I mean, I feel for the family, but the moral of the story here is that dudes shouldn't get pedicures:

So, when you get a typical pedi, I'm aware they put some type of solution in the soaking water to disinfect and probably soften up callouses. But SOAK in the paraffin wax? Naw. That's why they call it a dip...not soak.
Speaking of...I was planning on getting a pedi on Saturday, but finding a major nail chip on one of my toes on Friday, exposing the nail bed, but the kabosh on that.
