wow....what a *hot* thread. I think Sedona and Dana J gave some great advice for a newbie.
I have been friends with several nail techs who have some knowledge about the trans stuff....truthfully, one of my friends who is actually very tg friendly said she would always make sure if a guy booked who wanted colored polish she would make sure to book him when other clients were not around. She said the reality was that even though she was understanding and had no qualms about it, she knew that it woudl bother the more conservative older female clients and possibly make them uncomfortable. ANd given that many men come once and never come back {due to nervousness} she wanted to ultimatly keep her female regulars who comen every two weeks happiest. Can't blame that from a money standpoint.
Bottom line, better to be informed and prepared than not when booking an appointment. getting nails or any spa service done is supposed to be fun and relaxing, I personally {if I was a guy} would be very uncomfortable if I was given the evil eye by some narrow minded granny stuck in the dark ages while trying to enjoy me free femme time.
