Suh it run inna fimmi naybah hood!

Mi lucky - mi know!

And the thing is - they do a dang good job!

I love it!

So after about 4 years of trying to get my husband to go get his nails done - I WIN!

Nothing outrageous of course - just a nice clean up of both hands and feet. Cut, trim, file, clean etc.

<span style="font-weight: bold">NO CLEAR POLISH</span>! <span style="font-style: italic">(I hate that mess and don't even understand why a man would need clear polish)</span>

So now he goes - even on his own sometimes - and actually enjoys it.

I'm trying to now get him to leave a tip.

HE'S NOT HAVIN' IT!

Mi feel bad fi di girl dem whe werk deh yuh si!

I tell him to just leave even $2.

Nope.

Nadda.

Mi shame feem.

Wemmi fi do?

explain to him that they do not get the entire amount of what the cost is, that goes to the shop and they get a small cut like a penny or something.

Re: How Much Do You Leave?

another option may be to just go behind him and tip the manicurist. this is easily done when you are both getting your mani same time.


Pepper out here the going rate is at least $25 fi a pedi

and $50 fi a spa pedi

Or you can show him this thread. BTW what is his reasoning for not wanting to tip?

Keyer, $50 fi a spa pedi!!! Is what so special dem do mek di price double?

Here the usual rate is $20 fi pedi and $25 fi spa pedi. Some places charge the same price for spa pedi.
