So the nail salon I frequent didn't have any openings. There is a salon closer to me that advertises being lgbtq+ friendly and accepts everyone.
The owners knows about me, I reached out to her before but didn't end up coming because they stopped doing pedicures. But I really wanted my fingers done so I booked an appointment. Now I've been really out now, I present as nonbinary but obviously make, but had on shorter shorts a unisex top and women's sandals.
Turns out only 2 girls work there and they are besties. Had a fantastic time chatting, shows them tons of pics of Chelsi, my puppy, my wife, etc. We ended up talking past their closing time, super nice girls and became friends instantly. And the girl that did my nails did a great job!
I'm glad i stopped caring about stares
