Wanted vs Got: 5 Examples of How a Trip to a Nail Salon Abroad Can End

Is it true? Looking at some of the social media photos the girls post after going to the beauty salon, it’s easy to believe such rumors.

Eileen from the USA showed the master a French manicure with colored tips – the girl expected to walk away with the same. But what Eileen got was very different from the original: she got ridiculous thick green tips that had to be filed down and repainted at home.

French inspires a lot: here is a TikTok user with the handle @_riversc who wanted to do a French manicure with pink tips. Commenters who saw the result couldn’t even come up with a name. “This is the worst thing I have ever seen,” wrote one of Rivers’ followers.

As the experience of Rowy Keel from Australia showed, masters can redesign the French manicure anywhere. The girl went to the salon to arrange a vacation for herself and took a photo of the design she liked with her. Rowe grew suspicious when the nail designer drew a thick red line instead of a thin line, but decided she had to wait for the final result. Alas, the nails were not more beautiful!

Victoria wanted the stylist to replicate the glam nude design with brown swirls she found on social media. “Guys, I will never do manicures again,” the girl commented in a photo of her new nails on TikTok. They impressed users a lot: Victoria’s video received 3.6 million views, almost five and a half thousand reposts and about three thousand comments.

A Brit nicknamed Bloody Bel asked me to do her black nails with pink stars in the middle, showing a picture of the design she liked. The girl’s TikTok followers have long argued over whether the resulting figures can be called stars and whether to return to the show and demand their £50 refund.
