WATCH: Woman Unloads Racist Rant Against Manicurist At Salon

Spouting expletives, a nail salon customer tells a manicurist that her English "is nasty" and she should not be in America.

LUTZ, FL – An unidentified woman uncorked a racist, expletive-filled rant against her manicurist during a visit to a nail salon last week. Another customer witnessed the woman's rant and caught it on video, which has since spread on social media.

The incident unfolded at the Bali Nail Spa in Lutz. The customer, a white woman, goes off on her manicurist, complaining about the nail spa's service, saying she would not leave a tip and then complains about the nail tech's English.

"Don’t move to America unless you know English or are willing to learn," the woman says. "Your language sounds nasty. It actually sounds like you were born out of hermit crab."

After the customer's outburst, the manicurist tells the woman she's "being nasty." To that, the customer responds, "I don't give a [expletive] about you. You're being nasty."

And that's when another customer weighs in and demands the woman stop her rant. "You don't call 'em hermit crabs. You're being [expletive] nasty. Get the [expletive] out."

Meanwhile, salon customer Robin Roether caught the exchange between the customers and the manicurist on video. She prefaced the video, saying, "Watch how this woman treats her nail tech. ... no one deserves this kind of treatment ever."

Roether on Saturday posted the video, which includes the explicit language, to her Facebook page.

Roether did not respond to a request via Facebook Messenger to comment on the story. By Tuesday, the video had been shared on Facebook more than 8,60o times.
