    At the beauticians....

    What do you do with your shoes?
    Obviously when there is wax going on below the belt you remove them but I'm never too sure about the etiquette when you're having work on your face.
    It seems kind of wrong to put my shoes on their nice beds but then again it's a pita taking them on and off in winter....

    What do you do?

    I can't believe I've never asked this before because it's been bugging me for about 15 years now.....

    Does that mean you *can* relax while someone is tearing your eyebrows out by the roots?


    In summer I just kick them off because I live in slides and sandals but in winter it kinda seems like a chore and I hate getting cold feet.

    Shoes off!! You wouldn't put your shoes on your own bed, or would you?

    What sort of shoes do you wear that are hard to take off? You need some winter slip-ons.

    I have a thing about my laces coming undone so I do double knots that would make a sailor proud.

    Back to the OP question I usually take my shoes off and show my huge feet :P And having my eyebrows waxed is very relaxing cause there are no children to disturb me for half an hour :P

    My go-to winter outfit is a dress, stockings, ankle boots and a jacket so I just slip them off. Was just there this weekend and the pain doesn't worry me, I'm too busy laying there hoping I still have two decent eyebrows in the end... especially when they start taking extra long I always assume the worst! They have always turned out brilliant so not sure why I always freak but definitely helps me ignore the pain.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who has left shoes on. I was beginning to feel like I've committed a terrible faux pas.

    BTW, whilst I don't own Ugg boots and I only own flip-flops to avoid catching fungus at the pool I do know the meaning of 'died in the arse' and which obscenities to shout during a rendition of Am I Ever Going To See Your Face Again?. So I'm not 100% unAustralian.
