn in your Man Card if you have one done.
A lot of the nail salons don’t take appointments for pedicures. Just nails. The one I go to doesn’t. But I know which days and times to stay away. I have started seeing men in there getting pedicures...but usually they’re older. Haven’t seen any young ones yet.
Russians/Chinese have no worries.
All the need to do is wait a few decades when the majority of American “men” get pedicures and man-buns and just walk in and take over the US. There won’t be anyone to fight them.
“The salon was packed with men.”
That is highly doubtful. Those aren’t men.
Nice nails, though.
hey I got my husband to get 1 pedicure, and he has not looked back. He needs to take care of his feet!! I am happy he does it.
I know about the toenail trim problem. As an old fart I can’t reach them to cut them. Fortunately my wife does it for me. But I am still able to trim my own fingernails.
