This sort of thing always makes me feel a bit uneasy. Ottawa was, fairly recently, not large or poor enough to support this sort of thing. Moving to Washington, DC in 1997 I was amazed by all the skanky-looking 'nail boutiques.' You just don't, or at least didn't, see this sort of ghetto beauty salon stuff in suburban Canada...

And, as though that weren't bad enough on its own... Ottawa being metropolitan enough for designer knock-offs is a relative novelty, too.
Chav! Inappropriately advertised on
ottawa.kijiji.ca.
