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, 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.

colormefancy, you're retarded. not only by your ideology (limiting freedom of speech, controlling everyone's vocabularies, and telling people who they are making fun of when they're actually not), but also cause you can't spell and you don't know basic english. "your" (a pronoun) and "you're" (a contraction of "you are") are not interchangeable. it's basic elementary school english. learn it.

Is there a way you can complain to the owner? If she is the owner, complain to the BBB about the bad service. No one has any right to treat you that way. At all. Even if it's a small Mom and Pop business, go for blood. That will teach those asswhipes a lesson and get them deported.

Wow, that woman didn't give at all! I think that's just wide to say that to someone, even if she didn't charge you more. You should've just told her to shove it and walk out. I don't think it's right that she made you pay more even when it was only meant to be $30 in the first place!

I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, like others said, more is always extra. Also, when it comes to those salons, it is all about business. For example, when you go in to just get an eyebrow waxing, the people working there can be rude and tell you that you need a chin or lip waxing as well which makes the customer feel uncomfortable. Your waxer most definitely should not have said that in front of everyone.

That is SO harsh :O I feel really sorry for you! And to all these people saying "YDI for being hairy" - obviously she was hairy, or she wouldn't have gone to get waxed in the first place, would she? It was in no way fair for her to embarass you like that in front of people just for having a little more hair than the other girl.

I marked both. Having too much of a bush is really gross, but you were trying to fix it, so props. As for the waxer, I would have dumped that wax all over her head and walked out without paying.
