    In Chicago manicure and pedicure is done mostly in special "nail places" which seems to be severely "infiltrated" by Tai people and as I've been told men work there too (which I'm almost sure one won't find in Russia)

    There is a great story behind WHY the nail salons in both the US and Canada are run by Vietnamese. It all started with actress Tippi Hedren (best known for her roles in two Alfred Hitchcock films, The Birds and Marnie).
