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 went to get my eyebrows waxed at a korean salon. I have never been there before and it's hard to understand their accents. The women asked me if I wanted "them all off". Not fully understanding what she said, I agreed. When she showed me the mirror, she had taken off my whole eyebrow. 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, 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

Assumptions

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, 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

Today, I was getting a pedicure, and they used some sort of scrubby thing that really tickled my feet. When I couldn't take it any more, I accidentally kicked the lady who was doing my nails in the face. FML

Today, an incredibly rude woman came in for a hairdressing appointment. I had to put up with being yelled at and called a "clumsy bitch," a "pleb," and other insults for almost half an hour. When I finally managed to finish her hair, instead of tipping me, she spat at my feet and stormed out. FML

Face value

Today, it was was my first day back at work as an esthetician. My first client refused to remove her face mask so I could perform the service. She demanded I just do her forehead, and that she’d only pay a third of the price since she’s only getting that part done. I refused and was written up by management. FML

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

If you can't report them somewhere make sure you tell friends and family not to go there to avoid the same thing happening to them

I think that if OP let it happen after the first minute of tweezing, then she doesn't really have the right to cause any trouble about it. Sure, the lady could have asked "Would it be okay if I tweezed your eyebrows, free of charge?" But I don't think the lady's intentions were malicious in nature.

Right cause fighting with someone who is holding tweezers near your eyes is always a good idea.

There is a term in America called "assault and battery". I think that assault is the intent to do harm to someone and battery is the touching of another person that is unwanted. Op, if you didn't mind the free treatment then there is no offense.

she rudely attacked this woman, it hurts you know against her permission, then told her she was hairy.

Well, look on the bright side, OP, you get to look good and it was for free. It's a win-win. :)

Walk out of there and never come back, 'cause that's just rude.

I would have freaked out. I never do anything to my eyebrows. They are fine the way they are. I don't have a unibrow or anything close to it, just normal eyebrows and I like them that way.
