3 hours down the drain for this messy mani

Guys, I’m losing it. So today I tried a new nail tech and let’s just say she’s not winning any awards. I’d barely been under the UV lamp for a hot second when she takes my hand out to start coloring like hello? The polish wasn’t even set! I watched her fumble through every step, and before I knew it, three whole hours vanished for a mani that still looks half baked. How do you mess up so badly? I’m over here grieving my time and my poor nails. This salon experience is so rough I wanted to walk out. Should I even pay her tho? Drop your wildest nail fails!
