I dream of a place where there are pedicures that don’t hurt, aren’t ticklish, where the tech understands “I have recently had ingrown toenail surgery; please don’t cut the side of my nail bed”, and no one uses a drill or gets irritable or mad at me when I tell them not to file my skin til it bleeds.

What is the name of the version of a pedicure I want, and why are pedicures so damn miserable and overstimulating and stressful? Getting my eyebrows done isn’t pleasant but at least there is no mass social hallucination that it’s supposed to be a relaxing experience.
