Mani/Pedi?


So in my apparent quest to hit full fledge metro-dom I've decided that I will probably be getting a manicure soon. I've been a life long nail biter....not b/c of nervousness or no shit like that cuz The Teej be on that Bonecrusher 'I AINT NEVA SCARED' shit. LOL.

However in my growing wisdom I've come to understand that this habit isnt the most attractive of habits I have. Nor sanity. I mean to keep it real with yall...the only nails I can recal clipping with a nailclipper is my toes. I simply regulate my fingernails by biting them mugs. Hoping I aint grossing no one out.

A couple weeks ago I decided I wasnt gonna bite my nails no mo. And so I stopped. Just like that. See that boy can exercise discipline when he wants. Then I decided that I will get my first ever manicure before I leave for Miami. Funny thing is....when I shared with this with a couple of my female co-workers....these heifers suggested I get a pedicure too! Then another female friend said the same thing!.....the fuck? A pedicure? I just cant see my big ass sitting up on a stool getting my feet done! What the fuck am I suppose to do while sitting up there? Talk to one of the fellas on the phone? I mean I think I got cool looking toes for a guy. Is a pedicure necessary? Aint that just thrusting my ass over on the metro side of the line?

Do I support black business or let the asians do it? What if they fuck my feet up? LOL. How absurd even coming from me........

Well Teej if you do go through with it you can call me or any female. I think it is best to be talking to a woman while getting a pedi...definitely don't call one of the fellas. I'm sure you would never hear the end of it if they found out.

I say go for it... they buff your heels if they're on the rough side, clip your toe nails and give u a relaxing mini-massage. It feels wonderful, and I say hey, why should women be the only ones to experience that pleasure??? Embrace your Metro, Teej. It ain't like u finna get no polish on them joints, right?

I think you should do it. There is nothing better than a man who knows how to take care of himself. Just don't go to far and start getting your eyebrows done. I'd rather see a uni-brow stretched across your 4 head than a perfect arch. But there is nothing wrong with a mani/pedi.

I have mixed feelings..I've seen men get manicures before in the nail shop, but let me tell you if I SEEN A BIG ASS 6 foot something MAN sitting the spa chair soaking his feet... I would laugh.. but that's just me LOL LOL .. and let the asians do them.. Americans suck at it and they rush too!!
