Today, my friend and I decided to get bikini waxes. Afterwards, the women who did the waxing told my friend it was $30 for her wax. Then, in front of the whole salon, the women points at me and says, "You! You so hairy- $35!". FML

Today, after begging for over an hour, I had to pay my sister $20 to wax my back for me so my bra would stop painfully pulling at the hair I repulsively seem to be growing there. FML

Today, I got my eyebrows waxed. The lady who waxed my eyebrows also decided to pop the big zit on my forehead. She charged me a dollar extra. FML

Today, as I was getting my nails done at a salon, the owner pulled my head back against the chair in front of all the customers and began to tweeze my eyebrows. When I exclaimed that I didn't pay for that service, she replied, "I don't care. This needs done." FML

Today, I got a bikini wax. They said it wouldn't hurt too badly, and that it would just sting. My friend heard me screaming from all the way down the hall in the waiting room. FML

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

Today, I went to have my eyebrows waxed for the first time. After signing in the receptionist looked at me and said "Lip wax?". I told her no, my eyebrows. She sat me down and the waxer walked up, took one look at me and said "Lip wax?" FML

Hairy situation

Today, I went to get my underarms waxed. I'm usually not self-conscious because I figure they see worse stuff all the time. When I raised my arm for her to wax my armpit she looked at me, laughed and said, "Well I guess that's how I know it's winter in Wisconsin!" FML

Today, I went to get a haircut. The hairdresser at the counter was kind of cute, so I had to say something non-standard. When she greeted me with her hello, I replied, "Guess what I need from you today?" She looked at me, considered, and replied, "An eyebrow wax?" FML

Today, after a haircut, I walked to the cash register, handed the hairdresser a $20 bill and said, "Keep the change." He looked at me with a blank expression and replied, "The haircut costs 25 dollars." FML

Is it even legal to charge an extra $5? You shouldn't have paid it.

NO waxing should cost $35, you can do it yourself for like... $8.

No, I've seen shirts cost more too. But yeah, it's beside the point.

Sorry hon, YDI. That's humiliating, but it would take what, all of 5 minutes to trim it up a bit on your own before you paid some poor chick to deal with it? To me, lettin' the bush roam free because you're gonna get it waxed is like not flushing your toilet because you have a maid-- not cool! I'd charge more too.

Your analogy fails because a maid's job is to clean, not flush a toilet. The waxer at the salon's job is to wax hair off...so it's not like some ridiculous thing to not trim your own hair if you're going to get a wax...otherwise, why get a wax and not just do it all yourself? I wouldn't make a point to trim my nails before getting a mani/pedicure. THAT'S a better analogy...and I wouldn't think anyone would have to trim either.
