A Hairdresser Podcast Episode You Won’t Believe
If you’ve been searching for a hairdresser podcast that tells the real, unfiltered stories from inside a salon, this episode of Shit I Told My Hairdresser delivers exactly that.
From personal emergency meltdowns to a client attempting to lick a stylist’s feet mid-appointment, this episode proves one thing:
Salon life is never boring.
This is the kind of salon horror story podcast episode that makes hairstylists feel seen—and makes everyone else question what really happens behind the chair.
What This Hairdresser Podcast Episode Is About
In this episode, Jason and Jack are joined by Jenn, a departmentalized colorist from the Philadelphia area, who shares two unforgettable stories from her salon career.
Topics include:
Clients who prioritize their haircut over a stylist’s family emergency
Entitlement in the beauty industry
The evolution of firing bad clients
And yes… a full-grown adult attempting to lick a stylist’s feet during a color service
If you work in a salon, this episode will feel familiar.
If you don’t, it will feel unbelievable.
When a Client Thinks Their Hair Is More Important Than a Hospital Visit
One of the first stories in this hairdresser podcast episode centers around a holiday salon rush and a true emergency.
The salon owner receives a call: his child is being rushed to the hospital due to a collapsed lung. He finishes up and leaves immediately.
A client, however, refuses to accept that the owner can’t finish her haircut.
Instead of compassion, she demands:
That he “just stay until she’s done”
That her holiday events are prioritized
That her inconvenience matters more
This moment highlights something many hairstylists experience:
Some clients forget that stylists are human.
The episode dives into how salon culture has shifted—how firing clients is now more accepted—and why boundaries matter in the beauty industry.
The Foot Fetish Incident That Shocked an Entire Salon
Then comes the story that inspired the episode title.
While working in a Philadelphia salon, Jenn witnessed a client:
Attempt to lick a colorist’s feet mid-service
Get removed from the station
Then dive toward another client’s feet in the waiting area
Yes. Dive.
This wasn’t subtle. It wasn’t accidental. It was a full superhero-style launch toward someone’s toes.
The salon had to physically intervene and escort him out.
This hairdresser podcast episode explores:
Workplace safety in salons
Sexual harassment in the beauty industry
How salons handle uncomfortable situations
And the fine line between awkward and dangerous behavior
Why Hairdresser Podcasts Like This Are Growing
More and more stylists are searching for:
hairdresser podcast recommendations
hairstylist podcasts about salon life
beauty industry podcasts with real stories
salon horror story podcasts
Why?
Because social media glamorizes the beauty industry.
But podcasts like Shit I Told My Hairdresser show the truth.
This episode resonates because it’s not scripted. It’s not polished PR. It’s real conversations about:
entitlement
boundaries
mental health
inappropriate client behavior
and the realities of working in customer service
Salon Culture Has Changed — And That’s a Good Thing
One of the key takeaways from this episode is that the industry has evolved.
Years ago:
Stylists felt forced to tolerate anything
“The client is always right” was absolute
Firing clients was rare
Now:
Boundaries are respected
Personal emergencies are honored
Harassment isn’t tolerated
This hairdresser podcast doesn’t just entertain—it validates professionals who have experienced similar situations.
Who Should Listen to This Hairdresser Podcast?
This episode is perfect for:
Hairstylists
Barbers
Salon owners
Beauty school students
Front desk staff
Anyone curious about behind-the-scenes salon life
If you enjoy podcasts that are:
Funny
Brutally honest
Slightly unhinged
And completely real
You’ll love this one.

jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.

jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: We, I mean, we had a little bit of hate sprinkled on top of it because she definitely had a little bit of hate, but I think it was just because she didn't get what she wanted. Of course. Imagine that, right?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: A client didn't get what she wanted and that's how always a good story. That's how it's always a good story starts. So
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: So,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: happened?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: all right, picture it. I. It's the night, Sicily. No. Um,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: I love that. My wife loves you.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Are like,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: My wife loves the Golden girls. Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Oh, best. But, uh, night before Thanksgiving, you know, busy, busy time in the salon. We all know
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Oh
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Um, half of us would, you know, rather be out. Doing the party the night before [00:06:00] Thanksgiving. But it's actually, you know, for us hairdressers, it's a very, very busy day. A lot of salons do customer appreciation and thankful, you know, the whole night. So we were very busy and like, um. Like we said, like Jason said, I was departmentalized, so I was the colorist and the owner was a stylist. He only cut hair and there were other stylists in the salon. and we had a client who was getting color with me and then cut with him, and all of a sudden my owner gets a phone call from his wife that they are rushing his child to the hospital because his lung collapsed.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Oof.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Hmm.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: we like, and he was in the middle of a haircut, so he just kind of like finished up the haircut. I can't remember if he blew them out or if he had somebody else, but I, knowing him, he probably did like just blow them out really quickly and do like finishing touches. Yeah, I, I,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: and I mean, I don't mean that in a bad way.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I mean that in like, you know, a good way. Like [00:07:00] he just like got through that client and then headed out the door. So we were more newly open, so we quite have like a manager yet. So like when he wasn't there, I was kind of in charge. So it was on me to, you know, explain to those who still had to see him, you know, that. You know, that wasn't gonna happen. So my client, you know, I told her, listen, here's the situation, but I have this person, I have that person. I, you know, I think I gave her three options. And I said, they're all great. They've all been trained by him. You're, you'll be great. And just. Blue or top. is unacceptable. I, you know, we're going into the holidays. I have work events, I have meetings, I have, this is a very important time. And can he just, you know, I'm about to get washed off, can't he just stay until I'm done and da da da da da. And it was, it was a nightmare. And I
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Fuck your kid. Who's dying? Fuck your kid whose lung just collapsed.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: yeah,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: need to [00:08:00] cut my hair.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Ex
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: There's an emergency and
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: she is really not. She doesn't care.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Is she upset that she's upset the emergency's? Not her.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Right?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: needs to be the emergency.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah. Now it is to her. Right.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: yeah,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Wow.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I was
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: So,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: the next day and I
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Hmm.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: going home and I had all this stuff to do and I just remember g going home and I was like, I need to, I like cracked open a beer and just sat there by, my husband was out and I just sat by myself in my living room and drank a beer because I, was just, by the time I got out of there and that whole debacle, I was just like, I, can't do anything right now.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I need to just decompress for a second 'cause
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: So then who do, who did her hair?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: One of
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: end up doing it
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: yeah, one of the other stylists did it, and of
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: right?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: like it. So
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: course. Yeah. Because it wasn't him.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: and you know, you didn't do what I, we talked about and do, do, do, do, do. [00:09:00] And this stylist specifically, cut the most minuscule amount off just to make it look like we were cutting.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Mm-hmm.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Right.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: then all of a sudden it was too short. It was the, it just, you know, it wasn't right. It wasn't this and, and just, you know, was just, there was no, unless you're like David Copperfield, I can't imagine you taking a person like that and turning that situation around. By the time they leave their, their mind's made up.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: They're done.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Right. Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: absolutely. Yeah.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: She hated it before, a haircut even started, so. Mm-hmm.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: She already had a plan in her head on what she was gonna do and how she's gonna get outta things. And also probably what the owner, later on, when he does come back, what he could do for her. You know what I mean? To make up for the, you know, all the shit that happened the, the day before Thanksgiving. You know what I mean?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Because she's so important and everyone's gonna see her, you know? And how many clients does she bring in?[00:10:00]
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Right.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: What happened after? Like when she, came in again,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Uh, like nothing happened
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: never asked about
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Really.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: to my knowledge.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: I.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: No, probably not. Or may, maybe did, you know, um, my gosh. Because at this point we're looking at, I'm trying to think. She's, I mean, we're looking at a good, nine or 10 years ago this happened. 11
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: maybe. Um,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Maybe in the eighties got away with shit like that, but not like 10 years ago. You know what I mean? Fuck you.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: no. but even 10 years ago, like I feel like firing our clients has kind of become a newer thing to where. It's always been around, but I feel like it's more accepted. These, I, I don't know. I mean, the way I came up, I always feel like it was like I was not allowed to say no.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I had to just do whatever they wanted and had to get
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: and it had to be right, you know, dot, dot, dot. and the client's always [00:11:00] right. And if I, if I remember correctly, it was like she came in and. like, I'm just, I'm trying to recall it now and if I'm not mistaken, I actually believe she came in all this sympathy and oh, I hope he like. it the other way now that like, you know, you know, you're telling the story and you're thinking it went
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Oh, right. Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: with, with all this concern and oh my gosh. And of course, and you had, of course you had to, and I, you know, that's what's most important. And da da da da da. Um,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: because she went to the next party and told everyone what happened and how she got mad at them. And when they went through and were like, we're probably like aghast for what she actually did, she realized like,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Uh,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: God, all my friends hate me.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yep.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: All my friends hate me for being a bitch. You know what I mean?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: And maybe I should go and turn my, you know, turn everything around when I come back to the salon and make it about him instead about me. Oh, wow.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah, because [00:12:00] that's, that's exactly it. Now that like, you know, you start talking and you start remembering things and that, that,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: thinking about it, that's exactly like, she came in and was, was all like, you know, and I just remember like, like shaking my head, like, are you serious right now?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Like, and he knew, 'cause I told him I waited a few days 'cause I, I didn't wanna upset him. I waited till, you know, I knew everything was good and okay, and then I told him, and you know, and he was like, eh, you know, but, you know, he wasn't happy, but he wasn't gonna like fire her over it or anything. But then,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Well, and that's what she was afraid of, was getting fired. You know what I mean? That's why she changed her attitude. But I,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: I
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: I had something, yeah, I probably, well, I almost did to one of my clients, actually, this just happened last year to me. It's where my wife ended up in the hospital with, uh, a blood clot in her lungs And, um, we had to go through and like, call all the clients and let 'em know that, uh, you know, I wouldn't be in during certain hours. We had to reschedule a bunch of people, send emails out to [00:13:00] people we couldn't reach, send text messages out. And what we were trying to do is keep, my son was still going to school during this time because I wanted to keep it, everything very normal for him.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Right? And so. I would take him to school in the morning and I would, I would actually leave at three o'clock. So I had to cancel everyone after three o'clock, go and get him, and then we'd go to the hospital and spend time with my wife until, you know, basically the hours were busy, hours were over. And I had a client come in and, and she had to move her appointment around and she sees me there inside the salon and she gives me this fucking look.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: And, you know, you get that look from somebody and you're like, oh shit, what did I do wrong?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Mm-hmm.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: And so she's telling, she's not saying anything to me. She's telling the colorist like, why is Jason here? I thought he wouldn't be here. I had to go through and reschedule my appointment, this and that. And she goes, 'cause his wife nearly died and she's still in the hospital, you know?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: And I was like, and so the colorist comes and tells me what happened. And so I [00:14:00] walked over. I was like, listen. I'm like, here's what happened. I'm like, I'm working these certain hours so when my son's at school so I can drop him off and pick him up to keep things as normal as possible. But I'm like, I do have to leave and we do have to reschedule.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: I did hear what you said. You know what I mean? I can do your hair that day. She goes, well, I'm just worried about my child arrangements. You know? I mean, I'm just recently divorced and I have this, and I'm like, child arrangements. Cool. My wife nearly died.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: She's looked at me, and so the next time she came in for her haircut, we were talking and come to find out her childcare came from her mom.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: It wasn't like she was paying someone or going out of her way to like, you know, but I was like, oh my God. I kept the receipts in my head. I know what you're saying. I remember everything that you said, so trust me, it's like her appointments are now, if you're texting me or want something special from me or a certain time or, Hey, my childcare, Nope, sorry.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: If that's the way you're gonna treat us, that's the way you're gonna be. You know, I, I don't think [00:15:00] so, you know.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: a list now. Huh?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Oh, in my head, she definitely is. Yeah. She's made that list,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Yep.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: for sure. So, yeah, it's amazing how clients, they just don't, it's all about them. They don't fucking care, you know? Or even like what's going on right now, it's.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Everyone's like texting their stylist and they're like, you know, asking, what time do you have available? I have like an 11 o'clock and I have a three o'clock. So, and the client's like, so nothing at nine?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah. Right.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah, I have, so I have an 11 and I have a three. So you couldn't do nine 30? No, no. 'cause that's not available.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: That's actually not available. You know what I mean? And sorry. But yeah, people are just like. It's all about them. Why need to be convenienced? And don't get me wrong, we're in the customer service industry. If I can go through and convenience you, absolutely, I definitely will. But if you're one of these people, you can fucking forget about it.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I think it's hard. I feel like sometimes. I feel very lucky in the clientele that I have built. Most of my [00:16:00] clientele are like family. been together for years. I love them. And then it's kind of like when you get to that certain point, when you do have that type of clientele, when you do get those other types of clients that really, I mean, I hate to say this, but they look at you like you're beneath them.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Like you're, you know, you're doing a service for them. You're the help
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yes.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: It kind of throws you off a little bit when you're like, whoa, you know, wait a sec. Like you, like you said, like you know her getting mad at you for, you know, it doesn't like, this is my job, like. I'm sure she has PTO time at her work.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Like, and if she had something going on
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Right.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: and she's, you know, leaving at, you know, two o'clock every day for the time being, for whatever it may be. Like, she's not answering emails, she's not taking phone calls, she's not sending projects in. She's, you know, she's using her PTO. It's the same. It's the same thing.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: And that's what people, you know, don't seem to
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Jen, use your PT [00:17:00] Jen. Use all your PTO. Use all your PTO. Jen.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah. Right.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah, don't, Jack, don't you have a PTO.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: What's your base salary? What's your base salary?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: yeah. What's my
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: p.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: That's what people don't get. We don't work, we don't eat. You know what I mean? We are our business and we don't you, you remember those signs they have in in restaurants? We refuse or we have the right to refuse service. Guess what? So do we.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: And we're back to the show.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Alright, so Jen, we've uh, we talked about the people who are pieces of shit. Mm-hmm. Now we're gonna get to more of the stories of people acting really shitty or just kind of badly or just people who just don't get it because that seems like this person is type A person who just doesn't maybe get it.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah. You know? So [00:18:00] that's safe to say. You think it's safe to say? Yeah, absolutely. I think
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: that's safe to say.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Yeah. What life?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Well, let's talk about what this guy, just life in
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: general.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah. He, he definitely doesn't have his shit screwed on. Right. You know what I mean? So what would you say, Jen?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I would, I would concur.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Right. Alright. So what people don't know, especially with like working departmentalize, it's like normally there's like. The color side and there's like a cutting side. Is that kind of your situation or what side's on?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yes.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Okay.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: So this is way back when in the, you know, the 19 hundreds, um, or no, no, it was the two thousands at this point.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: It was, um, but no, this is when I was an assistant and I was, it was towards the end of the day we were slowing down and I was in. The color bar area cleaning up. And I take a look over to my left, and from my vantage point, I could see inside the one color area. It was a [00:19:00] beautiful, like, well lit area. And one of my coworkers who was a colorist, all of a sudden I see her jump up onto one of the chairs, uhhuh, and give out like a little screech.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: At this, it is like, I saw that my mind immediately was like, oh my God, there's a mouse. And then with that same thought, I see a man like fall to the ground and I'm like, oh my God, he's having a seizure. And it like for the split a second two, I thought to myself, why is she jumping up on a chair if he's having a seizure?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Like, so then I run in and I'm like, what's going on? And she's like, he just tried to lick my feet. And I'm like, wow.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: What? And it was
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: tried to or did,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: tried to. I think that was the full point of jumping up onto the chair. Yeah. Right. Yeah. I wanna know what that makes
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: it easier for him though.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I mean.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Think about how high our, our pump chairs even, even at their lowest are up from the ground. Like, I should probably ask her [00:20:00] who, you know, who her trainer was at that point. 'cause I, she could jump up there. Um,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: yeah,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: but so then, so was
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: she doing his hair at the time or,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: yes, because I do remember,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: so this is her client.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yes, and I, I, like I said, I don't, or I don't know that it was a regular of hers. I do know that this particular client was a son of. Very, you know, loyal, held high client. You know how all salons have those, you know, the regular, you know those, the VIPs, you know, the important ones. Um, and they've gained that status for good reason, loyalty and, and such, and treating us well.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: So I believe it was a son like this. So she was just doing his color and then he was to go onto
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: hair. He's an adult. Adult though. He's not a kid.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: No, he was a full grown adult. Full grown adult. Like
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: in his thirties,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: correct? Like that In his, yes. Full grown, in his thirties. Um, Jesus. Yes. Just, [00:21:00] you know, should know better.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Should know better.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: So he was having his haircut and then he decided he's gonna lick her feet.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Well, he was actually having his color service at that point.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Okay. Still he's having his hair done.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah. Yes.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: And he, and he just suddenly decides, oh, here's my opportunity.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: This is it.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: I
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: need some toes in my mouth.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I feel like this cape is going to give me gliding, uh, momentum.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Maybe he was like a superhero with the cape on, you know. Um, so he was wearing open toed shoes,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: obviously. Yeah, probably. Yeah. Obviously. Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Okay,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: better.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: So what do you do with this guy? What happens now?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: So we run and we grab, we run into the stylist room and grab a couple of our, you know, male stylists.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: One was Anmar, so he was real, you know, he kind of like our, you know, our little security guy and they kind of just came in. And I [00:22:00] guess talk to him for a minute. But then he was, you know, he must've gotten his hair rinsed out, shampooed, and then he was sitting in the waiting area waiting for, I believe, a ride.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Because at that point, I, I, from what I remember, they cut off like, okay, we're we're done for today. Like, I guess he wouldn't be getting his hair cut, or maybe he was just scheduled for color, but he was waiting, he was waiting for, yeah, you gotta
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: go.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah. It's, you know,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: And so we were he waiting for you?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Canceled. He got canceled before people started getting canceled. Um, right. So then at this point, now I'm standing up at the front desk, mainly because I'm just nosy and I wanna see what's happening and
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah. Yeah, I would too.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Right. And I
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: would record 'em.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: It took me too long. It was 45 to just admit like, Hey, I'm just, I, I'm just, no, I just wanna know what's happening.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I just wanna in on the. But
hell
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: yeah. We wouldn't have a show without it.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Right. I wanna know what's going on. So I, I'm [00:23:00] standing, I'm standing at the front. There is a client and another, like the first lady was a stylist. This was just a random client sitting at the, sitting in the waiting area waiting to get brought back, and he was sitting in a chair in the waiting area.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: And all was well and good. And then the next thing I know, I just see him like dive, like head first to the ground in front of her. Kind of like, you know, oh no. Into like diving into a pool, like hands out, like great form, um, wow. To the ground directly to, directly to her feet and like
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: a superhero.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: A hundred percent like a superhero.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: But
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: he like flew there.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yes. Again, I mean, well he didn't have his cape at that point, so I don't, I mean, but I guess he still felt like he had no, he doesn't
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: need it. Um,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: he doesn't need it,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: but he's not leaving without licking somebody's toes.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Somebody's toes are getting licked by the tie. Yeah. And
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: did you ever offer [00:24:00] yours?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I should have, but I would've said, you need to pay me.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah. We have some money. You're an assistant. You need the money. You know what I mean?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Kinda, yeah. Right. I was an assistant
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: that's 20 bucks a tow.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: That was the beta version. It was the beta version of OnlyFans.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Um, but this poor, this poor lady. This poor lady jumped up.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: She was reading a magazine. This goes, this is shows how long ago this was. She was reading a magazine she wasn't staring at, how old was she? She was probably thirties, four, early forties. She was young. She wasn't old, she was young, just waiting for her haircut. Probably I would say like a mom maybe had a couple young kids, um, probably went home and said to her husband like, how come you never try to lick my feet?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Uh, yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: I met a guy today,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: I think we just discovered a new porn fetish like category. You know what I mean? [00:25:00] Ambush, lit, fetish or something.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: I mean, I mean, I, I'm just wondering. That's what's weird. Okay. So that's the way he thinks he has to do it is like, surprise, I'm licking your toes, you know? Um,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: yes. Well, then he proceeds, so after
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: this, no one would let him.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: So he has had just take it,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: keep on trying. Um, but unfortunately after, you know, we didn't employ the three strikes. You're out, two strikes, you're out. Um. We, you know, again, we, we grabbed our, we grabbed our ex, uh, Semper Fi and he took him out and he's talking to him and he was so, because of the way that this was all handled, I am assuming they kind of knew.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Something was going on, but they brought him outside Uhhuh, and they, and they said to him, um, he says to him like, you know, buddy, what do you do? Like, you can't be doing this. Like this is not a per, you can't try and lick women's feet. You just, you can't do it. [00:26:00] And
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: no one's told them that. I guess
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I, if you haven't heard, it's kind of a no-no.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Um, and he dead looks at him and just says, well, how do you get girls? Whoa.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Yeah. Yeah. There's definitely something going on. There's a lot autistic kind of a
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yes. Wow. And that's, I say when you think about it, like, you know, 20 years ago that that light wasn't turned on yet, and public opinion and the, the awareness wasn't quite there yet.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Um, but we knew something was only Jenny
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: McCarthy knew. She was the only one that knew.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Who?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Jenny McCarthy.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yeah. She was like,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: she's the only one that knew, you know,
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: she was the only one. Maybe that was her cousin or something. I don't know. Yeah.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: And, and I, I think that's why also like the cops were like, there must have been, they must have known this because, you know, um. I don't know that they [00:27:00] knew that the cops were
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: called.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: The cops were never called anything like that. So that's why I think that they knew something was different. Um, yeah, but I don't think, I, I highly doubt they were prepped on what could actually happen.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I don't think that at all. Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Things just got a little fucking outta hand this time, so
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: I agree. I think if they,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: yeah, but he has no filter either, you know, it's like, like he is definitely on, uh, the spectrum where, on there. I don't know where, where that, on that foot lick or fall. If, if he, if he thinks that's okay, but obviously it's worked in the past.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: So
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: he, that's the thing,
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: because the comment keeps doing it. Yeah. Uh, I mean, so how do you get girls? So like, if I don't lick their toes, they won't even give me the chance. So like he doesn't know to talk to them. Um,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: but you screaming at someone telling them to stop [00:28:00] is not an actual conversation that you wanna be having.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: Right. You know what I mean? So maybe he's got that confus in his head, you know what I mean?
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: He talked
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: to me like me, he talked to me, to me.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Yeah. She was yelling at you. Yeah. But so
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: yeah. Least she acknowledged me. You know what I mean? So yeah. Guys are just like, definitely he's on, on the spectrum side. Yeah.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: You know what I mean? But I've had clients where they're not, and they just think that that's like a good line and know, as I've had clients come on the salon and I, this one guy who would just, he would say it in his voice when he'd walk by their like female styles and go. Nice feet. I really like your toenail polish.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: And I'm like grabbing him by the collar. I'm like, get to my fucking station, dude. Like, knock this shit off. You're like freaking everyone out. But you know those guys that say it in that voice?
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Yes.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: You know, he's like nice feet and the girls are like, Ugh. You get the ick. Yeah, just like that fool. You know?
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: I didn't do his hair very long 'cause I was like, you're fucking weird man. You just gotta like knock it off and don't come back in. 'cause everyone's just [00:29:00] like tired of your ass. But. I haven't had anybody try to lick someone's toes, you know what I mean? So
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: yeah. I've only heard, uh, complimenting feet. Yeah.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: And never actual attempt to lick them.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: No.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Um,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: but even so, that's a weird thing to do though. I mean, I've never actually walked through the salon going and like, Hey, nice feet. Hey, your feet look great today.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: No.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: You know what I mean? I mean, you, what you just say is like, Hey, you look really nice today, or whatever it is.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: You're not like isolating one area, you know? I mean, you have a person's body.
jenn--she-her-_1_02-03-2026_135753: Your elbow is just shining today,
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: right? Yeah. You ain't ashy. Not ashy.

All right, it's time to kick up those toes with some shit ology.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: For those clients who have major issue with personal emergency cancellations, they can fuck right off. I don't need a sign hanging up To refuse service to some selfish asshole. We're done. Fto, your name is blocked on the system. This means you can never, ever come in the salon again.
jack_1_02-03-2026_115753: Unless you have really cute feet. In that case, I think we got some time for you. Just one thing though, you have to sit in the tickle chair, leave your shoes at the door, and your [00:34:00] stylist. We like to call him foot fetish Frank. He'll love you.
jason-_1_02-03-2026_105753: And with that, stay shitty.
