Menghias Kuku

Last week I redeemed the remaining two of MilkADeal vouchers bought quite some months back. One of was the RM38 voucher for mani and pedi session. Better yet, I went there with my two besties!

It was my very first ever manicure and pedicure session. Kasihan betul perempuan tiga puluh tahun ini. And I only bought the package considering it was cheap, only RM38 for both manicure and pedicure.

Being the slave of punctuality, I reminded the girl friends get ready at 8.00a.m., as our session would be the first session, at 10.00a.m. First, I had to sneak out before Eirsa woke up, then we have to have breakfast at mamak's before the session. (Saya sebenarnya terpaksa merangkak di sebelah cot Eirsa, setelah mendapati sang puteri telah terjaga dari peraduan waktu saya ingin keluar dari bilik).

Meminjam Insight suami, I drove the girls to Bandar Sunway, where the nail spa located. As expected, it was a new shoplot blocks. (Side notes : I believe most of promotional items from MilkADeal and other better-deals-coupons from some websites which offer at least 50% discount, are to promote the newly launched business. As such, you'll be receiving small briefing after the promotional session, on their current offer, future offers and perhaps, membership. Not to complain much, it is understood that I've paid for some very reasonable amount and I have to endure the hoi-kau-dah-bayar-murah-takkan-tak-nak-subscribe face by the owner or the promoter. I ended up purchase small one time offer less than RM20, as a courtesy).

It was a good 1 1/2 hour session and we started as erly as 9.45a.m. The spa was nice, the manicure technicians or manicurists were competent and friendly (except for mine, she was perhaps still new thus being extra careful. She's a Filipino, from Manila and has stayed in Malaysia for one year). But the package didn't offer buffing and shining, so we purchase the service for RM10 for finger nails only. Had to have some significant effect, I must say.

All in all it was a good experience. It's just that it was quite a doubt when they mentioned that the package was originally quoted at RM200. The manicurist (same person that did pedicure too) accidentally told that the whole package was actually cost RM68 when she promoted their latest package of 4 times of same package for only RM220 (RM55 for each session), instead of RM68 x 4, and the 4 sessions are transferrable. Plus, the hand and feet massages were too brief; hardly 1 minute for each hand and foot. Macam touch and go saja. Still, after only RM38 (plus RM38 x 2, since the besties' mani pedi vouchers were on me too) and senyum-kasihan-selepas-menolak-promotion-daripada-manicurists-yang-tak-percaya-kami-adalah-ibu, the result was not bad at all!

Note : Suami tak terima alasan I tak nak buat kerja-kerja rumah sebab sayang kuku kilat *__*

It's A Fact! : early 80 percent of the nail salons in the United States employ Vietnamese technicians or are Vietnamese owned, 10 percent is belonged to Korean American community, largely located in New York, and the remain is belonged to other communities. (Source : http://www.uspedicurespa.com)
