I went to the nail salon and the tech used the filing drill on my hand – I’m appalled but people say I should tip her
A NAIL salon customer is being slammed online for critiquing a nail technician following a trip to get a manicure.
They posted a video complaining about the tech removing their calluses, but many people said they are just being ungrateful.
“Went to the nail salon and the lady started doing this,” the person wrote over a video of the tech filing down their hand calluses with an electric drill.
“She said I should wear gloves when I work out.”
In the caption of the video, the poster asked viewers what they would do if they were in the situation, which turned the comment section of the video into a debate over proper nail tech protocol and whether or not getting calluses removed is beneficial.
“That's love and a good nail tech,” one person wrote in support of the manicurist.
“Be grateful she’s getting rid of your calluses,” another viewer instructed.
“After she finishes you should use a very good lotion and your palms will feel less rough.”

“Thank and tip her, then wear gloves when you do weights,” a third person suggested.
Yet a fourth user slammed: “I mean you’re going to a place where they fix your skin and nails what do you expect?”
However, like the poster, others weren't impressed and said the calluses will just come back anyway to protect their hands.
“I would walk out the door,” one person claimed.
“Tech needs her license taken away geeweez,” another argued.
“She's getting rid of nature's gloves,” a third unhappy viewer warned.
A fourth naysayer wrote: “This seems really dangerous and unsanitary… unless that file + tip have been put through an autoclave?
“The metal file is ripping up your skin, I think you could potentially get [a] really nasty bacteria infection…”
The person does have a reason to worry, as a woman once had to get her leg amputated due to a tiny cut she received during a professional pedicure.
Furthermore, a woman from Brazil had to have her thumb amputated after a false nail was placed over an open wound while getting her nails done.
So, who won the debate?
Well, it depends on who you are.
Skyy Hadley, a celebrity nail manicurist, eyelash technician, and owner of the As "U" Wish Nail Spa, told Total Beauty that athletes "should never" get their calluses removed.
She added: "If you are not an athlete, you should have your calluses removed with a deep soak and scrub once they become thick and uncomfortable."
