B-Rant- submitted by carrie on 02/01/2007Invasion of the Nail SalonsHere's my question: Why does my town need 4 nail salons? We've got no movie theater or hardware store, no diner, we've got the usual Starbucks, of course. Maybe 1 good restaurant. A new Indian restaurant opened, and it tastes like Bird's Eye. But what's the point? How can there be enough women around (sorry guys) to support all these places? Oh yea and we've got dry cleaners, tons. Nail salons and dry cleaners. Our village is like the personal and clothing hygiene mall. It doesn't make sense. ...read more rants   salon economics - submitted by len on 02/01/2007
an economist won a nobel prize concluding that independently owned gas stations made more money if they were all located together at the same intersection, instead of being alone on the intersection. must be the same for nail salons! birdseye - submitted by coffeegirl on 02/01/2007

my favorite was the chinese frozen dinners. those tiny egg rolls rocked! in my town in nj another - submitted by suburbangirl on 02/01/2007
in my town in nj another nail salon was coming in and some people protested. we'd had 2, it was replacing a local gift store, and yea we had a bunch of dry cleaners too. i don't know why exactly, but the nail salon never came. instead we got an olive garden. be careful what you wish for. oh my god. i'd rather eat - submitted by caryn on 02/01/2007
oh my god. i'd rather eat swanson or birdseye than olive garden. i crack up every time i see those tv commercials with all the happy diners. my town. north maryland. we have no nail salons. maybe one of yours can move there. i know it's kind of funny. - submitted by 2beth on 02/01/2007
i know it's kind of funny. but it's kind of depressing too. not about nail salons, but fact that you pretty have to go to the mall to do any real shopping. unless your town is already a strip mall. we needed some safety plugs to cover out outlets the other day. the kids were trying to do fun things with plastic forks. i had to drive 15 minutes to home depot. a nightmare in itself. shopping for plastic plug thingies at home depot! i hate that place. home depot is god - submitted by jefffromclevelandburbs on 02/01/2007
hey, i love home depot. i've gotten lost there. if home depot was in my town it would take up the entire village. don't have a view on nail salons. don't even understand them. i clip my nails whenever. why can't everyone clip their own nails. there i said it. jeffromcleveland doesn't understand - submitted by caryn on 02/01/2007
going to the nail salon isn't for clipping nails. it's for the whole experience. guys have no clues. metrosexuals, evolved guys do. you should try it. no thank you - submitted by jeffromcleveland on 02/01/2007
think i'll skip the manicures. i'm a proud non-metrosexual. but i'm all in support of those here who want to do away with village nail salons. i vote for pool halls instead. ... - submitted by A. Nonny Mouse on 10/09/2007
Wow... Of all the things a person has to complain about... Nail salons? Unemployment, gas prices, people who change lanes without looking, the ever-growing air quality problems, epidemic juvenile obesity, meth labs, international economic imbalance, declining health care quality, lack of education funding... ...nail salons? O.o nail salons - submitted by Anonymous on 10/31/2007
Nail salons can be an asset to any town, providing the nail tech is licensed and adheres to the standards of the states' licensing board for sanitation and disinfection. Many people can benefit from visiting a nail salon, especially the elderly and diabetics, both of whom need special care for their feet.  |
