The fact she is such a professional and has the experience to cover so many services, made me become a regular customer.
As for Maria, I don’t believe she came from an evil place, rather an ignorant place. I’m a Muslim woman and I cover my body, including my hair. She made a remark firstly on my headscarf - Saying she is sweating just looking at me. I did not once indicate I was feeling hot. Nonetheless, I excused it. She then went on to say how she can’t handle Islam - fair enough, it’s an opinion. She further went onto complain about her Portuguese neighbour who became a Muslim, “Why would he do that? I don’t understand it”. She then made an insult to Muslim men and said she really hates Moroccan men. It clearly came from a place of xenophobia because she indicated she’s from Spain and that part has “too many of them”.
She even insulted the way Indian people speak and started saying random words mocking them and their accent.
I had an evening dinner with family so I really didn’t want to spoil my mood by becoming confrontational but it really was upsetting. She is a free spirit in nature from my observation - I get it but it did not justify her behaviour and comments.. she also used foul language (f*** it) multiple times. Very unprofessional! I was utterly appalled by her behaviour and service altogether. I really do not understand how she has achieved this many ratings.
*editing after her response*
I did not lie, and everything I said was the truth. I don’t think you’re a bad person, in fact you seem genuine and you’re funny. Like you say, you are a free spirit. At the same time, you’re idea of open minded conversation is not right. You crossed boundaries. My pedicure btw was very good and in fact one of the best I had (dry). It’s just everything else that was very triggering. I hope you learn to be open minded and understand that things can come across as very islamophobic, racist and rude. And as I already mentioned before, I don’t think that you’re horrible, I just think there was some ignorance.
