    Hi Everyone,

    Hit the sales today in Belfast and walking through the Castlecourt I noticed a new shop called Happy Feet…. inside it has tanks of fish on the floor and people put their feet in to get their hard skin eaten away.

    I have heard of it before but I would have thought it would be something you would want to do in private…. not in the middle of a shopping centre with a full plate glass window and everyone gawping at you as they walk past.

    They have gimmicky towels and everything on sale inside.

    I have to admit I did gawp a bit, wasn’t sure I was seeing what I thought I could see, lol…

    They do this at beauty events to, my aunt and sister had it done in the RDS in front of loads of people (my mum and I ran a mile from it, looks so yuk!)

    in fairness, their skin was very soft afterwards but I’m not into the idea of little fish eating the dead skin off my feet….eughhh!!

    I AM gonna get this done this year, said I would last yr but never got round to it…

    Just saw yest on my fb, a Czech friend of mine (living in Uk years) was visiting Prague and her 7yo dd had a go of this in shop window of salon! Said it drew loads in to the salon! So must be a lot of cultural differences in respose to the practice!!!

    Tho can’t c y her dd would need it, feet certainly not as hard used as mine! Maybe it was just for the tickles!
