There really is no reason for this other than to take your money. It can be replaced without removing everything. I do it all of the time for my clients, who say it is now nice to know that getting your nails done shouldn't hurt.
Where are you at in San Diego? I might be able to hook you up with a salon that might make getting your nails done not so painful...

Maybe it doesn't need to be done, maybe it's a money making scheme who knows. I have been to many nail salons and they always do this tho.
