The Spa

So, my iron-wife wanted to do a facial just to treat herself. And me, have to come with. Due to the busy schedule, she has not been able to trim my eye brows. So, she had booked me for a threading. It was fine and danny except this guy needed my assistance to do the threading. What? I had threading done before and customer assistance was not required nor should be part of the equation. Great! Then since I was there, I might as well relax and have a nice old traditional shave. That was all before I knew my assistance was needed. The shave, well, I might as well do it myself. No customer assistance was required but didn't do a close enough shave; I had to "complete" the shave myself when I got back to my room. That was when I realize he nicked me too. The cost wasn't prohibited. R300 for the shave and R90 for the threading, about CAD$8 for the shave and CAD$2.30 for the threading; I tipped more then the shave and the threading combined. Well, this is India though so don't expect great great quality of work. I knew I was in trouble when the guy wasn't smiling and turned on the TV to the Indian channel for the latest news.

Maybe my wife's will have better experience.
