Today, I decided to treat myself to a pedicure ahead of my cousin's wedding. The woman doing my nails asked if I wanted my toe hairs trimmed. I was so taken aback and embarrassed that I said yes. They charged me extra. FML

No shame in having a little toe hair! I let them cut mine too when I get my pedi, but they don't charge me extra! That is a little much! Enjoy your pretty toes OP!

Everyone has toe hair OP. Nothing to be ashamed of.

Especially since they should have let OP know that they would charge extra for it!

Yes, pretty much everyone has some toe hair, mine is black like my hair on my head! Don't be insecure, let it be trimmed and it's no big deal:) But that is kinda unusual to have that be an extra charge!

I dye mine blue, just to keep them wondering.

I'm gonna do that next time, 35! Lol

That happens to me too!! I can never understand what they are saying so I just nod and the bill goes up... :(

Looks like you might have been ripped off there OP.

Show it anyway

They asked if she wanted an extra service, she said yes, they charged her for the extra service. Where's the problem?

They always do that at beauty salons. They ask you like it's free when it's not. That's why you should always ask the price before saying yes.

I meant that trimming toe hairs doesn't seem like a usual service (given the OP's reaction)

I was tricked at a strip club like that once. "Hey, want a lap dance?" "Umm, sure." -gives me two, & when finished says- "40$ bucks a pop" Then again, my naïveté may have gotten the best of me. I thought she liked me.

Everyone has toe hair OP. Nothing to be ashamed of.

I think it might just be a standard option with the pedicure, not the beautician remarking on how hairy OP's toes are.

#41, I never said the beautician said OP had hairy toes. I said the OP thought the beautician said she had hairy toes. Damnit Kim, get your shit together.

I think everyone has toe hair... I do. But I shave it. I'm surprised they charged you extra. So FYL for the extra charge. But I wouldn't worry about the toe hair. It's normal. Just shave it when you shave your legs.

I can picture my chopped off toe after I attempted to shave it. *shudders* I suck at shaving non-smooth places. The tops of my knees always have peach-fuzz cause I'm too scared I'm gonna end up cutting myself and bleeding to death.

Spend more than $1 on a razor and you won't have that problem!

47 shaving your knees with them bent fully stretches out the skin and makes it easier to shave. Shaving with your leg extended is difficult.

Is this really common to have hairy feet? My husband has a little but I didn't think girls do.... Thank god I'm descendent of Sweden and Germany my fine ultra light thin hair wins again!

Everyone has a little peachfuzz! They should have told you that it was extra. I don't think nail salons have any legal right to have trimmers or anything though?

Legal right? Don't most nail salons offer eyebrow and waxing services? Having trimmers is no big deal.

Is it weird that I dont have any toe hair?

At least you have pretty toe now op..:)

Everyone has toe hair. No worries there, op. but charging you extra is out of control ridiculous.

You could have been "The Lord of the Ring" bearer. :P

Don't worry op, toe hairs are normal even for a hobbit. As you can see in my pic, I have lots of toe hairs. I think they are sexy ;)

I see a cat in your profile pic. Unless you glue cats to your toes, I don't see the relevance.
